Why it is Important to get your Mindset right before you Start off on your Investment Journey
In this week's episode, we talk to Dr Herchel Clarke, a doctor, about his property journey.
Herchel started his property journey in 2017 in Windhoek, Namibia, where he bought his first property thinking it was a good investment.
He shares how he started his investment journey thinking he could only afford 3 properties in his lifetime and how after buying his first property, he realized something was wrong because he suddenly had more month than money and found himself worse off than when he was a student living off of R1500 (US$90) a month.
Just after buying his property in Namibia, he was offered a post in Cape Town, South Africa, and met a couple that introduced him to Dave Ramsey's book - "The Total Money Makeover" which helped him understand his relationship with money.
One day he stumbled on Robert Kiyosaki's "Why A students work for C students", which lead to a total paradigm shift for him and started him on an inner journey.
He soon understood that in order to change his external circumstances, he needed to change within.
