Flamboyant Author's Advice
Frank McKinney was only 18 years of age when he arrived in Miami in January 1982 to get away from his reputation for rebellion, drunkenness and academic underachievement that troubled his well-to-do family in Indiana. With only $50 McKinley he used it to start buying low-income houses refurbishing them and then selling them back to make a profit. From there he just got bigger by buying high end beach front properties and rebuilding them into mansions that are worth $28 million. McKinney has said to be so successful because of the effort that he put into excess and individuality. But others say that its because of his down to earth house sense. McKinney first decided to purse his career in real estate at age 21, he took courses passed the real estate examination and applied for a job at a real estate brokerage firm. to prepare for the interview he bought a business suit and tight laced black shoes, the interview went well and he was offered the job the only thing he was asked was to get a hair cut. He wrote a book on his success and people were surprised with emphasis that he put on the personal vision that he had in mind when he wrote it. Most people that are that successful or that famous all that happens usually goes to their head,but with McKinney he was very down to earth by giving back to the less fortunate.
