On The Chair

What does money really do to you — and are you letting it work for you?

On this episode of On The Chair, Polo Garza and Vince Gonzalez sit down for one of their most candid conversations yet — no guests, just two guys who've built real businesses and wealth from the ground up, talking openly about money, mindset, stress, and what financial success actually feels like from the inside. From Vince's experience buying into a Canadian psychology company at a 3.5x multiple to Polo's journey of flipping vintage airplanes for profit, this episode pulls back the curtain on what wealth building really looks like when you're in your 30s with families, obligations, and big ambitions.

Key Takeaways:
  1. Money magnifies who you already are — it doesn't change your character, it reveals it.
  2. Vince bought into a Canadian psychology company at a 3.5x multiple for $350,000, targeting a potential $2.5M return at exit.
  3. Vince flipped a Porsche 911 GT3 at 28 — and learned that usefulness matters more than the thrill when it comes to big purchases.
  4. Polo turned his passion for aviation into profit — buying vintage planes off market, flying them, and selling each one for a gain.
  5. Thinking in opportunity cost for every single dollar will keep you from ever actually enjoying your life.
  6. When stress hits: pacing the house, taking a shower, or hitting the gym — finding your reset rhythm matters.
  7. Trucking insurance is an underutilized revenue stream — Polo and Vince break down a potential new business direction.
  8. Hiring people who can sell — not just people who know the industry — is a game-changer for scaling teams.
  9. Both hosts reference Codie Sanchez as an influential voice for their business acquisition strategy.
  10. 2026 is already looking strong — the company is up 20-30% in January alone, and both hosts are actively expanding.

On The Chair is where real conversations about wealth building, financial independence, and success mindsets happen. Hosted by Polo Garza and Vince Gonzalez—cousins who went from zero to millionaires in just three years—this growth mindset podcast brings you unfiltered insights on real estate investing, money strategies, and the principles that actually create lasting wealth.

We're not financial gurus selling courses. We're entrepreneurs sharing what worked (and what didn't) on our journey to financial success. Each episode features honest discussions about investing, business, generational wealth, faith, and the millionaire mindsets that separate dreamers from doers. Whether you're just starting out or already building your empire, you'll find practical wisdom you can apply immediately.
Success isn't something you stumble upon. It's something you sit down with, put in the hours, and build from the ground up. Welcome to On The Chair.
