A Bold Move

by Dr Marina Nani

Real Estate Investor and Expert, Business Strategist, Owner of IMN Stuttgart

Florence Bountsman, originally from France, lives now in Stuttgart, Germany, with her husband and her 3 sons. As a child she played chess at a high level and participated to European and World Chess championship. During one of the European tournaments, she met a new chess mate who was a chess grand master and proved to be her true soul mate, Dmitri. Together they moved to Germany, which became her country for the last 18 years. Moving to a foreign country where you don’t speak the language is a bold move. Making a bold move at a young age proved to be the best move, as she discovered aspects of her own identity as well as the nature of her relationship with her own family, a place to call it home.

At first, Florence work as a web developer in Stuttgart and that was the first step into understanding a new culture. When the family started to grow, Florence and her husband made a bold move again and decided to invest in real estate. This bold move created a job that gave her the freedom to spent time with her children and upscale the business at the same time.

Now an experienced investor and a renowned business strategist, together with her husband, they launched IMN Stuttgart (Intelligent Millionaires Network) and created the team to support the expansion of their business.

Together they have built six successful companies and own 19 real estate units in an exclusive part of Germany. They are also always in the lookout for opportunities to invest and Cryptocurrency, which have proved to be an equally lucrative financial achievement.

“I met JT Foxx in Autumn 2016, really somebody incredible who speaks the truth, not what you want to hear but what you need to hear to improve. JT Foxx is really someone remarkable! He makes events in the whole world, expanding in new countries, where he brings so much value to business communities. He gives so much for his “family first” group, to all his students. It was really inspiring to see and understand that we all have the possibility to help others in our specific area of expertise. Guided by my coaches, JT Foxx, Silvija Popovic and Julia Bock, I really realized that my knowledge could help other people become successful. Having mentors, you gain confidence and having confidence gives you the competence and the courage to adventure into new business possibilities.”

But real estate and Cryptocurrency are not their main focus. Florence loves to help others become financially free. Creating a community of like- minded people, people who, just like her, know there is more to life than struggles.

“If you are stuck somewhere when you want to improve your life, you need more knowledge, search for new partners to do business with, and invest in others. The IMN Stuttgart members who joined us, learn about their own industry, met great business people and got a lot of personal help. Regardless of their industry, they learn everything they need to know to become successful, from the latest news on management, investment and tax, and how to set up a new business, to how to increase self-confidence and how to stay agile and keep their fingers on the business pulse. What it really gives us all is a great advantage as a community, making meaningful connections with like minded people and helping each other.

Our community is not so old but we are growing together. We would love to invite more people to join us. We have many success stories and all members understand that we created a place of all possibilities simply because we are a strong team and we help one another.”

Since it’s launch, Intelligent Millionaires Network Stuttgart, scaled up into an exclusive network for entrepreneurs and individuals who want to be more successful in life, create new projects and invest in real estate.

With years of investing in the German market, especially in Stuttgart, where good deals are classed as ‘Mission impossible’, Florence developed an eye for very profitable investments opportunities. Every single project proved to be profitable and Florence’s portfolio is expanding under the bliss of their family life. Parenting three children or finding “impossible” deals are bold moves but having great mentors is the best moved they could ever make.

“Inspired by my coach Silvija Popovic who is always here when I have a question and who guides me while navigating through the next level of my success, I am confident in helping others to make the right move, and change their life for good. I am aware that most difficulties in day to day reality, are mindset based. I help the people who are ready to change, to grow a positive mindset and of course give them adequate tools and solutions when they need help.”
