'Dear Monopoly Man, Time's Up A**hole' cc: hackernoon mogul_ooo TechCrunch tokenization realestate
For nearly a century, the board game famous for causing fights on family vacations became the first introduction to the world of real estate for many. The Monopoly Man, adorned in a top hat, bow tie, and three-piece suit, became a symbol of the real estate mogul. In part, the imagery was fun, whimsical, and innocent; however, the character paints a picture of unattainable wealth achievable through real estate.
In the process of buying my first property, I faced countless archaic processes, nearly quit 10 times, and looked for any affordable alternative path to directly invest in real estate. I was met with no solutions. After working with tech companies, crypto banks, and financial institutions in Goldman Sachs’ Investment Banking group, I took a month off and walked throughout all of New York with a little black notebook. Every time I had a coherent stream of thought, I stopped in a coffee shop. I would sweat all over the notebook and feverishly write a blockchain concept to solve the inefficiencies in traditional real estate.
After the aforementioned month, I moved to Dallas to work for the Real Estate Investing Group in GS. Thrilled by the distance between us , my incredibly patient girlfriend still heard my plethora of complaints from 1,300 miles away. One night after the millionth complaint, , she snapped. In a s*** or get off the pot moment, I would either have to find a co-founder or shut up.After meeting my co-founder at a group happy hour, I knew I had to have him on my team.
