    Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them. Well, at least my advisor does too, jokingly.

    This was a fantastic video. Perhaps the most interesting component to me is the signs of clear stress in the commercial property market. Ben does a great job being positive about it, but it's clear he's really trying to get out of trouble here. I can't help but thing the issues detailed here are a microcosm to the commercial real estate market as a whole right now...

    Listen, NONE of you in the comments or watching this video have 1/10th of what it takes to be this guy and do what he did. That's NOT an insult. My family has worked with Mr. Mallah many times in the past 20 years from a legal perspective and he is the most ruthless and morally bankrupt man on the planet. If you can look a pregnant Mom in the eyes and tell her to kick rocks after the mold in your property got her and her 2yr old sick, while evicting her then laugh about it at a $150/plate lunch, then you might have what it takes. This guy is RUTHLESS and I wouldn't trade ANY of his wealth for that life.
