The LAZY Investor...
Executive Biography
Growing up in Oklahoma, Steve Majors' parents gave him two strong messages regarding his financial future. From his father he heard, "Find a good job!" From his mother the counsel was "Start your own company!
"After earning an Associate of Science degree in Electronics, Mr. Majors began his search for something that would offer the right combination of those seemingly contradictory messages. He experimented with a number of occupations, ranging from fixing stereos to being a radio disk jockey, from working as a long distance company contractor to being a country music singer.
He finally settled down as an engineer for a telephone corporation and moved to Northern California. But he spent little time there. His job took him around the world, visiting 35 countries and living in Russiafor two years, where he met his wife, Irena. It was a financially secure life - until the company announced that it was closing. Having given it almost 12 years of his life, memories of his mother's counsel to start his own business flooded back to him. He began his search for the right business opportunity - something he could call his own.
Mr. Majors' search led him to try a few home-based businesses, including a surplus electronic equipment operation. Thanks to the knowledge and experience he had acquired - management, marketing, computer skills, etc., along with the help of a befriended mentor - he created a successful company. But then came the tragedy of September 11th, 2001, and his business's revenues, like so many others throughout the nation, plummeted.
Early in 2002, Mr. Majors attended a real estate seminar and was immediately drawn to the opportunity, which involved buying and selling houses that could essentially be considered "surplus" houses. Already familiar with the surplus business, he dove in, moving to Las Vegasa few months later to investigate the favorable market conditions. He purchased his first investment property during his first month in Las Vegasand had others quickly under contract.
Completing over 40 deals the first year through a variety of 'no money down' methods, he began developing a system to minimize the work and maximize the returns. Friends and family members encouraged him to begin to teach his methods to others. Working with mentors and building his 'Mastermind Team', he is holding seminars and developing products for everyone to learn these methods.
Known to many as 'The Lazy Investor', his methods of minimal work have developed into a large selection of home study courses, seminars and Boot Camps. In teaching others, he has found a 'good job' that relates to his successful investment business, which brings together a 'company' - not only defined by the business, but also the relationships and success of others.
