31 episodesRE-RUN Imagine being worth $150 million. Liquid. Now imagine being worth that much, and only spending $5,000 a month. That’s the reality for this episode’s guest. “Cam” is going to share a lot of financial details with us, so he’s asked to remain anonymous. What we can tell you, is that he made most of his money when a business he started went public at a valuation of around a billion dollars. That happened in his late 30s. In his early 30s, Cam was still only worth a couple grand. There’re a lot of crazy stories in between that we’ll hear about in this episode. Including how his first million was almost accidental. We’ll also explore why Cam’s monthly spend is so low, how his value of privacy and the impact money has on relationships plays into that, and where that $5k goes every month. On top of that, we’ll get into the nitty gritty about how he’s saving and investing the rest of his money, as well as the kind of spending that brings Cam genuine joy.

What happens when wealth pushes your relationships to the limit? Navigating life after a massive financial windfall isn’t easy—it can transform your life, your marriage, and your happiness in unexpected ways. Our guest, Chuck, shares his story of selling his company for $2.5 billion and the emotional and relational challenges that followed. His perspective is shaped not only by his own journey but also by a family history of building and losing fortunes. Chuck’s background is as bold as it gets. By 28, he was making $800K a year in sales, but he risked it all to build a company from scratch. That gamble paid off, with his business growing to hundreds of millions in revenue before selling in a deal that changed his life forever. However, the wealth brought its own struggles—unexpected divides in his marriage, a sense of purpose lost, and lessons about how money can either enhance or destroy a family.

What happens when the big exit doesn’t fill the void? Josh Payne thought selling his company for $80 million would be the defining moment of his life. Instead, it sent him into one of the darkest periods he’d ever experienced. Josh’s story is a testament to the complexity of success. As the founder of StackCommerce, Josh grew his company from $0 to $32 million in annual revenue, eventually selling it for a life-changing sum. But with his emotional wellbeing tied so closely to his business success, he found himself struggling to find purpose once his goal was achieved. In this episode, you’ll learn how Josh’s early years in the Midwest shaped his drive for entrepreneurship, what it felt like to grow a company from nothing to millions—and why he struggled when growth slowed, the challenges and emotions of selling his business and suddenly becoming a multi-millionaire, as well as how he found his way out of post-sale depression through therapy, family, and physical challenges like completing an Ironman and why Josh is now building a new company—but this time, with a focus on joy, service, and sustainability.

What would you do if you became a millionaire at 18? For MLB pitcher Jacob Turner, the real question was: how do I make sure I don't lose it all? Jacob signed a $7 million contract with the Detroit Tigers as a teenager, and suddenly, his life changed overnight. While most of us can’t imagine dealing with that level of wealth so young, Jacob had to figure it out fast—and he didn’t want to be another cautionary tale of an athlete who blew it all. Jacob Turner isn’t just a former MLB pitcher—he’s a financial expert with a mission. After a decade in professional sports, he transitioned into the financial world to help athletes and entrepreneurs navigate wealth.
