    Jay Gibrani | How to Prepare Finances for Sudden Relationship Troubles/Tragedies

    In this episode, we have with us Jay Gabrani, an Accountant who left a significant position in Price Waterhouse to pursue his desire to become a businessman. True enough at the age of 25, he left his corporate career and went on to start his own businesses fulfilling a dream he kept telling his mother back in the day. It was in 2005 just right about after his first child was born did he get on real estate. He was able to make a seven-figure real estate portfolio out of it. But truth be told, it was not after many trials and challenges that he was able to reach that peak in his real estate career. Then came along, what he did not expect, the death of his wife. That’s when after that, he took many years of sabbatical to make sense of everything and to take care of his children.  Unprepared for what was to come at that time, as spouses, they did not have anything, like insurance, wills, and things to this effect. All he had was his real estate properties and these saw them through those times to tide them over. After years of hiatus, he realized so many lessons and that’s when he put up Prepared Fathers to empower fathers and spouses, for that matter, to take financial responsibility seriously for their own family’s welfare and for what is unforeseeable to come. Listen in to Jay as he walks us down his journey of making it big in real estate despite of many setbacks as well as the trial that shook his life and his children’s, made him retreat from the world for quite a while and the lessons those circumstances brought about; not to mention the confident spirit that made him rose from the bottom and began an enterprise that would empower other fathers to secure their family’s future.   What You Will Discover in This Episode: It's not about resources it's about being resourceful Why you need to exercise due diligence especially when you become a more sophisticated investor How real estate saved him and his family a whole lot from financial problems during that most difficult time in his life How to prepare yourself for life's curveballs ahead Why did he start his business "Prepared Fathers" What are "money apps" and how do these helps organize your life A thing or two about saving and investing, and being creative in earning money at a young age What are the checklists you need into consideration to be financially prepared?    Quotes: “It’s not about resources, it’s about being resourceful.” “First step, you must get a “Will” because if something happens, the last thing you want your family to deal with is the financial stress on top of whatever emotional stress.” “The non-negotiable in my house, you must figure out ways that you're going to earn money because they always want things.”“I have a saying with the children's skills, pay the bills.” “What skills do I teach my kids? They are: marketing skills, sales skills and investing skills.” “As long as you're teaching your children that they can be in science, in art, in sport, whatever it is, it doesn't matter, whatever their passion is, it's great. They can utilize those skills.”   Resources: For financial checklist, you must need to know about, click here: www.preparedfathers.com/fire Connect with Jay Gabrani Website LinkedIn Facebook Pinterest Instagram   Resources: No Money Down by Robert G.

It doesn't cost you anything until you need it; but have the money ready for your next one, so that if you do see something that you want, you've got the money and you have at that point can refinance." "There's other ways to refinance, it's not always doing a cash out and pulling out the money and having a higher mortgage."
