113 Damion Lupo Take Charge of Your Money
Damion Lupo
On today’s episode, Jaime Jay welcomes Damion Lupo. Damion is the CEO and Founder of Total Control Financial, Inc. He’s a seasoned entrepreneur, who is set to helping others take charge of their finances. Tune in to his fascinating story, and learn how you can create your own financial destiny!
Off an Early Start
Damion accidentally started his own business at 11 years old. He wanted to play video games, but was financially constrained. So, he sought for ways to earn money.
“If we’re willing to get off the bench—willing to do something—we can solve just about any problem we have.” -Damion Lupo
He found leads from the newspaper as to where he could buy video games. For that, he hired his parents to drive him to their houses, bought their games in bulk, and sold the items one at a time.
Seeing the Opportunity
Awareness is the key to solving a problem. Damion wanted the games so much that it opened him to opportunities.
“It’s funny that these things are just right in front of us.” -Damion Lupo
He believes that when we are conscious, our eyes open up and allow us to see things that we never thought was just around. Everyone needs to be aware to see the opportunity.
On the Path to Freedom
Candor, growth, and a big vision are essential to become totally free. When Damion started his career, his idea of freedom and wealth was about earning more. He invested in real estates for money.
“The why for me was just more money, which is a really dangerous why because you’ll do just about anything to get to it.” -Damion Lupo
He thought himself amazing after a number of remarkable accomplishments. He realized, however, that he was not being candid and transparent. The universe eventually spilled over him.

About Jaime Jay
Meet Jaime Jay – a man who wears many hats, and wears them all admirably. He's a master connector, an entrepreneur extraordinaire, and a published author who knows how to get things done.
Before he found his way to the business world, Jaime served his country as a brave paratrooper in the U.S. Army. But that's just the beginning of his many accomplishments.
He's the founder of the renowned Bottleneck Distant Assistant Services firm, and his book "Quit Repeating Yourself" has become a must-read for entrepreneurs everywhere.
When he's not busy building his empire, you can find him on his beloved Harley Davidson, cruising through the countryside and taking in the invigorating effects of Uitwaaien – a Dutch practice that involves facing the wind to boost health and relieve stress.
He enjoys spending his free time outside building stuff with his wife, Nikita the dog and their two kittens (for now at least) Tommy and Tater.
He is ‘over-the-moon’ happily married to his wonderful wife Sara, his amazing daughter, Jessica, who is serving our country as a United States Army soldier. Jaime and Sara are the proud grand parents of two beautiful little girls.

Rockwell Felder2023-03-15I cannot thank the team at Bottleneck enough for their incredible support of our business. Their team has played a vital role in helping us staff our customer support and ensuring our customers were satisfied with our services. Their Distant Assistants were extremely helpful in answering inquiries promptly, handling complaints, and providing solutions to our customers' needs. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and communication skills are exceptional. Working with Bottleneck has been a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend their services to anyone needing a reliable and efficient virtual assistant, especially for customer support.

Jeany Mercadal2022-09-16Bottleneck Distant Assistants can lessen the burden of company owners. We provide excellent services depending on our client needs. We are not scam, clients surely get more than what they pay for. Being part of this team helped me hone my skills and become excellent in all my works.
Jeff Peñaflor2022-09-14I started last March 24, 2021 as a Dedicated Distant Assistant and it was an awesome experience. In this new journey, as Security Administrator of Bottleneck Distant Assistants, I have been supported by the team, A LOT !!!! All help that I need, the whole team is there to support me. I know that there are a lot of room for improvements with my skills and what I know, but because of BNDA, I became equipped with all the weapons I need to conquer the daily challenges especially with my tasks. With BNDA, they will not just help you to aim high, but soar the skies!
Tinoe D2022-09-09I don't remember the last time I loved what I was doing until Bottleneck came into the picture. I love working for bottleneck, they are professional. The management makes the workplace fun and they're very flexible. I definetly recommend that you make that important switch and be part of something big today by joining BNDA.

Ma. Edeliza Silot2022-09-07Aside from the knowledge gained, the trainers are highly commendable.
Sara Knox2022-09-07What an awesome business! Finally, a way to hire the RIGHT person for my administrative tasks and they are remote! No office space to consider, W2's, 1099's or payroll. Jaime and his team of remote workers are top-notch! I hired my first assistant in May. I recently suffered a motorcycle accident and it left me unable to work for 2 weeks. But my assistant stepped right in to guide our CEO on all matters financial. It’s so nice to have that stress eliminated from my life!
