Arnold Schwarzenegger is well aware of what it takes to be successful. The Austrian-born actor turned politician paved his own way toward a successful Hollywood career.<\/p>\n

Arnold Schwarzenegger is known for playing tough guys on screen, and in his real life it seems like he holds onto some of that toughness as well. Joseph Baena is the actor\u2019s son who he had with his housekeeper Mildred Patricia Baena. At the time, Schwarzenegger was married to journalist Maria Shriver. His affair shocked the world and his fans.<\/p>\n

Schwarzenegger supported his son throughout his life and gave him a monthly allowance to help with his expenses. But it seems that he was on a deadline; as soon as he finished college, he was to handle his own finances.<\/p>\n

It is not like Schwarzenegger is short on cash, the actor has made millions in his career and owns a luxurious gym that brings in a lot of money. Baena, who chose to use his mother\u2019s last name as his, said he was happy his father supported him while he was studying.<\/p>\n

But the young man wants to forge his own identity as well. He said in an interview, \u201cMy dad is old-school; he doesn\u2019t believe in handouts. He believes hard work pays off, and so do I.\u201d Adding, \u201cI love the word honor, and I\u2019m very prideful in the sense that if I use my dad\u2019s contacts or ask him for favors, I wonder what honor is that gonna bring me?\u201d<\/p>\n

Like his father, he wanted to make a career in acting and bodybuilding. He wanted to make a career as an actor but soon found out that it was tough to do so. The young man was unable to find work that would help him pay his bills.<\/p>\n

This made the young actor and body-builder pivot in his career and trained as a real estate agent. His background with a diploma in Business Administration helped him in his quest.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo yeah, I needed a job, and I was not getting any of the acting roles that I thought I was going to get, and like starting to get paid,\u201d he continued. \u201cI was like, \u2018I need to do something.\u2019 So I started interning at this real estate company,\u201d 25-year-old Baena said.<\/p>\n

Now the young man has a promising career in real estate as well. He sold his first house last year, making a post to share about his excitement about the milestone. He posted a picture of himself holding a \u2018SOLD\u2019 sign with the caption, \u201cSOLD!!! Congratulations to my clients for trusting myself and @aria_properties to sell their beautiful Santa Monica Property!\ud83c\udf7e\ud83c\udf89\ud83c\udf8a.\u201d<\/p>\n
