5 years ago I almost invested $15,000 in Miami real estate...

Instead, I placed a Micromarket in an apartment building.

It made $17,000 in the first 30 days.

Here’s the step-by-step blueprint I used to do it: 1. Why I Passed on Real Estate

In 2018, I wanted to buy a rental property in Miami.

I had $15,000 ready for a down payment, but the numbers didn’t add up:

• Low rental yields.
• High property prices.
• Maintenance headaches.

It felt like a grind with little return.

The 5 WORST places to put your vending machines:

The traffic just isn't there.

I learned this the hard way.

A location with only a handful of customers per day won't generate enough sales to even cover your gas to restock it.

Think vending machine meets convenience store.

• Cost of Goods: $360
• Software & transaction fees: $120

There are 2 fundamentally different types of happiness:

1. Hedonic (pleasure)
2. Eudaimonic (meaning)

Most people chase the wrong one…

& it costs them everything.

Understanding the difference will transform your approach to life: 🧵 You can see this paradox everywhere:

• The millionaire who's deeply depressed
• The celebrity who struggles with addiction
• The social media star who feels completely empty

Why is this?

They’ve chased hedonic happiness while neglecting eudaimonic fulfillment.

Let me explain…

Naval just spent 3 hours with Chris Williamson.

They discussed exactly how to find true wealth, freedom & happiness.

That first machine started generating profit from day one.
