Day 03: Top Secret Stuff

Today was all about top-secret stuff.
It (as usual) started with most of the Rockstars getting up – late – and rushing to get to the first session.
Today’s first talk was with one of the wealth mentors, Jeff, who is basically showing us everything we need to know about investing in property and real estate. He talked a bit about his background and story, and also about his thought process about picking investments given an economic climate. We’re actually going be presenting 2 different property analyses about mid-way through Rockstar, and have our strategies picked apart and improved upon by Jeff. For me, this is seriously a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from a mentor who is happy to share, rather than pay $5,000 for a 1-day seminar and be pitched to all day. Jeff also shared some top secret stuff which I may or may not share in the near future…
We all ran out to grab a quick lunch at Subway before taking the Tube back to Rockstar Mansion West for our first physical session with R. He did some benchmark measurements for all of us, and gave us a portable “hotel circuit workout” that we can use while we’re traveling. The workout really took a lot out of us – it’s amazing what you can do with a couple of pieces of furniture and a floor.
Late afternoon was supposed to be our daygame Trial By Fire session with Yen, Keychain and Vercetti, but London finally kicked in its infamous all-day drizzle and the session was cancelled because of that. Instead, Mr M came by to teach us the first opening principles of Social Circle Mastery. He talked about all the main concepts and components, and gave us examples of how they applied in the real world, beyond just game and in other parts of our lives too. Even though I’ve been to the Social Circle Mastery seminar before, it was interesting to hear about some of the newer concepts that he and Braddock have come up with, and how he links these into the idea of Supernova. And yes, we were asked to sign an NDA so it’s all TOP SECRET.
The Rockstars and a number of mentors then bounced to Fika again for dinner. I got to talk a bit more with B (from yesterday’s business talk) about why he chose to pursue expanding the business in the way he did.
Following dinner, half the Rockstar crew moved into Rockstar Mansion East – which is absolutely pimp. They have this awesome 3-story hidden place, which looks like a converted warehouse loft. Vishal and Conor have rooms with GLASS WALLS overlooking the living area… I suspect quite a bit of voyeurism will be occurring in Rockstar Mansion East
We all agreed that the seminars should be held in Rockstar Mansion East – nicer venue, more space, more chairs. Of course, those of us living at Rockstar Mansion West are kinda bummed… but we’re making the most of what we have and we have a secret weapon that no-one knows about (not even the instructors!)
And oh yeah, Vishal and Micha are busy coming up with the points system for our contest. Rockstar Mansion East is already ahead, with Conor bringing a random Norwegian girl home from a coffee shop last night!
Highlights of the Day
- Vishal dropping his iPhone into his chicken-plenk (food).
- Vishal beating Mr M at Asian efficiency (iPhone vs Blackberry – iPhone wins!)
- Rockstar Mansion East – that place is totally pimp and the boys there are going to have some MAD parties (especially with an art gallery RIGHT NEXT DOOR).
