A short YouTube conversation (recorded April 3, 2025) between Hannah Hammond and another speaker about leadership and delegation. The speakers argue that owners who try to "wear every hat" are thinking like employees rather than leaders; they cite an investor (Sean Lynch) who managed 66 rentals and later regretted not delegating sooner, and discuss how some asset classes (Airbnb, storage, etc.) feel like a second job unless the owner wants to operate them directly.

I think so many people, they're such control freaks maybe, or fear driven, or they're like, I can do it. I was talking about this with Sean lynch, our friend. You know how he just did it all and he didn't delegate anything for so long. And he was managing. Building a logistics oil company. He was managing 66 rentals. He was doing all these things. And his biggest regret was not delegating sooner.
100%. We have a lot of investors that go through the path of Airbnb or storage or whatever the trend is at the moment, and then they'll wrap back around to us and go, I am so sick of doing this all myself. I thought it was passive. It is not. It's like a second job. And I think that's the smart way to do it. Unless you want to build a business in the asset class.
Right.
If that's your end goal, then, yeah, go do it yourself.
Which is what you ended up doing.
