How Ordinary People Become Extraordinary with James Smith

David Mitchell • April 6, 2022

“Ordinary people can be extraordinary people if they want to. The tools are out there.” James Smith


In my now-long lifetime I’ve heard some of the best preachers preach and I’ve heard some of the best motivational speakers speak. 


My guest today, James Smith, is, without a doubt,
one of the greatest speakers I’ve ever heard. 


For over three decades he’s been
one of America’s foremost experts in real estate investing. He’s spoken to, trained and mentored hundreds of thousands of people around the world to be more literate in finance and wealth building.


In today’s episode, James Smith and I will cover:

  • Why you should stop wasting your time and energy on things that have no eternal value
  • Why inflation is going to be the “werewolf from hell” that ends up hurting most of the people listening to this episode
  • What really holds most people back in their financial lives (and how NOT to let it hold YOU back)


“Without hope, you can’t learn. Without hope, you can’t prosper. Without hope, you can’t move forward. And so hope is one of the most important words in my vocabulary.” James Smith

When people lose too much money to the stock market, it’s almost always because of the same problem. They’re trading without enough training. (Sometimes they haven’t had any training at all whatsoever.) New traders often don’t understand that trading is a new skillset that you have to learn. You can’t just open your computer and magically know how to do it. Guessing, gambling and just going for it isn’t what makes you money in the stock market–it’s what drains your account. In this episode, I’m going to share with you the three most expensive mistakes I see people make in trading over and over again. (Don’t make these mistakes!) ο»Ώ
