Welcome to our new Realty411 edition.
I know many of our readers are working virtually now, and I hope you have enjoyed time bunkering down at home with your family.
While it’s devastating that nearly 600,000 Americans have lost their lives to the novel coronavirus, the imposed lockdown has brought many families much closer together.
In the past twelve months I’ve spent more time with my family than in previous years. And, it’s been wonderful.
Prior to the pandemic, life was faster, schedules were busier, and often in conflict with our family time. The extra special moments shared with my aging mother and daughter, who will soon leave for college, plus my busy husband, have been precious.
This increased connection has made a huge impact on my life, our family, and hopefully our future.
For this reason, creating a family legacy is the focus of our cover feature for this special issue. It is often said in motivational seminars that we do more for the people we love than we do for ourselves. Family is the why behind the success of many people.
Many real estate investors have confided to me during our live events that their main motivation for building a property portfolio is to leave their family with the stability of having passive income.
For this reason, it’s an honor to have Gene Guarino on our Realty411 magazine cover. Gene is one of the most sought-after educators in the REI industry and truly one of the most dedicated family men I know.
Gene has attended numerous live Realty411 events over the years in California, Arizona, Texas, and New York. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting his lovely wife, Mona, as well as their son, Emmanuel (Manny). I’ve also worked with their daughter, Isabelle, on a few digital marketing campaigns.
The Guarinos are truly one of the closest family units I’ve ever met. They are true role models for our industry, not only professionally, but in the amazing way they connect personally with one another.
The love, devotion and respect they have for each other spreads to all those around them.
For the past ten years, I’ve also seen Gene Gaurino skyrocket his professional career! Starting from speaking at small venues in his home state of Arizona to educating hundreds of investors at numerous professional events across the country. Plus, his RAL Academy has grown into numerous other organizations, including an industry RAL association, a speaking academy, and more.
The most wonderful thing of all is that it seems Gene’s company expands as his family grows. For example, now that Gene and Mona’s son, Manny is married, his new bride, Beckah, is also involved in the family business. In addition to speaking at virtual and live events, Manny, along with Beckah, also manage their own RAL home.
It’s been a pleasure to witness Gene’s organization (and family) grow through the years.
Gene is certainly setting up a long-lasting legacy for his family. In fact, his legacy will last for generations to come!
Imagine creating a company that generates multiple streams of income on a monthly basis for your loved ones?
How powerful would that be for your children, your grand children, and even great-grandchildren?!
You can create than turning point for future generations – right here, right now. And, Realty411 wants to help you do just that.
In this issue, you will be able to read Gene Guarino’s wealth-building playbook. Learn from his years of business and numerous ventures. Find out what worked, and what did not. We hope Gene’s cover feature, and this entire issue, sets you on the right track to create a lasting-legacy plan for your family.
Remember, it all starts with a plan and purpose. The journalist and best-selling author Napoleon Hill wrote in “Think and Grow Rich” that all success begins with a burning desire. But, it doesn’t just stop there. Each one of us has to then Take Action.
Join us as we all take action to improve our lives and those of our loved ones.
The moment that will define your family’s life 100 years from now starts TODAY… Get started on a plan for generational success. Join us as we consciously create a secure future for our loved ones.
A legacy that will withstand the test of time.
To your success,
Linda Pliagas
