About this episode
I engage in a conversation with Gino Barbaro, renowned as "the pizza guy". Gino recounts his path from managing an Italian restaurant to recognizing his desire for enhanced financial stability and freedom. After experiencing the struggles of the restaurant industry during the Great Recession, Gino teamed up with Jake to start investing in multifamily real estate. They now own over 2,000 apartment units and $250,000,000 in assets under management. Gino also teaches others how to acquire real estate. Gino's motivation for the transition came from wanting a better future for himself and his family and seeing the benefits of owning rental properties.Tune in to hear Gino's insights on the mental shift required to move from the kitchen to the world of investing.Listen to this brand new episode of The Private Chef Podcast on:Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/gino-barbaros-successful-shift-from-restaurateur-to/id1648363134?i=1000639051898Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/episode/6GBkoPmy7HTSvqAz8G2xp9Youtube - https://youtu.be/aYqmFkII-PASeeking a mentor to navigate the private service industry?Email me at hannes@privatechef.ccJoin our growing community of chefs and get your FREE e-book HERE https://www.privatechef.cc/joinusLet's stay connected to get the latest updates, tips, learning resources, and job opportunities:LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannes-hennche/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hanneshennche/Twitter https://twitter.com/JHenncheFacebook https://www.facebook.com/privatechefccYoutube https://www.youtube.com/@hanneshenncheConnect with Gino Barbaro LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gino-barbaro-03973b4b/Website - https://jakeandgino.com/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/jakeandgino/Time Stamps[00:01:06] Shift from chef to investor[00:01:25] Living the restaurant dream[00:05:15] Autonomy and financial freedom[00:09:08] The power of compounding
