JOE DILLON, the founder of TRUE WEALTH TRIBE, grew up in poverty and they couldn't afford a two-bedroom apartment for his family of five.
Even when things didn't appear to be going well on the outside, he knew he was capable of great things. "As a child, I clung to the belief".
He believes it was a blessing to have been laid off. While working, he became interested in personal development at the age of 23 and decided to flip vehicles on the side. A series of events led him to meet a guy who was already flipping vehicles, which he did, and while doing so, he got laid off and worked full-time at flipping cars until he met a guy who was flipping houses.
Instead of 2-3k margins, he found that houses can have 20-30k margins. He was so pumped at first that there were days when he'd drive home from work and smile uncontrollably
because he knew what was about to happen.
