How a Pastor Thinks About Money: The Deal Filter for Ethical Property Investing

If your wealth strategy forces you to compromise your values, it is not wealth. It is debt with better branding.

Just recorded an episode with Pastor Mark Tung, a pastor and property developer who invests through one principle: stewardship.

Meaning: you treat other people’s money as conservatively as your own, because when a deal goes wrong, all you really have is your name and reputation.

Big takeaway: stewardship is a decision filter for:

• Who you partner with
• Which deals you walk away from (even when the numbers look “good”)
• How you stay steady through cost blowouts, delays, and pressure
• Whether you build something you’re proud of in 10 years

For anyone in property, business, or leadership: this one lands.
