In this episode of From Adversity to Abundance, host Jamie Bateman welcomes back entrepreneur and real estate investor Nick Huber for a refreshingly bold and unfiltered conversation. Unlike his first appearance, this episode isn’t focused on Nick’s personal backstory or a single moment of adversity—instead, the two dive headfirst into some of Nick’s most controversial takes on modern life, business, health, and society. It all stems from a recent post Nick shared on X (formerly Twitter), listing 25 opinions he believes will become widely accepted over the next 20 years.
From video game addiction and hormone optimization to the future of AI, crypto, and even how 40-year-olds can (and should) take control of their health, Nick doesn't hold back—and Jamie doesn’t shy away from pushing back either. While Nick’s business track record with companies like Bolt Storage, RE Cost Seg, and Sweaty Startup (somewhere.com) speaks for itself, this conversation is more about mindset and challenging the status quo.
