As a teenager, people who knew Russ Whitney viewed him as nothing more than
another high school dropout, street-wise, but headed nowhere. By the age of 20,
Russ found himself trying to support his wife and child while employed by the
Tobin Meat Packing slaughterhouse in Albany, New York for $5 an hour.
Consumed by the desire to give his family a better life, Russ began researching
techniques intended to build wealth.
"I started answering ads for money-making opportunities. Some of them were pure
junk, some required capital I didn't have and some just didn't suit me. But
then I ordered a book that had a couple of ideas that made sense. I finally
found something that I could do that didn't require a lot of money to start,
and in 3 weeks, I made $11,000."

The Psychology of Poverty
Russ realized that wasting this money went against the principles of his new
wealth-building strategy. So, he and his family celebrated his initial
financial success with a commitment to use that money to make more money. He
quickly invested it in another money-making vehicle.
A little over a year later, at the age of 22, he had racked up $117,000 in
profits.
"Initially, I was afraid to quit my job, because the fact that I had actually
achieved financial independence seemed too good to be real. I had been poor all
my life, and everyone I knew was poor, so at first it was hard to believe I'd
broken out of the mold."
Whitney's first wealth-building venture had involved real estate. Although he
purchased rundown residential properties and repaired them, he went beyond the
typical "buy low and sell high" strategy to purchase properties that were only
cosmetically distressed, and would generate a positive cash flow while he
increased their value, as well as his own net worth by employing a variety of
creative techniques. This experience led him into related businesses such as
property maintenance and management, and real estate consulting.
At the age of 25, Russ Whitney decided to move his family to Cape Coral,
Florida. In 18 months, with only a thousand borrowed dollars, Whitney
streamlined his techniques and amassed a fortune of $4.7 million in real
estate.
Upon reaching his goal to be a millionaire, Whitney published Overcoming the
Hurdles & Pitfalls of Real Estate Investing, detailing how he made
his fortune." There were plenty of books on how to make money, but none of them
were really complete," he says. "They either assumed you knew things most
people don't, the ideas required a lot of cash, or they left out important
details. I decided to tell people exactly what I did (right or wrong) and how
they could do the same thing, but avoid the mistakes I made."
Later, Whitney wrote Building Wealth, which, when it was re-released
as a soft-cover book achieved #2 on Amazon.com's best-seller list in 1999. His
next book, Millionaire Real Estate Mentor (Dearborn Publishing,
2003) reached #2 on Amazon.com and made the bestseller lists in both Business
Week and The Wall Street Journal. His
most recent book, Millionaire Real Estate Mindset was the powerful follow-up. In this book, you'll learn how to capitalize on your most valuable asset...Your Mind!

Building Wealth by
Sharing Wealth
So, why would this multi-millionaire want to spend his time educating others on
wealth-building strategies?
"It's the classic concept of casting your bread upon the waters: What you put
out will come back to you many times over. You can't put a price tag on the
personal satisfaction that comes from watching someone who has been struggling
from week to week, take one or two of my ideas and achieve financial security,
and then go on to build their own personal fortune."
Realizing the tremendous need for quality training material on the various
aspects of wealth building, Russ developed a complete educational system to
help people learn his methods - and put them into practice. With a significant
percentage of Whitney's students being lawyers, doctors, business owners and
other professionals who had grown weary of working 70 to 80 hours a week to
maintain a standard of living, Whitney learned the value of his wealth-building
strategies.
"Most of the people I talked to had college degrees, but they didn't know the
fundamentals of wealth building. Colleges and universities teach you math and
science, but they don't teach you how to make money, nor do they teach you how
to protect your money. Most importantly, they don't teach you how to keep it
and make it grow."
To reach a broader number of people, Russ Whitney developed a series of
workshops, conferences, and other educational programs designed to provide the
information and tools necessary for anyone to achieve financial independence
and security.
Russ Whitney's curriculum consolidates what he has learned by trial and error
over the past 25 years. However, these courses are not for everyone.
"It takes a certain person; just wanting to become rich isn't enough. You have
to be ready to understand why you haven't gotten rich yet and be willing to do
something about it. The trainings have helped me build a network of friends,
financiers, and other business contacts all over the world. I have business
partners from coast to coast, in virtually every state and in several foreign
countries. My students become part of my network and get the benefits of the
relationships I have worked to develop over the years. I'm always learning
something new, and then passing that information on to my students so we all
benefit."
The element that makes Whitney stand out among most educators is that he
practices what he preaches. "I have successfully done everything I teach - not
just once, but over and over again," he says. "That's why I know my techniques
are effective and just about anyone can use them to make money. In fact, I make
significantly more from actually doing what I teach other people to do."
