In one envelope, I’ll find an offer letter I sent out, returned with an angry message scrawled across it. Someone will tell me my $1,100 offer is an insult for a property they claim is worth $35,000. I just laugh and toss it in the trash. That’s just part of the process.
One of the best parts of my week happens when I go live on Facebook to open my mail. I’m usually joined by a mix of coaching students and people curious about land investing. There’s a real excitement in turning on the camera and just diving into the day’s mail, completely unscripted.

It makes you wonder: why are some of the smartest business minds in the world buying up millions of acres of land? What’s so great about it?
There’s a point where making more money doesn't make you any happier. Hedge fund manager Ray Dalio talks about this—the law of diminishing returns. Once you have enough, chasing more can have negative consequences. It’s a lesson I had to learn the hard way.
