Billionaire Fireside Chat: Grant Cardone on Raising Capital, Real Estate & Bitcoin

Описание: In this exclusive billionaire fireside chat, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Grant Cardone to talk about cash, scale, real estate, and why he’s now blending apartment cash flow with Bitcoin liquidity.

From taking a $350M Boca Raton asset out of bankruptcy from Blackstone, to raising $1.8B+ in equity directly from investors instead of Wall Street, Grant walks through how he thinks about capital, risk, and building a portfolio designed to last decades.

What you’ll learn:
💰 Why Grant never trusted cash — and how that shaped his entire wealth strategy
🏢 The single rule in real estate he says should be repeated 13 times, not three
📈 Why he avoids 3–5 year PE-style real estate funds and insists on 10-year holds
🌍 How he uses YouTube + social media instead of JP Morgan to raise capital
🧠 His mental model for scaling from billions to many billions (“leave what’s good”)
🏗️ The four levers that really control a real estate deal — and where you tap out
₿ The “$40B lesson” from not layering Bitcoin over 12+ years of cash flow
🤝 Why ethical operators should raise money — and how it turns clients into lifelong partners

Recorded live at the Family Office Club Super Summit, this conversation is aimed at CEOs, founders, family offices, and serious operators who want to think bigger about capital, distribution, and durable wealth.
