Growing up, Wonderful Togbey believed in the same things we all do about growing up: Do good in school, go to college, and get a good job.
He did do things.
Wonderful became an engineer. but when he realized he didn’t like the road his life was headed. He wanted freedom with his time. He wanted the opportunity to see his family in Togo when he wanted. He had already missed birthdays, celebrations…and he didn’t want to miss anymore.
At a conference, Wonderful met a motivational speaker, Casanova Brooks.
Casanova Brooks offered a way for Wonderful to achieve all of the things he wanted. But the answer Casanova was sharing wasn’t a fancy app or tech solution like he expected.
It was real estate.
That one speech changed Wonderful’s life in under 2 years.
This episode is the wonderful story behind that journey Wonderful took from a dedicated engineer to successful multi-property real estate investor.
