Luis ”Red” Anaya - Avoiding the gangs in LA and how getting into real estate saved his life

Red had grown up in the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles. He was surrounded by gangs, drugs, and violence every day. For Red, these were all too familiar sights - it seemed like no matter how much he tried to stay away from them, they still found a way into his life. Today things have changed drastically for Red since those days on the street corner with his old gang buddies - now instead of being involved in illegal activities; he is running a successful real estate office in Southern California and owns several restaurants. When asked about how far he has come since meeting my mentor, he says "I owe everything I am today to that man - if it wasn't for him believing in me when I didn't believe in myself; I wouldn't be where I am today."
