I've Reinvented Myself More Times Than I Can Count. You Can Too.
Seventeen years on LAPD motors. I could have stayed three more years and retired at 41âbut then I would have had to wait until 55 to collect any pension. So I made a choice: start a new book instead.
I pivoted to real estate and spent the next decades building what most agents never achieve: a recurring referral income stream. Systems that worked while I didn't.
Then came the divorce. Thirty years of marriage, and suddenly I was writing another new book whether I wanted to or not.
But here's the thing about rock bottom: the only direction left is up. And when you've already reinvented yourself once, twice, you realizeâyou can do it again.
So at 55, I saw the writing on the wall. The industry was changing. AI was coming for everything. I went all-in on AI systems and automation.
I delved into places where I thought my mind would explode. I did the low, hard crawl through spaces where it was obvious my brain had begun to lose its neuroplasticity. There were days I wanted to quit. Days where nothing made sense.
But I made it through. And as a consequence, my mind has never been sharper.
If I can do this at 55âafter everythingâyou can too.
And for those with a secured retirement? Ask yourself honestly: how secure is "secure" really? The world is changing faster than any pension can account for.
We're at the beginning of the AI revolution. This is the ground floor. The people who position themselves now will own their markets for decades. I figured it out. Now I'm showing others the path.
