“I grew up on social media, and we've kind of lost the art of communication. We've kind of lost the ability to develop rapport and relationships in person because it's something that's not practiced anymore.” - Zack Knight Welcome back to Tactical Friday! I welcome Taylor Cu back to share some amazing resources and tips on how he stayed motivated throughout his journey.
Taylor Cu went to college for mechanical engineering and was hustling to be a professional hip-hop dancer on the side. He was able to land his first gig on Jimmy Kimmel Live and got burned by the choreographer and never ended up getting paid. Combining this with his experience in working in the construction industry, he realized that relying on someone or a high-paying job wasn't going to help him achieve his goal of achieving generational wealth for his family. He found Multifamily Real Estate to be a strong and efficient vehicle to become financially free. He quickly realized that similar to dance, there is an art and a process in everything that we do.
Now at age 26, Taylor is on his journey to go from the Hip Hop Dancing Engineer to Multifamily Real Estate Investor. As the host of the Multifamily Artists Podcast, he is on a mission to learn from multifamily family real estate investors to find out how they found their rhythm and created their own sound investments to build generational wealth for his family legacy.

Key Quote/s:
“Communication has changed in so many different ways that trying to communicate via social media is just extremely different in trying to get your message across. Your tone, how you deliver it, and your pathway to that message, it makes a huge point.” - Taylor Cu
“It's one of those things that it's not just about self-development in the professional space, it's about self-development in the internal space as you create better communication and create better ideas with getting your message and receiving a message from someone.” - Zack Knight
