BTM137: NFL Players Transition From Employee to Entrepreneur
The transition from employee to entrepreneur can be one of the most difficult things to do in your life. It seems as though you are leaving a life of stability to a life of uncertainty.
But in today’s day and age, more and more of us are see the writing on the wall. Our safe and secure job is not a safe as we’d like to believe.
In this episode I decided to use the NFL industry to study football players and their transition to normal life (and for the savvy, to an entrepreneurial life). Almost 80% of NFL players go broke with 2 years of leaving the league. Why is this? Could there be some parallels between our transition from a W2 job to Real Estate?
Today we study the do’s and don’t when setting up your financial future, lifestyle design future and the world after being a lifelong employee.

BTM136: The Top Real Estate Markets For Investors in 2020 with Jason Hartman
The United States offers nearly 400 distinct and diverse markets while most media pundits characterize the “housing market” as if it were a single entity. Real estate cannot be described that simply – It’s just not accurate. There is NO such thing as a United States real estate market. However, there IS an Atlanta, Georgia or a Dallas, Texas real estate market.
On today’s show, we take a deep dive into the US real estate market and break it down with many examples of cities and states to invest in next.
Today’s guest, Jason Hartman has been involved in several thousand real estate transactions and has owned income properties in 11 states and 17 cities. Not only do we discuss real estate markets but also team building and the benefits of inflation.
Key Points From This Episode:
- Distinguishing the 3 real estate markets
- The “Thou Shall Not Gamble” mantra
- Why investing in a linear market is best
- A run-through all of the real estate markets in the US
- The secret inflation benefits of investing
