Episode 60 - How To Pitch To Investors with Mikey Taylor
Did you pick a career that doesn’t have much longevity? Worried about what you’re going to do for cash flow once your current career is over?
Our guest, Mikey Taylor, can relate. As a professional skateboarder, you don’t get a lot of years to bring in the cash flow you need for the rest of your life. He started when he was 19, and if you don’t know anything about skateboarding, it isn’t long before a skater starts to feel old in that industry. His skating career lasted till he was 34.
It was that looming and quickly approaching ‘end’ that made him start to explore ways to give himself more longevity and avoid the “Oh my God, what do I do now?” challenge that most athletes have.
His answer? Investing.
Ex-professional skater, now real estate investor and business owner, Mikey knows what it takes to pitch investors, raise capital and build long-term wealth.
Listen in on this conversation between Sam and Mikey to learn how to live below your means, craft the perfect pitch, and get started in the real estate business. Plus, discover the importance of passion projects and how even high-risk investments have the potential to pay off when you go all-in.
“Do not be a flash in the pan. Do not make decisions based on the moment.” - Mikey Taylor
“I used to say I want to create generational wealth. And now, that’s true, but I want to create generational impact, and that… has actually created more wealth for me.” - Sam Primm

Meet the Founder of FasterFreedom
I founded FasterFreedom to teach people just like me to take ownership of their freedom. There is a reason why real estate creates 90% of millionaires in this country.
It's an incredible vehicle for leverage, cash flow, appreciation and the sheer practicality of it… Everyone (and I mean everyone) has the opportunity to benefit from Real Estate.
Real Estate can be overwhelming at times which is part of the reason why we don’t see more people taking advantage of the incredible wealth creating opportunities it provides.
I launched FasterFreedom to do just that… we provide the foundation and grooved path for individuals wanting to achieve freedom and financial independence through Real Estate Investing.
I pride myself in practicing what I preach, meaning all of my lessons and tips are constantly updated and based on the real investing that I do right now- so you only learn what works and not through theory or outdated practices!
