And in today's show, Michael has two things to say: First, *the average American won’t make it without becoming an investor.* Second, there’s good news— *this year will be horrible for everyone but investors.* Michael says we’re sitting in the *best housing market in a decade.* He’s putting his money where his mouth is, pulling a *million dollars* out of his properties’ equity *to buy more,* starting now. He’s *aggressively making offers* and getting deals for a fraction of their face value. Using a simple, but easily repeatable “wealth formula,” Michael has *become the millionaire* next door, and he says *with just 20 minutes per day, you can, too.* This is a masterclass from one of the most respected real estate investors in the country. Michael shares exactly how the average American can *become an “elite investor” with his 20 minutes per day* exercise, the properties Michael is looking to buy now, the two (yes, two) offers you should make on every house, and why he never bets on appreciation (and we agree). Michael says *this market could last another year* —are you going to make a move or wish you had?
