From chance gas station encounters to building an empire brick by brick, Dedric & Krystal Polite share how they rose from generational poverty to create generational wealth — and lift others as they rise. In this candid conversation, they reveal how getting fired and evicted sparked their Airbnb hustle, how a betrayal at 19 fueled their mindset that failure isn’t final, and why mentorship is the ultimate cheat code. This is a real-world blueprint for building something that outlives you — for anyone ready to believe it’s gotta work or it’s gotta work.Chapters:00:00:00 - Step Into the Mindset of Eternal Optimism00:00:59 - The Unexpected Power Couple: Meet Krystal & Dedric Polite00:03:38 - From Struggle to Strength: Their Personal Turning Points00:09:18 - Betrayal at 19: Krystal’s Defining Moment in College00:17:09 - Fired Up: How Losing Jobs Sparked Their Entrepreneurial Fire00:21:43 - The Real Estate Hustle Begins—With Nothing But Grit00:22:58 - The Questions That Changed Everything00:23:36 - A Leap of Faith to North Carolina00:23:57 - Flipping the Script: Enter Real Estate00:24:24 - The Mentor Who Collapsed Their Learning Curve00:25:07 - Hustle Mode: Wholesaling Without a Roadmap00:26:03 - $16K Risk, Massive Reward: The Mastermind Move00:28:50 - Scaling Up: The Real Estate Breakthrough Moment00:32:13 - What Every Entrepreneur Needs to Hear00:35:11 - Want In?
