I React to Patrick Bet-David’s Video About Elon Musk
Want to SCALE your business? Go here: acquisition.com
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.

I get it but why’s he fucking around with Twitter then? Seems like a distraction.
It’s not theoretical: he is saving humanity with space X. The same way Westinghouse improved the lives of our species yet at the time few had the wisdom to see it.

Saving the world would be trying to fight global warming. Not trying to abandon Earth for another planet & have the past repeat itself
Ngl he probably knows much more than the general public does and he’s tryna save himself from ww3 😂
Do a PBD podcast it was slammmm!!!
I disagree even though I’m a huge fan of Elon. To me Elon is more of a war general. The ultimate strategist. He plays the game like a war and in any war you play to defeat and win. He is smart enough to know how people are motivated and he is using the hope agenda to almost win any war. He allies with the government too. Literally all of his companies get subsidies just to operate. Either me or anyone can tell what is going on in his heart and that is actually not important. Whether he cares about humanity or makes you and I think he cares about it doesn’t matter. He is goat, the elite and The Napoleon of building businesses

Mathematically speaking if we don't have entry-level Terra-forming capabilities on Mars by 2050 we will be extinct by 2100. I calculated the human population rate in relation to the extinction rate of wildlife, in high school, I graduated in 2002.
because he has unlimited money a single person could use for in life so he plays the way he wants elon is great
Well then he must save the cheerleader 😂
Dont you think that if we have the tech to go to mars in the future and the tech to terraform mars, wouldnt it be more logical that we use that futuristic technology to reverse any damage and improve the earth we currently live in? It doesn’t make sense to take the harder and impossible route at that point. Also who gets to decide who gets to go or not?
I feel like Alex has the same observation/angle as Bill Gates 🤣🤣🤣
He put $100 million in SpaceX because he was re-imagining the entire rocket program and it takes a lot of starting capital to do that All Tesla did was put a battery in a car. The car part already existed. And they even can’t put the car together well STILL.

He already told you in the video. Investing the biggest portion of his wealth into a rigged industry that was also a synonym for the hardest thing in the world (rocket science), is proof that he was doing it for a cause he genuinely believed in. If he was only doing it for money, literally any other industry would have been a far safer bet. He had to sue government just to be allowed to compete. The proof is in the pudding. The choice of industry, is proof of what he believes in.
