In his bid to find a source of income, he looked through the finance section in the yellow pages and found a man called Mike. He met this man based on the fact that he had the biggest ad in that section and asked to work with him for free; in return, Mike would teach and mentor him on the secrets of business and finance. Surprisingly, Mike agreed and this was one of many steps he took to the good life he wanted.

Currently, Tai Lopez has a lot of businesses and investments all over the world; from nightclubs among other ventures to being a motivational speaker and mentor.
