169: From Homeless to Self-Made Multi-Millionaire with Yassin Hall
- 169: From Homeless to Self-Made Multi-Millionaire with Yassin Hall Rachel Brooks 42:45
In 2009, after a divorce that left her with a drained bank account and no child support, Yassin Hall drove to a Walmart parking lot with the only gas she had left and posted up there with her four children – two who had autism and two who had Mental Health illnesses. With nothing but a prayer, she started selling on Amazon 17 years ago when the company was just starting out. Now, she’s a self-made millionaire, and she’s helped thousands of other students in her program (including her autistic daughter, who was told she’d never learn anything!) become financially free.
Curious how people are making millions selling items on Amazon? We talk about:
- Yassin’s incredible rags to riches story (seriously, this is the most inspiring story you’ll ever hear)
- How she helped her daughter, who was non-verbal autistic, make enough Money on Amazon to purchase her own 5 bedroom house at age 17
- How helping her daughter inspired her to help others by creating a course
- The most common fears people have getting into the Amazon selling a business and how Yassin addresses them
- Breaking down the different ways you can easily get started with Amazon selling
- Pitfalls and lessons Yassin had to learn the hard way that she now shares with her students so they can avoid it
- How hard is it to get started when you see other people’s stores have 30k positive reviews

- “I teach them everything I learned in 17 years, in one year.” – Yassin
- “My oldest son is living with bipolar. My second son was going through Depression because of the divorce. I have an autistic son and an autistic daughter. My son got shot in the back five times. I had to learn the hard way how to keep on breathing.” -Yassin
