If I had to choose one skill I could instantly have a better understanding of, investing would be a worthy contender. Things like the stock market and real estate are topics I’ve been introduced to more recently thanks to books like The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsay, and Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosoki, but, I have a hard time grasping the strategy behind these topics. That’s why I was so excited to talk to Ben Mizes on today’s episode of Founderverse. Ben is the founder and CEO of Clever Real Estate, a startup that helps homeowners save thousands on real estate commission, and is also a real estate investor in St. Louis, Missouri. On this episode, we talk about how to get started in the world of real estate, why he sold all of stock market investments in exchange for real estate investments, and how he grossed over $100,000 in two years through garage-sailing. Connect with Ben on Twitter @benmizes or on Insagram @guy_ben. Visit Clever's website at https://listwithclever.com/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/holsteinstudios/message
