Thinking about selling your company? 24 founders told us what really happens after the wire hits. — joinhampton.com/exit-report
Inside Alex Hormozi’s decade-long climb from $0 to $200M+.
Here’s what we talk about:
- A transparent breakdown of his $200M+ net worth: $95M in liquid assets, $100M+ in illiquid equity
- The Gym Launch explosion: from near-bankruptcy to $42M in distributions and a $31M cash sale by age 31
- Why selling made him feel poorer, and why he’ll never cut off his “cash flow firehose” again
- Launching Acquisition.com the day after his exit to build a “forever business” using capital, skill, and leverage
- His high-yield side plays: hard money lending, minority equity deals, and how he’s made six figures a month in interest alone
- Lifestyle spending habits – including losing a $20M Vegas dream home
- Why most founders shouldn’t bank on an exit, and the slim statistical odds of selling successfully
- The mindset shift he’s working on now: being in a better mood regardless of success, stress, or circumstances
