On this episode, we welcomed Cody Berman, founder of Gold City Ventures, to share his journey to financial independence and the evolution of his business. Cody discovered the concept of financial independence at the age of 19 and was on a warpath to achieve it by the age of 24. A catalyst for his mindset shift was reading "The 4-Hour Work Week" by Tim Ferris, which taught him not to trade hours for dollars. Another key influence to guide his financial life was Mr. Money Mustache, who taught him the simple principles of financial independence–spend less than you make, and invest the difference!
Cody pursued various side hustles, including podcasting, blogging, freelance writing, and video editing to cover his expenses while in college. After graduation, he took a job in commercial real estate lending but eventually quit to go on a book tour and pursue his own digital products business. Cody now runs Gold City Ventures, where he teaches people how to make money on Etsy and has since expanded his business to have 13 workers.
In our conversation Cody admits he made some mistakes along the way, such as buying properties in not-so-great areas and becoming too trigger-happy with cash flow. He emphasizes the importance of grounding oneself in relationships and finding meaning beyond money. This was a down-to-earth episode that you won’t want to miss!
