My highschool sweetheart sold her car to fund my business.
10 years later, I sold that business for $180M with my brothers.
Many people don’t know, but I’ve been married to my highschool sweetheart for 15 years. We lived in a tiny apartment when I decided to start a business with my brothers, with zero funding. So she sold her car that she had spent her life savings on to help us get started.
During the lows of the business, she never once doubted the dream…
Instead, she said, “What do you need me to do?“
She listened to every half-baked idea. Coached me through all the drama and dark days. On the brink of a few mental breakdowns she pushed me to keep going.
And in the wins, no one cheered louder.
She’s never asked for credit, but the truth is she’s the reason for every business success I’ve had.
If you’re building something big…here’s my cheat code. Find a partner who believes in you before the world does.
And marry her.
(p.s. she finally got the car she deserved)
