Summary

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

0:00.0	All right, so here's the deal. I just came from our 25-person all-hands meeting with all my staff at Hampton.
0:08.6	About four of the 25 people there, they were people we found via a company called Oceans.
0:15.3	Offshoring, it gets a bad rap. And it gets a bad rap because a lot of people think that the people you hire via
0:21.8	offshoring firms are low-level talent and do low-level work, or they just do stuff that AI is
0:28.0	already replacing. That is not true at all. The people who we have, they help us with marketing,
0:33.4	they do operations, and we treat them as fully part of our team because they are.

1:31.7	I made my day.
1:32.7	So here's the thing, Alex Hermosey,
1:34.8	he definitely knows how to make a lot of money.
1:36.9	We had taken 42 million in distributions before the sale.
1:40.3	And so you're 31 years old,
1:42.2	and you have something like $60 million in cash.
1:45.3	Yeah.
