You know there's a whole lot of garbage online there about "Passive income this.
Residual income that." And your and my job is to figure out what's freaking real
and what's hype? Then what's fake? Because you know what? There's a lot of fake out
there. My name is Kris Krohn. I became financially free at the age of 26.
I'm here to co-create financial freedom with you. My whole channel now with
hundreds and hundreds of hundreds of videos is all designed to empower you to
live the life of your dreams. Today, we got a question coming in for all the way
from Down Under and Australia. From a young man named Jordan, 19 years old,
working three part-time jobs. Trying to figure out what's fake, what's baloney.
How do you get the real thing? And how do you find a mentor? Coming your way next.
-My name is Jordan Raymond. I am 19 years old. I live in Perth, WI, Australia. I have
3 part-time jobs. Labouring, fast food place and petrol station. And I've been
looking at passive income online not only to help myself but to help my
father struggling with bills a lot and I just I want to be able to help him out.
And move out so that we can get a place.
But there's a lot of bullshit about passive income online regarding real
estate, stocks, trades. I can't really grasp a firm starting place. And I feel
like a mentor or someone that can help me start and get through it
is what I need. And I'm hoping you guys would be able to help me start off and
perfectly get somewhere. Alright, thanks." -So, Jordan. Seriously, it's a really good
question, right? I mean, I get it. There's a lot of stuff out there that that's not
good and it's just fake and they just basically a lot of people want your
money to sell a really hot idea, a personal or residual income. I fully get
it. Because when I started my journey of real estate, that's what I found. I found
that there was a lot of garbage out there. I found there are a lot of things
that in the end, after I researched them, I could find the loophole and be like, "Oh,
man. This person just sold this idea but it's half-baked.
Like it's not real. There's no real fulfillment. There's no real anything
behind it." So, I just want you to know that I really get where you're coming
from. You know, it's interesting when I put all of this together years ago
started became financially free, I had to ask myself a question. "What am I going to do
with my life now that I'm financially free?" I don't need to work anymore.
And I don't have to earn more money. And so what am I going to do? For 6 months,
I've tried retirement. Which was really stupid for a you know, 27 year old then
after I turned 27, like spent 6 months of his life trying to do nothing. Drove
me mad. Oh, my gosh. It was just... It felt so wrong. It was like I was denying some
kind of inner purpose that said there's more life. "Kris, you got to seize it." I
believe that what sits inside all of us are bigger dreams and bigger mission and
bigger purpose. But we can allow the scarcity and the lack of money to get us
obsessed with the lack and just trying to solve that scarcity fear-based
problem that frankly is a level of selfishness. Which is how do I freaking
take care of my needs so that I can live the life on terms that I want? And when
you're in that pursuit, you think you know what you want. But I'm telling you
right now it's only when you become financially free that you really start
figuring out your character, who you really are and what
your greater mission and purpose is. Because for most of you if you didn't
have to work, you would be saving 40, 50, 60 hours of primetime hours every week.
And what would you do with that? You might try sandy beaches at first. You
might try just kind of traveling. But I'm going to tell you at least for me and many
people I know that you can't retire mission and purpose based on an amount
of money. It can't be bought. Which means this: You're asking a great
question. "How do you figure out what's real? How do you figure out what's not."
And in the end, you've got to follow not just logically what makes sense. You got
to follow your intuition. Most of my business is dictated on what resonates
with me. Because we're actually creatures of feeling. And I want to do what
ultimately is going to create happiness, peace, joy and the emotions that I enjoy
feeling. And I've learned that my logic has the ability to take me down the
wrong road. My logic can define me. It can tell me everything adds up and something
feels wrong and I ignore that feeling. And then things go wrong. Sometimes, I act
on something that feels right and at launch, living makes no sense at all. So,
when you find something like that, like if you watch these videos, you're like,
"Okay, Kris. You feel real to me but I don't know if that's baloney. I don't
know if you're really financially free." You know, I get that. But if there's that
feeling inside that intuition in those quiet moments that says"Pursue this." Yhen
that's how I live my life. I pursue. And I never doubt that feeling. I act on it. And
I know that there's always good, useful productive learning that can come from
it. Right now, you're looking for a mentor. You're looking for someone that can set
you on the right path in the game of real estate and building wealth and
having a real passive income. I know that my students are actually creating that
that are actually acting on what I'm teaching them. I have others that are not
acting on it because they have excuses. I got others that I'm kicking their pants
to come to my event. Because once they do it'll freaking rip them open, tear them
open. Do a deep dive of just figuring out who they really are. And then all the
sudden, they come back from the event they start crushing it real estate. And
so, could I be the mentor for you? I might. You need to... You're going to need to get
in touch with that intuition and act on It. And trust it and develop a
relationship with yourself to say, "Hey, if I'm feeling that way and that's what
feels right. Then I'm going to pursue that. And I'm going to go after that. No
matter what cost, no matter what the consequences." So,
that you out at least that going for you. So, listen. Here you are, you're wondering
what is my next step. I'm going to tell you right now. You are right, you do need to
find a mentor. And I'm telling you to find one that resonates with you. And
then make sure that you don't expect the whole world for a really tiny investment.
All of us need to start investing in ourselves. And in the beginning, if you
pay a small amount, you're probably going to get knowledge and some training. If
you pay more, you're going to get hands-on help. If you pay a ton, someone's going to do
it for you. And so, while you're young and 19 and working a ton of part-time jobs
and trying to get it figured out, you need to ask yourself where you're at in
the market right now. Training and education and you being hands-on might
be the perfect place for you right now. If you're actually good at saving money
and paying yourself first like I talked about in my videos, then you might have
enough set aside where you actually want someone to come in and execute and do it
with you or for you. Either way, we all get to the point in our life where we
need to invest in ourselves or do it on our own. Doing it on your own can be
really, really risky. It doesn't always work out the way that you want. That's my
advice, Jordan. I hope it's helpful for you. Thank you so much for submitting
this video. And I think I've given you multiple options of where you could go
from this point. For those of you that have that question like Jordan, want to
know what's real, what's fake, I'm inviting you to click the link in the
description below. And get a chance to talk to a member of my team and also
pick up my book for free. And that book is designed to be... I could have written a
400 page book. I crammed it into a handful of pages. So, I could give you the
potent action steps of creating wealth to go from nothing to millions. I hope
you appreciate that because we live in a busy world where sometimes we just want
to drink the potent. And I've put that potency in there for that reason and
purpose. And also entitle you to a call with my team. We're going to step into your
shoes and just ask, "Hey, is this real? Are you real? Is this the right step for you?"
And if it is, take action on it, make it happen. Either way, if you're 19 or at any
age and you got the drive and the passion, you decide that you're going to
conquest it no matter what and you're going to win at this, then if as you never
give up or a sort or go to failure, it's going to eventually happen. You're going to
move in that direction. So, that's the big thing is take action on what resonates.
Hey, thanks so much for watching this video. Hope you guys
appreciate it. If you have more questions of your own that you want to submit, you
got instructions in the link below on how to do that. I might be making my next
video for you to help you on your way giving you the mentoring you need to
become financially free. Take care of my friend. You can have it all. make it
happen.
