How Grant Cardone invests
Here is Grant Cardone’s favorite investing tip: “Track your cash flow. Track your monthly cash flow so you have the insight into what you have, what you need, and how much it costs you to do what you do. I go back to this every single day and it has been so freeing for me and I have no excuse not to pay my bills every month and I have money left over. I track every penny I spend and I make sure I have the money to do what I need to do. I have built my life in a way that I don’t have to rely on anybody, but me to do what I need to do.” Notably, this is exactly how Grant Cardone manages his own business. He has to make money and he can’t afford to use resources he can’t afford.
How Grant Cardone motivates himself
Let me start with a story. Grant and I were working on this phone interview when I got the news that former President Barack Obama was about to appear on “Ellen.” I am not a fan of the show but in a stroke of fate I happened to have an interview with Mr. Obama and mentioned it to my client. The next thing I knew he had booked Obama on the show and is now being featured in the segment. I am not saying this happened exactly like that but the outcome was the same. It inspired me to get the Obama interview done quickly and to then send an email to Grant. That was the beginning of a series of happenings that led to the rest of the pieces in this interview.
