In this episode, we interviewed Joe Bird, a real estate agent and investor with a unique path to financial independence. Joe shares how his family's rental properties, dating back to the 1940’s, set the stage for his success and ambitions. Transitioning from music to real estate, Joe discusses the changing market dynamics and emphasizes the importance of focusing on the numbers in investment decisions. Joe's strategy centers on building a diverse, low-capital portfolio of real estate that he’ll use with his family as a source of retirement income. He also shares his plans for expanding his real estate holdings and generating legacy wealth. Tune in for Joe's entrepreneurial insights on The Real FI Podcast.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
