Gino Barbaro: From $450M in Real Estate to Building Family Wealth, Financial Freedom & a Lasting Legacy

Gino Barbaro: Building Wealth, Strengthening Families & Creating a Lasting Legacy What does it mean to be truly wealthy? Is it the money you accumulate, the businesses you build, or the legacy you leave behind for the people you love?

Universal Podcast Network welcomes Gino Barbaro, entrepreneur, real estate investor, bestselling author, Certified Money Coach®, and co-founder of Jake & Gino and Barbaro 360, for a compelling conversation about financial freedom, family values, and the deeper meaning of wealth.

Gino's entrepreneurial journey includes building a real estate portfolio of more than 1,900 multifamily units and $450 million in assets under management alongside his business partner, Jake Stenziano. Through Jake & Gino, he established himself in multifamily real estate investing, entrepreneurship, and financial education.

But Gino's story extends beyond financial achievements.

After years of building businesses and investing in real estate, Gino increasingly focused on a different question: What good is financial success if it comes at the expense of family relationships, personal fulfillment, and lasting happiness?

Together with his wife, Julia, Gino co-founded Barbaro 360, an initiative dedicated to helping families strengthen their relationships, improve financial communication, and build meaningful legacies rooted in shared values.

As a Certified Money Coach®, Gino helps individuals and families examine their relationship with money, address financial anxiety, improve communication, and develop greater confidence in their financial decisions.

He is also the author of Happy Money Happy Family Happy Legacy, a book exploring the relationship between financial decisions, family happiness, and generational legacy, and Baby Money Soldiers, which introduces children to foundational financial concepts.
