Description:
Larry Connor made a fortune in luxury apartments by obsessing over the smallest transaction. His strategy has paid off for years, but now that the market has shifted, how close to the edge is he willing to go? <br/><br/>“You’ve got to be willing to take calculate risk, not stupid risk,” Connor says. That has been a winning strategy for him and his real estate firm, the Connor Group, which has led to three decades of astronomical returns and a $2 billion personal fortune.<br/><br/>Since he cofounded the business in 1991, its investments in luxury apartments have generated an annual rate of return of 30.4%. That’s almost unheard of in an industry in which titans such as Blackstone and Brookfield have posted returns of 16% and 18% in real estate, respectively, since inception. <br/><br/>0:00 Intro<br/>0:52 Who is Larry Connor?<br/>1:15 Entrepreneurial Journey<br/>4:11 Formation of The Connor, Murphy and Berman Group<br/>5:25 Methodology for Success <br/>6:52 Thrill-seeking Adventures <br/>8:11 Philanthropic Pursuits<br/>11:01 The Greater Dayton School<br/>13:44 Larry the Leader<br/><br/>Read the full story on Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/giacomotognini/2024/04/17/meet-the-skydiving-billionaire-with-sky-high-returns/?sh=48136b3f8dfa<br/><br/>Subscribe to FORBES: https://www.youtube.com/user/Forbes?sub_confirmation=1<br/><br/>Fuel your success with Forbes.

_custom-vw-tackles-brutal-desert-race.webp "A group of friends have brought their skills together to transform an old-school Volkswagen Beetle, named Tope, in order to take part in one of the world’s most ruthless races. The Baja 1000 is a Mexican desert race which takes place annually in the Baja California Peninsula. It’s the longest point to point off-road race in the world, that's run in a single day. Josh McGuckin, one of Tope's mechanics, explained how much of a challenge preparing for the race was for the team. He told FutureStudiosCars “Driving this car in the Baja 1000 can be summed up for me in one word, exhausting.” To an outsider the car would appear as just a “really old bugg” but once inside, “suddenly it just comes to life”. Starting with the VW Beetle was a huge undertaking for the team, as they had to modify the classic 1970 car to be suitable for the incredibly harsh conditions. However, the extreme nature of this race did take its toll on the well-loved vehicle, “every time you come back from a race, you’re constantly rebuilding and replacing everything”, Josh explained. The bugg may not be the fastest car, but it’s capable of doing the job for this team. And the teamwork paid off as Tope triumphantly reached the finish line. Josh spoke about his relief and elation, “every time we race this car, we learn something new.\")
