A police raid on his father's pub triggered a nervous breakdown. The speaker met a business partner at a networking event in Peterborough the following week, and together they bought 20 properties in their first year. He claims he became a millionaire before 31 through the partnership and their training company, Progressive Property.
The police turned up. Two guys got out this small reinforced van and they beat the shit out of my dad. I was working in my dad's pub and my dad had a massive nervous breakdown in the pub in front of everyone. Started screaming, squealing, convulsing, foaming. I've never seen anything like it. I managed to grab him and pull him outside the front of the pub and get him on the front lawn away from everyone, although they were still all looking out the bay window to see what was going on. But someone had called the police. I was like, go do something about it. Within a week, I'd gone to this networking event locally in Peterborough. It was a property and business meetup. The last guy I met at the bar was my business partner. In that first year, we bought 20 properties with his money. Then we set up my training business, Progressive Property, and started selling deals to other people. I became a millionaire just before age 31.
