| 0:00.0 | I think a lot of people would like to make the job of the CEO one where you don't have to talk to |
| 0:04.9 | people as much. And I actually think the best CEOs spend most of their time talking to people, |
| 0:10.0 | employees, clients, vendors, like building relationships. |
| 0:18.9 | How do you create an unshakable business? I cross $100 million in net worth by the age of 28. |
| 0:24.6 | Now I'm growing acquisition.com into a billion dollar portfolio. In this podcast, I share the lessons |
| 0:29.2 | I've learned in scaling big businesses and helping our portfolio companies do the same. |
| 0:33.5 | Buckle up and let's build. |
| 0:40.8 | What's up guys? |

| 1:21.6 | life in general. And so for me, it was only interesting to make and a topic to talk about today |
| 1:25.7 | because I was a little embarrassed of how I used to view work and how low my work ethic used to be. And at the same time, I'm proud |
| 1:32.8 | of how far it come. And so the goal of this is that if you feel like you're somebody who you really |
