Onaje Barnes:
Onaje Barnes grew up in poverty in 3rd Ward Houston, Tx as the 3rd child of four to a single mother. He was able to graduate Salutatorian of my High School Class and go on to graduate from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Economics. After graduation, he was able to obtain a job at a fortune 500 company but after only 3 years, that company merged with a larger company and laid off 25K people. At that moment he learned that NO company would get him wealthy or even provide long-term stable income. Although he had a "prestigious economics degree" , it had not taught him anything about how to build wealth without a job. So he had to go back to school, the school of personal Economics and Real Estate. After 1.5 years of reading books , podcasts, & google; he was able to buy his first "Ugly Home " in a great neighborhood for his family. He quickly learned the value of Real Estate through the school of Hard Knocks. The School of Hard Knocks taught him more about wealth than the previous 16 years of formal education. 13 years later, He has been able to acquire over 50 units including commercial multifamily properties and a boutique hotel to provide generational wealth for his family.
