Plan First Wealth

It's always a pleasure to be joined by a fellow Boltonian. Today's guest is Matt Dixon, a British expat who has carved out an impressive career in the American real estate industry. Matt details his journey and embrace of the American Dream, as we touch on the perception of Americans and their welcoming nature, business betrayal and the occasionally unpleasant underbelly of expat life.  

From his humble beginnings in Bolton, England, to making an indelible mark on the real estate industry of Orlando, Florida, Matt shares fascinating anecdotes and insightful experiences that shed light on the journey of an expatriate. 

Shaped by his initial skepticism (could Americans actually welcome a Brit into their inner circle?), his shift to advocating for the people of America, and the enumerable challenges he faced along his way, Matt's story paints an inspiring picture of career progress, personal transformation, and resilience. He talks about his initial struggle to assimilate into American culture and the gradual acceptance and integration he experienced. 

Episode 2 is a rollercoaster ride of an expat's life, offering an enlightening perspective and valuable advice for anyone contemplating a similar journey.
