Where did the Lifeonaire Concept Come From?
Meet Steve Cook:
Steve Cook is an author, coach, real estate investor, speaker, father, and husband. Steve began investing in real estate in 1998 in Maryland. After much success he wrote two Real Estate courses: Rehabbing for Big Cash and Wholesaling for Quick Cash, and he started a real estate investor’s website with an active forum. As his success in real estate grew, so did the demand for coaching and speaking. It was in the early years of coaching that Steve realized that in order for his students to be successful in business, they must also be successful in life. Struggling with the pressures of his own business debt, Steve began seeking financial wisdom from the Bible. In the process, God gave him the word “Lifeonaire”.
For the past 12 years, Steve has applied the financial principles he has found in Scripture to his own life and has been sharing them with others. In 2009 he became debt free (including business debt) and encourages others to find that same freedom through the application of biblical principles to their businesses and personal lives. Along the way he partnered with Shaun McCloskey from St Louis and their latest book, Lifeonaire, brings to life the journey of applying God’s word and discovering what it means to personally live an abundant life.
Tony Youngs
Tony Youngs began his Real Estate entrepreneur career in 1986 after attending a seminar. He became rapidly successful in acquiring foreclosure properties and found his niche to be working with distressed properties. Tony started with no money and bad credit and still managed to purchase several properties using OMP & OPC. In fact, after repairs, his first deal netted him a sum of money equal to a full salary at Lockheed, an occupation Tony eventually gave up forever. To enhance his appetite for learning, Tony completed courses in real estate law, title searches, and bankruptcy law.
Now, for over 20 years, Tony has been perfecting and creating his own unique system, strategies, and techniques for acquiring foreclosure and hidden market properties. Because of his extreme knowledge and experience, Tony has been asked to speak at real estate and entrepreneur conventions, as well as real estate broker meetings, and national investor associations to audiences that range from 40 to 46,000.
He has been a featured guest on numerous television shows, such as "Financial Freedom in America". "American Home Buyers Alliance", "Atlanta Live", and "Go for your Dreams". He is a frequent guest on radio talk shows, and has been written about in magazines and news journals. Tony has also authored material for "Best Seller" real estate books published and sold in bookstores worldwide.
He is the creator of The Amazing 7 Ways to Profit from One Foreclosure and The Hidden Market System (a system to find properties before they go into foreclosure). His years of hands-on experience shine through in great detail. Tony keeps abreast of the constantly changing latest laws and adapts to the state guidelines. Several states have new laws and special contracts that are needed.
To this day, Tony still makes approximately 100 offers per month around the nation applying the "7 ways to create profit" and tracks them to the auction and then the REO stage and is on the cutting edge of the latest techniques and strategies for buying at each stage of the process. After a near death experience in 1993, he became truly passionate about helping people to a better quality of life.
