  • E087 - Inside the Luxury Lifestyle of Billionaires (Biggest Lessons) | Enes Yilmazer
    ​Enes Yilmazer, a former world-champion windsurfer turned luxury real estate filmmaker, joins this episode to unpack the reality behind touring and filming the world’s most iconic homes—including Michael Jordan’s. It’s easy to assume this kind of content is all access and glamor, but Enes pulls back the curtain on the months-long negotiations, intense pressure, and emotional weight of doing justice to someone else’s legacy. He opens up about the real demands of his work, from 1,000-hour edits to filming with owners and billionaires just out of frame. If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes, this episode delivers.00:00 Meeting Enes and his story01:25 From windsurfing champion to real estate tours02:04 Behind the scenes of luxury content creation07:08 Getting inside the world's most exclusive homes15:40 Filming in the presence of nervous homeowners (Michael Jordan)20:56 Choosing integrity over commission checks24:46 When luxury becomes your normal32:17 Celebration moments in mansion tours37:11 Expanding the content empire40:13 When security concerns force content removal44:33 Where the wealthy are moving52:13 Why Dubai attracts luxury buyers59:56 Future islands and advice for agents1:05:00 Social media's power in real estate1:07:08 The art of luxury craftsmanship1:15:06 Setting sail into yacht content1:19:17 Do possessions bring happiness?1:26:15 What makes a home truly luxurious1:32:34 Launching a healthy home goods brand1:37:56 Dreams of designing furniture1:40:00 Connecting with the audience» Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - https://www.digitalplaybook.net/» Transform your physique - https://www.thrstapp.com/» My clothing brand, THRST - https://thrstofficial.com» Custom Bioniq supplements: https://www.bioniq.com/mikethurston • 40% off your first month of Bioniq GO • 20% off your first month of Bioniq PRO» Join ​⁠@Whoop and get your first month for free - https://join.whoop.com/mikethurston» Follow Enes«Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/enesyilmazer/?hl=enPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/enesyilmazer
