Tweetable Quotes:
“Building wealth is not the same as making money. You go to work, you make money, you flip a house, you make money. But again, you buy and hold long enough that equity will come and, not put yourself in a position where you have to sell in order for the deal to work.” – Gabriel Hamel
“I've just kept trying to learn, continually learn, and continually take action.” – Gabriel Hamel
