In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with real estate investors Dedric and Krystal Polite to talk about what it really takes to build generational wealth—and why most people never get started.

Like many aspiring investors, they had the books, the education, and the desire—but it wasn't until they took action that everything changed . Today, they've built a thriving real estate business, starred in their own TV show, and are focused on helping others create long-term wealth through investing.

In this conversation, they break down the difference between earning income and building lasting wealth, why they use wholesaling and flipping to generate cash—but rely on buy-and-hold rentals to create true financial freedom—and how they're intentionally building a legacy for their family.

They also share what it's like to build a business as a couple, how they divide roles to make it work, and why teaching their kids about money and ownership is a core part of their mission.

This episode is a powerful reminder that no one is coming to build your wealth for you. But with the right mindset, the right strategy, and a willingness to take action, it's possible to create financial freedom that lasts for generations.

Nana shares how she achieved financial freedom, why she invested in markets like Pittsburgh, and what she learned from investing out of state during a hot market. She also discusses leaving her W-2 job and building a life with more flexibility and purpose.
