Ben Lapidus is Live on Elevate!
It was great to welcome Ben Lapidus to the show! As the Director of Acquisitions for Spartan Investment Group LLC, Ben Lapidus brings his skills in asset management and financial analysis to launch and grow Spartan’s portfolio business line. With over two dozen successful deals under his belt prior to Spartan, Ben is also the founder and host of the national Best Ever Real Estate Investing Conference and managing partner of Indigo Ownerships LLC. Before Spartan, Ben started a multi-million dollar study abroad company and worked with several start-ups through IPO or acquisition.
Tyler and Ben’s discussion focused on self-awareness and building the scaffolding to optimize your life. Ben shared his appreciation for self-awareness and acknowledging personal limitations, referencing the implications of Steve Jobs’ reality distortion field and how it contrasts with the egoless real estate investing environment. He also discussed how he’s building scaffolding for his life by letting everyone know where he’s at, creating routines, dedicating an hour for himself and surrounding himself with other self-aware people.
“I’d rather have moderately outsized success and be surrounded with people I enjoy who can help me grow, not just in business but as an individual, than go the egomaniac route.”
Other topics included how his company is building a private equity business model, dealing with attention deficit disorder, problems with millennial mantras,
complementary partnerships, The Best Ever Real Estate Investing Conference and more. Ben is a bright and resourceful entrepreneur with many words of wisdom for Elevate Nation!
