Today's conversation is with Barry John Corr, a former professional footballer turned property investor and entrepreneur who has built an eight-figure property portfolio.
Barry John began his football career at Celtic before going on to play for Motherwell in the Scottish Premier League. Dealing with a serious back injury that left him facing the possibility of never walking again went on to change the course of his life.
Today, alongside his wife Leanne, he has built a substantial property portfolio through Investments 38, creating financial freedom and a lifestyle that once seemed out of reach.
In this episode, we explore his journey from professional football to property investment, the mindset required to overcome adversity, raising millions in investor finance, building genuine wealth rather than simply appearing wealthy, and the importance of family, discipline and personal development.
