In this episode of From Roots to Froots, we sit down with property investor Ernest Lukovnikovas, whose journey from low-paying jobs and long hours to financial freedom through real estate is nothing short of inspiring. 💼🏡
Ernest shares how he went from listening to Rich Dad Poor Dad during food delivery shifts to becoming an award-winning estate agent and a successful property investor.
