In this engaging conversation, Patrick Grimes shares his journey from a career in automation robotics and machine design to becoming a private investor. He details the lessons learned from experiencing foreclosure during the 2008/2009 market downturn, which led him to develop his "Three Rings of Investment" philosophy: seeking recession resilience, non-correlation, and insulation from AI disruption.

Stanton, known as the "Philly Pawn Boss," shared his fascinating journey and insights from running a pawn shop that has been in his family for generations.
We kicked off the conversation by diving into Stanton's unique upbringing in Chester, Pennsylvania, where he was influenced by a family legacy that dates back to the early 1900s. He dispelled common misconceptions about the pawn business, explaining that it primarily involves making loans on collateral, much like a bank does with mortgages, but with a wider range of items beyond real estate.
Stanton's energy and humor made this one of the funniest episodes we've recorded. He shared stories about his successful ventures in the pawn industry, including high-value items like jewelry and collectibles, and how he has diversified into real estate and community service. His commitment to self-promotion and community engagement has helped reshape the perception of pawn shops, especially after the popularity of shows like "Pawn Stars."
We also explored Stanton's impressive work ethic and daily routines, which have contributed to his success.

In this inspiring episode of Capital Hacking, we had the privilege of interviewing Aaron Hale. Aaron Hale’s journey is one of unparalleled resilience and transformation. He served 14 years in both the Navy, as a chef to the Commander of the US 6th Fleet, and in the Army as a team leader in Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), one of the military’s most dangerous roles. After an IED explosion left him blind, Aaron defied expectations by becoming an EOD instructor, motivational speaker, mountain climber, white water kayaker, and marathon runner. Four years later, Aaron faced another life-altering challenge when bacterial meningitis took his hearing, rendering him completely deaf.
Undeterred, Aaron rose again. He now shares his story through speaking engagements, runs marathons, and co-manages a thriving chocolate company with his wife. He’s also a dedicated husband, father of three, a real estate investor, and the host of the Point of Impact podcast. In 2023, Aaron made history as the first blind and deaf person to complete the world's toughest foot race, Badwater 135.

Join us on Capital Hacking as we explore the extraordinary journey of James Stewart, a successful pawnshop owner turned breathwork and cold exposure advocate. We kick things off with captivating stories from the pawnshop world, unveiling the bizarre items people pawn and the role of technology in authenticating valuables. But the real adventure begins when we delve into the profound impact of breathwork and cold exposure on our lives. James shares the science behind these practices, even guiding you through a simplified Wim Hof breathing technique. Discover the secrets to unlocking your body's potential and boosting your well-being in this transformative episode.
Key Points:1. Pawn Shop Operations: James explained how pawn shops operate, emphasizing that pawn shops are primarily in the business of providing collateralized loans. They assess the value of items customers bring in, offer loans based on those items, and give customers a specified period to repay the loan with interest. If the customer doesn't repay, the pawn shop can sell the item. The business varies depending on the types of items, their market demand, and state regulations.
-
Breathwork: James discussed his journey into breathwork, including the influence of attending events by figures like Wayne Dyer and Joe Dispenza. He shared that breathwork, especially the Wim Hof Method, played a significant role in changing his life. He described how the Wim Hof Method involves intense, controlled breathing techniques followed by breath holds. This practice can shift the nervous system from a sympathetic state (fight or flight) to a parasympathetic state (rest and digest). The method can improve focus, reduce stress, and even influence metabolism through the activation of brown fat.
-
Cold Exposure: James touched on the benefits of cold exposure, which is often combined with breathwork in the Wim Hof Method. Exposure to cold water can lead to a rush of adrenaline and noradrenaline, improving focus and resilience. It also activates brown fat, leading to increased energy expenditure and fat burning.
-
Transformative Access: James described breathwork as a transformative access point. The conscious practice of controlling one's breath can impact various aspects of life, from managing stress to enhancing focus and overall well-being. By harnessing the power of breath, individuals can gain better control over their physiological responses and potentially transform their lives.
Quotables:*- "Breathwork is like exercise. The way you breathe can affect your physical and mental state profoundly."
- "Every time you're taking a breath, the direction of your breath, the depth of the breath, pace of your breath, and whether you're using your nose or your mouth, can all influence your physiology and how you approach the world around you."*

Kaitlyn McKay, a stay-at-home military mom and wife, took immediate action after being inspired by real estate investing podcasts. About eight months ago, she began listening to podcasts on real estate investing and decided to implement the strategies she learned. Motivated by her newfound knowledge, Kaitlyn joined Brian Lubin's Action Academy and took massive action. As a result, she has already acquired two real estate investments - an Airbnb house hack and a self-storage facility that she is currently closing on.
During the episode, it is mentioned that Kaitlyn joined Brian Lubin's Action Academy, indicating her participation in a coaching program or community led by Brian Lubin. Growing up in a family with eight children fostered a sense of scarcity and competition within Kaitlyn. However, after joining the Action Academy and learning from mentors in the real estate community, Kaitlyn's mindset began to shift. She realized that she had the power to choose her own path and pursue her goals.
Kaitlyn's mindset transformation was influenced by conversations with successful individuals in their 20s who had achieved real estate success with multiple properties. This realization empowered Kaitlyn, as she recognized that if they could do it, she could too. Learning from these mentors and gaining confidence in her own abilities, Kaitlyn started to believe in her potential for success in real estate.
Initially, Kaitlyn had fears and doubts about investing in real estate, concerned about potential financial losses and holding a scarcity mindset where every penny counted. However, after purchasing her first house hack and experiencing the positive impact of Airbnb, her mindset began to change. Witnessing the difference it made, Kaitlyn became more optimistic about her real estate journey.
Kaitlyn's mindset shift coincided with her enrollment in the Action Academy in late October, suggesting that the resources and support she found within the academy played a significant role in her transformation. She emphasized the importance of living in an atmosphere of abundance and giving back to others, aligning with the mindset promoted by the podcast hosts.
Overall, Kaitlyn's journey from a scarcity to an abundance mindset highlights the transformative power of learning from mentors and surrounding oneself with a supportive community.

In this episode, the hosts and guest emphasize the importance of implementing a spiritual program in recovery. The guest shares their initial anger upon hearing a famous 12-step speaker state that life doesn't necessarily improve when one stops using drugs or alcohol. However, they soon realized that true sobriety and personal growth require replacing substance use with spirituality.
The guest explains that addiction is not solely a physical or mental issue but also a spiritual sickness, often referred to as a "soul sickness." Substances were used to fill a void and temporarily escape pain and problems. However, even after removing substances, the void remained. Therefore, replacing substance use with spirituality is crucial to address this soul sickness.
The spiritual program discussed in the episode involves embracing pain and discomfort in recovery. Instead of avoiding or numbing the pain, individuals are encouraged to confront it, identify it, and take inventory. Sharing this pain with a trusted friend or mentor is also emphasized. Additionally, the program highlights the importance of letting go of resentments and practicing honesty, openness, and willingness.
The guest and host believe that these principles of a spiritual program are not exclusive to alcoholics or addicts but should be applicable to everyone. They argue that if everyone were to adopt these principles, such as being honest, open, and willing, and letting go of resentments, it would lead to personal growth and a healthier society. Overall, the episode highlights the transformative power of incorporating spirituality into the recovery process and its potential benefits for individuals overcoming addiction.
MJ Gottlieb, the guest on the podcast, is making a significant impact in the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. The host mentions that MJ has lived an extraordinary life and has positively influenced not just a few, but hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.

They go from moving at a high speed, like 150 miles per hour, to feeling like they are on a scooter. This change in pace can be difficult for them, leading to feelings of not providing value anymore.
The speaker emphasizes the importance of providing value to veterans in their civilian lives. He highlights that thoughts of ending life can arise when veterans feel like they are no longer contributing or providing value. This underscores the need for support and resources to help veterans find purpose and meaning in their post-military lives.
Additionally, the speaker introduces Aerial Recovery, a nonprofit charity organization that he co-founded with his wife. Aerial Recovery's mission is to heal veterans by repurposing, retraining, and redeploying them to assist in natural disasters and combat human trafficking.
They discuss the importance of prevention, education, and aftercare in addressing human trafficking. They emphasize that preventing children from entering into trafficking is the most effective form of rescue. They stress the need for education to raise awareness about the issue and equip individuals with the knowledge and tools to protect themselves and others. Additionally, they highlight the significance of aftercare for survivors of human trafficking, particularly children who have been forced into performing sex acts and have grown up in a life of exploitation. Aftercare involves providing support, healing, and rehabilitation for these survivors.

When it comes to buying real estate, it's crucial to approach it with a farming mindset rather than a hunting mentality. This means taking the time to educate yourself and establish a solid foundation, rather than rushing into the process for quick success. Just like farming, real estate requires planting seeds, nurturing them, and allowing them to grow over time. It's not an instant achievement, but rather a patient and gradual process. The episode emphasizes the importance of avoiding the allure of overnight success portrayed in popular shows. Instead, viewers are encouraged to view real estate as a long-term investment that demands nurturing and care. By dedicating time to educate yourself and build a reliable team, you set yourself up for success in the real estate market.
One topic that the episode delves into is the concept of human capital and its significance in real estate investing. The host and guest discuss how human capital, which encompasses individuals' skills, knowledge, and abilities, is a valuable asset that can be leveraged in real estate investing. They introduce the term "sweat equity" and liken it to a "wealth internship," highlighting the idea that investing time and effort into real estate can yield substantial returns.
The guest, Daniel, shares his personal experience of transitioning from a career in technology to becoming a real estate investor. He emphasizes the abundance of opportunities for individuals to actively participate in growing real estate enterprises. The host mentions internships as a means to gain experience and industry insights, expressing a desire to educate people about the possibilities in real estate.
Furthermore, the episode underscores the importance of networking and harnessing human capital in real estate investing.

This exemplifies the value of utilizing human capital to establish connections with industry professionals and explore potential opportunities.
Overall, the episode highlights the significance of human capital in real estate investing, encouraging listeners to recognize and invest in their own skills and abilities to achieve success in the field.
In this episode of Capital Hacking, hosts Josh and John interview Brian Luebben from Action Academy.

In this podcast episode, the speaker emphasizes the importance of setting big, audacious goals and working towards them as a way to live a fulfilling life. As entrepreneurs who have earned the ability to have freedom, they are not meant to just sit on the beach and do nothing. The speaker shares his personal experience of having to slow down for a couple of months to figure out his next move after completely killing his identity as a corporate guy. He also runs a community that helps people leave corporate America and replace it with cash flow. They begin with the vision first and do the hard stuff first, which involves creating goals that support the vision, breaking them into benchmarks, and putting themselves in an accountability pod to hold each other accountable. The speaker believes that people are starved for that level of accountability.
According to the podcast episode, the key to the story is figuring out what you want. Many people are good at working hard and making money, but it is important to know what you want in life and work towards it. The host uses the analogy of driving a car down an endless highway without any gas stations on either side. Some people may be driving a Ferrari while others may be driving a Toyota, but without knowing where they want to go, they will just keep driving aimlessly. The episode emphasizes the importance of setting big goals and working towards them, as it adds spice to life. The host also suggests that people should not be emotionally attached to the end outcome or results, but rather be emotionally attached to the inputs. In other words, people should focus on the process of achieving their goals rather than the end result.
The podcast host created a 52-hour course that focused on vision, mindset, and killing old versions of yourself before beginning investing. The course aimed to get rid of all the negative thoughts and beliefs that people have about themselves before they start investing. It emphasized the importance of being in the right headspace to accept information from successful entrepreneurs who come in every week to teach and speak. The course also covered financial relationships, relationships with money, identity, and being okay with killing the version of yourself that was the corporate version of you. The goal was to slow down and figure out what you want out of life and pursue that thing. The course was filmed in Brazil and took an entire month to film and edit.

The hosts also discuss the benefits of this type of investing and geek out with Hatter over his success. Despite confusion over having two Josh's on the show, the hosts and guest provide valuable insights into the world of hospitality investing.

He has transitioned from short-term Airbnb rentals to short-term bed and breakfast boutique hotels, and has established a property company (prop co) and an operating company (op co). The bed and breakfast business pays rent to the property company and is responsible for all utilities and expenses, which protects the real estate from potential lawsuits and ensures that the business is liable for any liabilities. With over a decade of experience in the short-term rental industry, Josh Hatter has found his niche in the boutique hotel space and is passionate about hospitality.

According to the podcast episode, successful people are usually willing to help others succeed and share their expertise. However, they are also very busy and their time is valuable. The key factor for them to invest their time in someone else is to see that their time is being used effectively. They want to see that the person they are helping is taking action and making progress towards their goals. If the person they are helping is not taking action or wasting their time, they will eventually stop taking their calls. Therefore, it is important for the person seeking help to be someone who is worth investing in and to provide value to the person they are seeking help from. This can be done by taking action on the advice given, making connections for the person, or finding other ways to add value to their life or career.
The episode emphasizes that investing in personal development and taking action on advice given by successful people is crucial for achieving success. Successful people want to help, but they need to see that their time is being used effectively and that they are making a difference. To be worth investing in, one must provide some sort of value to the other person, such as doing the things they tell you to do or making connections for them. The more successful someone is, the more willing they are to help others get there. However, busy people's time is valuable, and one cannot waste it. The only reason successful people will continue to invest their time in someone is if they see that they are making a difference and taking action on the advice given. Therefore, it is essential to take action on the advice given by successful people to achieve success.
On this episode of Capital Hacking, hosts Josh McCallen and John Edwin interview Travis Baucom, an experienced real estate investor who went from owning 400 properties to having to sell them all and start over again in the self-storage space. Travis shares his story and insights into his current successful investing strategy, which involves self-storage instead of houses. The hosts and Travis also discuss the differences between house investing and commercial investing, and why Travis believes houses are not a good investment. Listeners will learn valuable lessons about real estate investing from Travis's experiences and expertise.
[00:00:55] Self-storage investing strategy.
[00:03:43] Real estate investment strategies.
[00:06:57] Business Failure and Growth.
[00:10:06] Leadership and accountability in business.
[00:13:21] Real estate investment pitfalls.
[00:16:50] Overcoming Adversity in Real Estate.
[00:19:58] Commercial Real Estate Investment.
[00:23:18] Self-storage facility management.
[00:28:06] Investing in storage facilities.
[00:30:04] Real estate investment opportunity.
Travis Baucom faced a challenging time both personally and financially, losing his employees, properties, and assets. However, he managed to turn things around by venturing into self-storage investing. He purchased all three books on self-storage investing from Amazon, read them, and listened to numerous podcasts on the subject. He began reaching out to people, conversing with brokers, and building relationships. Travis and his wife jotted down their objectives, including the amount of storage and cash flow they desired, allowing him to concentrate on developing his self-storage business. The value-add component of self-storage investing is unique compared to other real estate investments, as it primarily involves identifying demand.
In the episode, the guest speaker explains that commercial real estate is valued based on the income approach, while houses are valued based on the comparable market approach. They clarify that if you have five houses in a row, each one is likely to be worth about the same amount, regardless of their rental rates. However, with commercial real estate, such as a storage facility, if you purchase it and increase its net operating income from $100,000 to $200,000 annually, you have doubled its value. This is because commercial real estate allows for forced appreciation through business planning. The guest speaker also notes that in the case of storage facilities, they are valued solely for their real estate value, not for any additional business value. The speaker invests in commercial real estate in the Sunbelt States and near-Sunbelt States, with a focus on conservative leadership and growing populations. They currently own six facilities in Texas and plan to construct one in Austin, as well as exploring options in Oklahoma City.

About Anthony Vigilante:
Anthony is a Managing Director and head of the Global Information Technology group at MacKay Shields. He graduated from New York University with a BS in Information Systems Management and from Fordham University with an MS in Computer Science.

In this episode of Capital Hacking, host Josh McCallen interviews Marc Halpern, an expert in chemistry and private investing. Halpern shares his evolution through the world of private investing, starting from real estate and learning how to maximize his IRA to become a successful investor. He also talks about the content he created, including his expertise in phase transfer catalysis. Listeners can expect a thought-provoking and informative deep mastermind on private investing.
Marc is a successful part-real real estate investor who achieved financial freedom by doing only 1-2 deals per year as an active investor over 11 years (www.PartTimeInvestors.com). He then reached “The Ultimate Passive Investor Endgame” by transitioning out of active single-family home investing into high ROI truly passive private placement investing. He diversifies his private placements in three dimensions. For example, his self-directed Roth 401(k) is invested in 10 private placements in 7 sectors with 5 syndicators, fund managers, and project sponsors. Marc wrote two books on real estate investing and is a national speaker on the topic of successful part-time investing for pre-accredited and accredited investors.
Marc is now launching an innovative self-improvement platform called Now Be Happier that includes his latest book “Now Be Happier,” the app for iPhone “BeHappier”, the website www.NowBeHappier.com and the TEDx talk he presented in 2022 describing the first objective metric for happiness “How to Measure Your Happiness Score and Be Happier” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9MViB3tS5w).
Marc believes that financial freedom is not only about passive income but also about having the right amount of liquid assets to cover your expenses. He believes that in order to achieve financial freedom, your passive income must exceed your routine expenses, and your liquid net worth must be able to cover any special expenses you may incur.
But Marc believes that financial freedom isn't enough. He believes that in order to truly be successful, you must also be happy. He has developed a new concept called the "Ultimate Passive Investor Endgame," which is about tracking your happiness and using it as a measure of success.
Marc believes that tracking your happiness is essential for success. He believes that people should track their happiness in order to identify areas where they can improve. By tracking your happiness, you can focus on the areas of your life that need improvement and make the necessary changes.
Marc's teachings are based on the idea that happiness is the ultimate measure of success. He believes that if you are happy, you will be more productive and successful in all areas of your life. He believes that happiness should be tracked and measured in order to identify areas of improvement.
Marc's teachings are sound and achievable. By tracking your happiness and making the necessary changes, you can achieve success in all areas of your life. Happiness is the key to success, and Halpern's teachings can help you achieve it.

“In the rental housing world, especially in small multifamily and single-family, residential, single-family rental, the vast majority of the market is not institutional.” – Jay Parsons
“Construction costs have gone through the roof. I mean, everything's expensive right now, inflation impacts construction, too. And so it's been a major factor plus, now, of course, you have higher rates as well. So we're gonna see significantly fewer new starts this year than we saw last couple of years.” – Jay Parsons
“Job growth and wage growth equals a lot of housing demand. And that's a lot of traffic, knocking down your doors. But that really stopped in the second half of last year in most parts of the country. And so I think we're at a point now where, you know, obviously, the question is, when does it return?” – Jay Parsons
“If you're living in a property, like a duplex or a park property, where your neighbor is not who they say they are and they've not been through proper background screening, that's a risk to renters as well.” – Jay Parsons
“The broader world doesn't realize is that most people, even landlords, they want to help people who are truly in need of help and like figure out a bridge solution. But unfortunately, you also have at least a small contingent that's committing fraud deterrent towards out there and those people that you want to get out right away.” – Jay Parsons

“Wealth, in my opinion, consists of capital, knowing what types of capital you should be focusing on, and accumulating. Because capital is a store of value, right? So what types of capital do you accumulate that's going to go up in value in an environment that's turbulent, and that is resetting, so that what you have is valuable, and it's going to be repriced in whatever system is being rolled out in the coming years.” – MC Laubscher
“When you focus on those types of capital, which I see as wealth because if you accumulate more of it, it just becomes more and more and more valuable. And it gives you a much more well-rounded scorecard than just a bank balance and a ton of properties.” – MC Laubscher

About John Ruhlin
John will tell you, “how you love and treat people will open more doors than you can imagine.” In fact, one gifting experience (Brooks Brother experiment) has opened more doors than $10 Million in advertising could ever do.
After applying principles of generosity learned from “Attorney Paul,” John started selling the largest deals in Cutco history out of 1.5 million other reps and distributors. Yes. 1.5 million. Not only was he gifting knives but he was being asked to speak on stages around the country to teach sales and marketing teams how to build relationships in unconventional ways. Simple but powerful things like focusing your care on the executive’s spouse, the assistant, and kids.
Ruhlin Group started in 2000 and quickly broadened gifting options and strategies, but many of the original principles never changed. Knowing how and when to give gifts is just as important as what to gift. These “minor” details and expert knowledge have been tested and proven over a decade to bring a guaranteed “wow” to any industry from financial services to manufacturing widgets.
Today John and his team have created gift packages for some of the largest companies and pro sports teams in the world, but their mission and heart is to serve and take relationships for mid-sized, privately owned businesses to a new level using their Proven Process.
After spending a long time deliberating on things like is self-publishing a book a good idea, John decided to write a book that would share his ideology and the way he works in his industry to reach new levels of success.

“The 1% rule is now more of a standard and it's if the property performance is in the 1% rule, you get a pretty good chance that it's going to make at least some money for cash flow, and it's worth investigating further. So that's what the 1% rule 2% rule is.” – Matt Faircloth

“I cheated and I looked at the annual reports of Harvard and Yale and large institutions to see what they were doing with money since they had very smart people on their team. Turned out 80% of their money is not in the stock market. And that got me down the path of specializing in alternative investments that are not the same as stocks and bonds.” – Frederick Hubler

He worked 3 jobs throughout high school to help pay tuition. His entrepreneurial spirit kicked into high gear when he was a freshman in college. He started his own business and ran it successfully for almost 10 years. Real Estate was his true passion and after doing it part-time for 4 years, he decided to sell the business and go full-time with his real estate career, and he hasn't looked back since. Matt is co-owner of the Home Experts For You Team with Mike Sroka. He attributes his success in real estate to a steadfast commitment to customer satisfaction. Agents whose only goal is to close a deal or maximize their return on a single transaction is both short-sighted and disingenuous. By focusing on the best interest of his clients, he builds long-term relationships that last and result in repeat business and referrals.

Today, let’s talk about real assets and real relationships, Wall Street investing versus Main Street investing, and the concept of syndications with Russel Gray.
Real estate is a real asset. It’s as tangible and physical as gold, oil, and other things people use and depend on in the real world. On the other hand, owning a share of stocks, bonds, or mutual funds are claims on wealth, but they’re not real wealth. So, invest in essential things to build a resilient real asset portfolio. And if you want to scale faster, invest in real people and unlock private capital.
Don’t Miss this year’s Secrets of Successful Syndication on September 16th-17th!

- Stocks, bonds, or mutual funds are claims on wealth but they aren’t real wealth.

- When you create a syndication business, pick your advisory team well, even if you have to pay more.
- The syndication business is in dire need of ethical competent operators.
- People think it’s hard to go big. But it’s actually hard to be small. When you’re small, you don’t have economies of scale.
- The market is so big, there’s plenty of room for everyone.
- Russel explains the concept of syndication.
- In Wall Street investing, Wall Street funnels down the money to Main Street by originating loans.
- The money comes from Main Street, goes through Wall Street, and comes back down to Main Street.
- Main Street investors can invest directly in Main Street real estate projects through a capital aggregator or the syndicator.
- A syndicator is like a banker without the regulation.

- Russel’s tips on how to pick a market.

“Formal education will make you a living, the self-education will make you wealthy.” – Jim Rohn
“Anybody can do this (podcasting). I mean, I don’t have a college degree. I’m a firefighter. I’m not even a computer guy. So, you know, anybody can do this. It’s just getting the education. And frankly, podcasting is the best platform to do so. I’d like to think I have a college education for free through podcasting.”

About Joshua Oak
Joshua’s current investment portfolio includes partnerships in a 12-unit apartment complex and 5 single-family homes. The 12-unit complex deal took creativity to put together and formed a $20,000 personal loan from Josh’s coworker to pull it off! It is a fantastic deal and has provided Josh cash flow every month and solidified his desire to be financially free with real estate. He also owns 5 single-family homes as a 50% partner. These houses were his ‘foot in the door’ to real estate investing.
Josh loves real estate. He got his real estate license in 2017. His current strategy includes working on a cash-out refinance on the five houses and trying to save as much money as possible to take advantage of any opportunities that are about to present themselves, given the current state of the economy. His future goals include working on syndications or partnerships for larger investments, gaining experience with podcasting, and expanding his network.
