How did you start your investment journey? I think that question is truthful because there's the property investment journey, and someone sometimes has to think about investing in themselves. I think that's a more significant part. So before I guess we get into how I started my property investing journey, I spent a lot of time and money investing in myself and investing myself back then. And this was before Facebook was even created, where you'd have to listen to CDs.
There was no YouTube. So I spent 11 years at Westpac, and during that time, every day at lunch hour or after hours, I was sitting on the train, et cetera. I'd be reading books about, you know, success mentality, psychology, sales, relationship skills, et cetera. And that was the investment to myself. That investment naturally led me to success in property investing. And so when I look at my property journey, it's because I bought 15 properties when I was 27 years old, being technically broke in the Western suburbs. of Sydney, which back then was only $200 ,000 and now they're all a million dollars each.
Many would ask me, why did I do that? And I go, it's no different to why you should be doing things that most people don't want to do. It's because of my mentality. So the investment was really into me first and then to the success of buying property, which is doing things that other people don't want to do so that you achieve. Stuff that most people want to achieve
