Description: Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, hosted by Paul Mark Morris and brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I sit down with my friend and fellow real estate pro, Gary Gold — the man who sold the Playboy Mansion, to dig into what it really takes to start investing in real estate, even if you’re starting with zero dollars. We talk about how to find “ugly duckling” properties that others overlook, structure your first partnership, and analyze deals the smart way. Whether you’re an agent ready to make your first investment or a beginner looking to build wealth through real estate, this conversation breaks down the fundamentals that actually work.
