Mastering Real Estate Capital Raising with Adam Gower | Know your why #249
EPISODE SUMMARY:
We're going on a rich educational journey with Dr. Adam Gower, a seasoned professional in the realms of real estate and finance. With more than 30 years of experience under his belt, Dr. Gower charts his unconventional route into the industry, from knocking on doors in Southern California to becoming a successful real estate mogul. He also shares some intriguing insights into the evolution of real estate capital raising, painting a vivid picture of how the process has changed from the pre-internet days to the present digital era.
The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we examine the impacts of regulatory changes brought by the Jobs Act of 2012 and the Securities Act of 1933 on digital marketing in commercial real estate. These regulations, which were originally designed to stimulate market liquidity and provide access to cash for startups, had unexpected outcomes. Dr. Gower weighs in on these changes and their ripple effects on the industry, illuminating how his experiences raising capital in the 80s and 90s have been affected by this evolving landscape.
In the final stretch of our chat, we delve into the philosophical side of life and discuss the elusive pursuit of happiness. With reference to studies conducted by Lord Richard Layer, we explore the idea that our happiness level is often influenced by how we compare ourselves to others. This comparison can lead to a relentless cycle of desire for more. Our discussion extends to the importance of finding contentment in what we have and the impact of social media on our emotions. We also touch on understanding investment risk, the best strategies for investing during a downturn, and the importance of patience and diversification in investments.
So, tune in and embark on this enlightening journey with us and Dr. Gower. You'll surely come away with a wealth of knowledge and insights that will enrich both your real estate pursuits and overall life experience.
