183: How to Achieve Financial Freedom and Lifestyle Flexibility With Matt Raad & Kevin Bees, Profit Maximisation Expert Life Changing Questions For Business Owners

    • Business

Matt Raad has created financial freedom in his life, starting from zero and using a very unconventional method. Both he and his wife, Liz Raad are website investors, which means they use digital assets to generate their cash flow and wealth. 
 
They were one of the first in the world to realise that they could buy websites, renovate them like real estate, and then sell or keep them for cash flow.
 
Matt started out as a zoologist with his wife Liz, buying their first business, expanded into multi-million dollar mergers & acquisitions, and then transitioned to investing in online businesses where the cashflow returns were so much better.
 
As successful entrepreneurs and investors, these days they love teaching beginners how to reach 6 & 7-figure website portfolios using a similar strategy to buying & renovating traditional real estate.
