CEA - Where are You on The Wealth Elevator? with Lane Kawaoka

CEA - Where are You on The Wealth Elevator? with Lane Kawaoka

Who said your PE license is the final act? 🤔 Getting your license and the higher salary that comes with it is a stepping stone for you to achieve something even bigger. In this episode, I chat with Lane Kawaoka about how he used his PE and high-paying engineering job to fuel his real estate investments and make extra cash for his family every month…passively! 😲 He then went on to build a platform to help other licensed engineers (like you) do the same. 😉


Tune in to Learn:

  • The easiest way to trick the system and get your PE license…totally legal!

  • What separates engineers from highly paid engineers — and it’s not technical stuff

  • How he used his high-paying job as a PE job to build passive income with real estate

  • From buying to development: his path in the real estate industry as an engineer

  • Why civil engineers are well-suited for the development side of real estate investing

  • Why traditional investments don’t work for engineers — plus how to find better ones

  • The Wealth Elevator analogy: Which floor are you on?

  • A sneak peek into his soon-to-be-released resource to help engineers scale financially
