Early Career and Rise to Success
Roger Salam's journey began at UCLA, where he graduated with honors. Shortly after, he joined the team of world-renowned motivational speaker and life coach Tony Robbins, quickly becoming the number one speaker and trainer. His early career in the dot-com boom of the late 1990s saw him as part of a tech startup that skyrocketed to a market cap of $2 billion in less than two years at IPO. Despite this early success, the dot-com bubble burst left him nearly bankrupt, teaching him resilience and the value of specialized knowledge.
Real Estate Career and Adversity
Salam started his real estate investing journey in 1999 with his first rental property. By the mid-2000s, he and his partner had amassed a portfolio of over 500 properties in the Tampa Bay area. However, the 2008 financial crisis led to significant losses. Refusing to declare bankruptcy, he rebuilt his career by mastering no-cash, no-credit strategies such as wholesaling and Subject-To investing. His innovative approach and refusal to quit highlight his belief that adversity is the greatest teacher.

As a pioneer in leveraging technology for real estate, Roger was instrumental in taking an internet startup to a $2 billion market cap in 1999 and later took a blockchain fintech venture public, achieving a peak market cap of $2.5 billion in 2019.
