Show Notes

How often do you set a goal and then purposefully take specific actions within the week to ensure you’re setting yourself up to reach that goal? Or how often do you take a goal and ask yourself, “what do I need to do right now to achieve that goal?" Well our guest today is Derrick Reiner and that is exactly what he has done with his entire career and with every goal he’s ever set for himself.

He is a valuation analyst at Altus Group, a global real estate consulting firm, the Managing Principal of his own investment firm, Ryno Capital, and the host of the podcast Capital Stack with Derrick Reiner.
