Want to START a business? Go here: skool.com/games
If you’re new to my channel, my name is Alex Hormozi. I’m the founder and managing partner of Acquisition.com. It’s a family office, which is just a formal way of saying we invest our own money into companies. Our 10 portfolio companies bring in over $200,000,000+ per year. Our ownership stake varies between 20% and 100% of them. Given this is a YT channel, and anyone can claim anything, I’ll give you some stuff you can google to verify below.
How I got here…
21: Graduated Vanderbilt in 3 years Magna Cum Laude, and took a fancy consulting job.
23 yrs old: Left my fancy consulting job to start a business (a gym).
24 yrs old: Opened 5 gym locations.
26 yrs old: Closed down 6th gym. Lost everything.
26 yrs old: Got back to launching gyms (launched 33). Then, lost everything for a 2nd time.
26 yrs old: In desperation, started licensing model as a hail mary. It worked.
27 yrs old: "Gym Launch" does $3M profit the next 6 months. Then $17M profit next 12 months.
28 yrs old: Started Prestige Labs. $20M the first year.
29 yrs old: Launched ALAN, a software company for agencies to work leads for customers. Scaled to $1.7mmo within 6 months.
31 yrs old: Sold 75% of UseAlan to a strategic buyer in an all stock deal.
31 yrs old: Sold 66% of Gym Launch & Prestige Labs at $46.2M valuation in all-cash deal to American Pacific Group. (you can google it)
31 yrs old: Started our family office Acquisition.com. We invest and scale companies using the $42M in distributions we had taken + the cash from the $46.2M exit.
32 yrs old: Started making free content showing how we grow companies to make real business education accessible to everyone (and) to attract business owners to invest or scale their businesses.
34 yrs old: I became co-owner of Skool.com to help the many people who want to start a business online do so.
Today: Our portfolio now does $200M/yr between 10 companies. The largest doing $100M/yr the smallest doing $5M per year. Our ownership varies between 20% and 100% ownership of the companies. Many of them we invested in early and helped grow (which is how we make our money - not youtube videos).
To all the gladiators in the arena, we’re all in the middle of writing our own stories. The worse the monsters, the more epic the story.
You either get an epic outcome or an epic story. Both mean you win.
Keep crushing. May your desires be greater than your obstacles.
Never quit,
Alex
FULL DISCLOSURE
I make content to make money - just - on a longer time horizon than most. I want to build trust with business owners so we can find the best ones and help them scale. And if they’re awesome, write them a check and go all the way as partners.

In my 20s, no one mentored me or gave experience. I thought like Alex that if I offered to work for free/cheap to get experience then I’d get experience. Instead I was taken advantage of time and time again. When I started charging the market rate and making real money, suddenly people started investing in me. Cheap employers are cheap with their time not just money.

@@louksy3289 I worked for free for months. Earned them lots of money. Got zero experience in return. My legal work was billed out at full rate but I was paid nothing.

Especially if like me you were promised a paid job after x amount of months but did not get it.

The pay is not that good I make enough to live comfortably, but the things I’ve learned from this job is a great experience for me in the long run I’ve matured quite a bit working with people older, and more mature than me, learning professionalism, hard work, handling stress, etc, all the things I’ll need to learn to excel in entrepreneurship, and my future endeavors.

I definitely agree with everything you say in this video, only thing I’d say is everybody’s path to success is different. For me I’ve worked tons of jobs, went to school for VFX, went into a trade, did menial jobs like grocery store manager and a cook at a restaurant. And I’ve come to realize that working for other people is too hard, especially for me because I’m a very routinely person. I’ve started my own business module. And I’m way happier working my own schedule. And not dealing and/or answering to others. But I think, the bigger problem today is lifestyle inflation.

Now I start to think about how I can combine my developer skills and business skills in the future, what skills I need to learn. After this video, everything became clearer, now I understand that a. I need a mentor b. I need to learn skills that will help me in my life I don't know if I understand you fully or even correctly, but thank you Alex)

While I do 100% agree, I'd quite like it if more people talked about how the system as it is contributes to keeping you poor. For example, overdraft fees. You get charged a large, flat sum for every transaction that you can't afford, but oftentimes the transaction isn't simply blocked. So you can still spend the money, but even a $10 charge that you just forgot to cancel might cost you $30-50 more. Car insurance as well. If you can afford to pay it all in one go, you get a discount. If not, they in addition to not getting that discount, you're also charged a monthly transaction fee. And so on.

I have lived this in the automotive parts industry and then in the handful of different industries I have tried. I have always been in a state of mind of teach me so i can learn and do my best at it yet when i surpass whom ever my mentor teacher is or even just match them , the pov is that my value pr paycheck doesn’t matter as long as their bottom line grows.

When he talks people listen and he never has to raise his voice to be heard. And when I was young he did NOT give me the same respect he gave his other employees cus even as his son I had to earn my place he did not dote on me or play favorites and I appreciate that. So many young guys these days are delusionaly confident and even more delusional about the level of entitlement. Stop it. You aren’t shit now fucking listen.

19 years old now and I have far more to learn about my coding journey, FYI: I never liked coding until I forced myself to do so, same with hitting the weights in the gym. Years ago being a skinny fat build with little to no math prowess, I just focused on video games and junk food. It occurred to me in real time that if I put the same effort into video gaming 10 hours a day, then there's no doubt about it that I can with certainty be damn proficient in coding as well. **Long story short: I copped a software engineering internship and leaned down to an aesthetic body build, all alongside having a long-distance girlfriend and working full-time at an amazon warehouse. It's really how you set the standard in your priorities.

I disagree in part. Learning is great. Always be advancing. But, my experience is one can make more by making lateral moves when you are advancing for more. Companies are too unwilling to see their current employees as anything other than another bill. However, they see new prospects as a shiny object to make them more money. Be the shiny object. Otherwise, they're all too happy to keep you on a hamster wheel.

In a vacuum, this advice might be great, but most of us can't do things for free. Working for free is often a gamble straight up not worth it, though being the guy willing to work hard and ready to solve any problem is always worth it, as long you won't allow yourself to get exploited.

Amazing video man. I’m a junior in high school, and I’m planning to start my own business in my very early 20s or earlier. Would you advise that I start learning now and not get paid and work for free and soak up as much information as possible? Appreciate any advice

I agree but u should still anchor to a responsible salary for the position. Companies want to see people who speak up for themselves. The salty difference is negligible.

Im 16, just started selling snacks at school to make money. Till i find something better come along. I understand everything he says now but the problem with this is. Im having a bit of doubt The reason why I want to earn now is so i can live the life i want in my 20s or 30s at most. Because i want to live the fullest to the millions i will make Im sceptical about working for free for too long because then I'll be 80 yrs old but have tons of money, There wont be purpose for me to spend my money. I'll be too old to enjoy it

That kobe reference really strikes me. I’m currently 19 and not sure what to do with my live at cc. Hopefully I find my way but I am getting lost in seeing successful peers. I’m glad to know I need to just keep my head down and keep grinding. Hopefully in a few years I’ll be able to check in with good progress.

Alex with facial hair looks so different but especially SO YOUNG. 😮🤔 I wonder if he has his facial hair partly to offset that and not look 15. Not a diss just an interesting observation. People who gave that "problem" often look great in old age cuz they still have the look younger than you are thing going for them.

When I first started my company I focused on over delivering to all my clients even if it took more time. Once customer base established and reputation established then focused on doing more and making more while keeping that same good customer service energy and reputation holding us up. Not saying I don’t deliver great value now but I’ve learned to cut expenses and make it more streamline.
@sdcityrentals
@sdcityrentals Жыл бұрын
If I had been so focused on cutting expenses and being cheap when I first started just because the profits weren’t there as much then I could have lost customers because no establishment and OK value. Most companies don’t profit right away anyways so reinvest into the company to make customer experience better

Your videos are great, but I feel like most of the content is focused on learning and gaining experience. What about when it's time to start the period of earning? How do you apply what you learned to actually earn. How to you make use of your experience that you've been building up?
