SCAMMED Out Of $48M (What Your Bank Isn't Telling You)

<p dir="ltr">LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/</p> <p dir="ltr">Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/</p> <p dir="ltr"><br /> In this no-BS episode of Dropping Bombs, I sit down with Bronx-born builder and battle-tested entrepreneur Brian Abbey, a man whose life story reads like a blueprint for grit, failure, and redemption. From emancipating himself at 15 and becoming a father at 18, to scaling a general contracting company to $48M before losing it all in one signature — Brian brings the raw truth behind success, loss, and ultimate ownership.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Brad and Brian dig into what really went wrong, the hard lesson in fractional lending, and why personal accountability is the key to rebuilding stronger. They also unpack Brian's book "<a href="https://a.co/d/9AVG3ef">You Are the Choices You Make</a>", his take on modern construction management, and why most general contractors are doing it all wrong. If you're an entrepreneur, builder, or someone who's been knocked down and needs a playbook for getting back up — this one's for you.<br /> <br /></p> <p dir="ltr">🔗 Resources</p> <p dir="ltr">Brian Abbey's Book: <a href="https://a.co/d/9AVG3ef">You Are the Choices You Make</a> (<a href="https://a.co/d/9AVG3ef">https://a.co/d/9AVG3ef</a>)</p> <p dir="ltr">Brian's Instagram: @absolutetruth_24</p> <p><strong><br /> <br /></strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDAbrXOj2yIrzj8QE4jC-Og">here on YouTube</a>.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Brad Lea is a self-made entrepreneur who turned small-town grit into a multi-million-dollar empire.
