Show Notes
Have you ever wanted to know an answer so bad that you were willing to do literally anything to get the answer? Well our guest today is Josh Rhodes and his question was this: “how do you build wealth?” As a result of this question he sent out 50 emails to some of the most successful people he knew of and before he knew it he was interviewing these people, recording their conversations, then started a podcast, and now has done over 200 of these interviews for his show.
Joshua Rhodes is the founder of Rhodes To Wealth, and the Rhodes To Wealth podcast, a platform set out to provide wealth building advice, tips and strategies from the world’s most successful wealth building experts. As a first-generation college graduate, the idea and thought of how to ‘build wealth’ was not something that Josh was exposed to much while growing up in Houston, Texas. Once out of college, he found himself in an outside sales role in a leading cyber security company, living lean, and building some disposable income. After years of saving his money, he went hunting for advice on what to do next. Rather than ‘blindly’ dumping his money into an asset he’s heard others talk about, he decided to take matters into his own hands - searching for answers in books, articles and from experts. As Josh tore through his wealth building journey, he found that the best way for him to fully grasp wealth building was to invest in himself, and that is how Rhodes To Wealth was born. His goal with the Rhodes To Wealth platform and by talking to wealth building experts is to help non-traditional wealth building Millennials, like himself, who feel they have enough money to invest, but not enough knowledge to do it confidently, find a path that leads them to financial freedom - and hopefully early retirement.
