Break the Rules to Build Your Wealth with Chris Prefontaine

Описание: In this episode, Jim welcomes the extraordinary Chris Prefontaine, founder of Smart Real Estate Coach, for a deep dive into the mindset, structure, and discipline required to build financial freedom through creative real estate investing. Prefontaine shares lessons from the 2008 crash, explains why coaching matters, and offers practical pathways for people looking to break free from traditional financial systems and build sustainable wealth.

3 Key Takeaways:
1. Creative real estate is a discipline, not a tactic: Chris outlines a three-step approach to real estate success.
2. Coaching is about accountability, not just motivation: Real transformation comes from daily tracking, public accountability, and consistent feedback—not from a one-time seminar.
3. Cash flow over Nest eggs: Chris and Jim challenge conventional retirement thinking, offering examples of individuals who liquidated 401(k)s and replaced stagnant savings with income-producing assets.

Let this episode serve as a prompt to evaluate your current trajectory—are you building wealth, or just accumulating hope?
