Facing Your Finances and Investing Internationally with Queen Blueprint, Ep. 571

Queen Blueprint didn't have the easiest start in life. Growing up in the public assistance system, she was never taught about finances. Her first credit card from Citibank at 18 was maxed out by the summer, setting her on a path of financial struggle that only worsened when she found herself $50K in debt four years later. But she refused to let these obstacles define her. Drawing on her Bachelor's degree in psychology, mental health diagnosis, and financial research, she worked tirelessly to clear her debt within just 2.5 years. This was just the beginning of a remarkable journey that has seen her achieve incredible success in the world of international real estate investment. Not only did she purchase her first U.S. home at just 26 years old she also purchased a property in Kenya to begin her international short-term rental business. Since then Queen has helped countless others achieve their own Major Money Goals™️, from paying down debt to buying their own properties overseas. Her philosophy is that it's not just about the money, but also about mindset. This is what sets her apart from others in the industry. She understands that success in any field, especially real estate investment, requires not just financial knowledge and acumen, but also the right mindset. It's about having the courage to take risks, the resilience to bounce back from setbacks, and the clarity of vision to see opportunities where others only see obstacles. In this episode, we talked to Queen about financial challenges, her transition to a real estate investor, purchasing real estate in Kenya and investing in Africa, tips and ideas on 2024, and much more.   Announcement: You can join the Apartment Investing Mastermind here.   Erasing Debt and Investing Internationally; 01:31 Queen’s background; 05:45 An insight on financial challenges; 10:40 Queen's transition to her investment journey; 15:22 Purchasing real estate in Kenya; 22:11 What the future holds for Queen; 25:37 Lessons learned from investing in Africa; 27:39 Tips and ideas for what 2024 holds; 24:25 Round of Insights   Announcement: Download Our Sample Deal and Join Our Mailing List   Round of Insights   Apparent Failure: Losing her job.
