“I didn't think a guy working in HR could get involved in something like this until I started talking to a network of people and that’s where that education came from.” Chad Ackerman
Today I am interviewing Chad Ackerman who is one of the Founders of Left Field Investors, a community of investors who educate, inspire and help others achieve financial freedom through passive investing. I met Chad at the Best Ever Conference where we were on a panel discussing what it means to be successful at passive investing. Chad with a background in banking and data analytics, was able to pivot those skills into deal analyzing to help evolve his and others real estate investments. Left Field Investors has an incredible team of Founders, community members and resources including their podcast Passive Investing From Left Field.
Chad Ackerman: Was always interested in real estate, but went into banking as a data analyst while passive investing on the side. He received a Bachelor's degree in Business and a minor in Real Estate from the University of Cincinnati.
