    EP. #23 - Successful Entrepreneur and Real Estate Broker - Frank DiTommaso

    In this weeks episode, I've decided to do something a little different.  Usually I have a guest on the show that is involved in some facet of the entertainment industry with the intention to be motivational and inspiring.  This week I have Frank DiTommaso, a successful entrepreneur and real estate broker, to share is story about how he became a successful main stay in the NY real estate game and almost lost everything on an investment gone bust. He walks us through the downward spiral of his investment, how he almost lost everything, managed to keep his head above water and come out on the other side more successful than before.   Frank DiTommaso also hosts his own weekly podcast... " REAL TALK" with Frank DiTommaso.   available on: spotify, google podcast, stitch, radio public, pocket cast and anchor.fm.
