40 Rentals in 3 Years with ONE Highly Repeatable Strategy

Lawrence Guerguis, known on the show as Landlord Larry, expected to spend forty years in finance. According to the episode, one conversation with a regretful investment banker changed that. He sold his car while still in college, put the money toward a duplex in the Midwest, moved to Cleveland and, three years on, says he owns 40 rentals. Episode #1336 tells that story, with Section 8 tenants and private lenders along the way, and it is the week's most watched upload by a wide margin, past 60,000 views.

The comments under it are mostly about Larry himself: his storytelling, his "finance bro" energy, and a few practical questions, such as whether all his properties are Section 8 and how he decided Cleveland was the right market. One viewer who lives an hour from Peoria vouches for the area. Another is sure the family car from 2008 was a Corolla.

Two days later came a very different guest. Apolo Ohno, the short-track speed skater who won eight Olympic medals across three Winter Games, talks about what he calls the "great divorce" from his athletic identity and how the patience of training carried over into real estate. Then Dave Meyer took the Friday slot alone with seven tax strategies, from depreciation to 1031 exchanges and opportunity zones, and that one is gathering views faster than anything else on the channel in its first hours.

A short counting down to BPCON2026 rounded out five uploads. Overall the channel ran right at its usual pace. Among the money and investing channels near its size, I Will Teach You To Be Rich and Ben Mallah are having big weeks, while Sean Pan sits steady.
