Andrew Collin's Coke Overdose and the Orange Grove Land Flip

• 46:11Andrew had a mild coke overdose in New Orleans after doing blow all night with a stripper, then gravity bong hits sent him to the heart ward for three days.
• 46:58Real estate ran through his family—grandma Shirley and his uncle both did it, so Andrew got his license at 23 during the boom without knowing what he was doing.
• 48:04Andrew and his buddy Rusty found an orange grove with five parcels, sixty acres, and underlying zoning for three units per acre.
• 48:46The dying cancer patient had a pro forma showing six million dollars in profit, so Andrew called his uncle to tell him it was a sure thing.
• 49:18They sold it to the uncle for 7.8 million, then got it under contract with Angle Homes for 16 million before even closing.
• 50:05Andrew made $300,000 overnight and went crazy—trips to Costa Rica doing blow, Vegas, Colorado, buying a truck with spinners and trading it for a Mercedes with seven grand in a brown bag to Jack the dealer.
• 50:51Andrew bought a condo for $220,000 that dropped to $60,000 in six months when the market crashed and he had nothing.
• 51:17Ziggy Wilf, owner of the Vikings, came down to meet Andrew and Rusty about the land deal—showing how crazy the mortgage industry had gotten.
• 51:35The land Andrew sold to his uncle for 7.8 million is now worth about 1.5 million, but his uncle doesn't seem to hold it against him.
• 52:36Rusty works in wealth management and stock stuff for his father now.
