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 $250,000,000+ 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 https://Skool.com, which is a platform for people to build communities online, making a living doing what they love, with people like them.
36 yrs old: I did a $106M book launch selling 3.6M copies of my $100M Money Models book, in 72 hours, breaking the Guinness world record for the fastest selling non-fiction book of all time.

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

Blake Johnson is the serial entrepreneur behind multiple major exits, including a $97 million sale and the billion-dollar acquisition of Byte.

But before the exits, the teams, and the success, he was waking up at 3:05 a.m. to work brutal days on a cattle ranch and feedlot.

During the 2008 financial crisis, his business nearly collapsed, his partner walked away, and Blake was left with just $7,000 to his name and a $43,000 payroll due two weeks later.

He survived, rebuilt, and became obsessed with creating companies that were profitable, scalable, and designed to be acquired from day one.

Years later, he bootstrapped Byte, scaled the team from roughly 100 to 500 people, and sold the company for more than $1 billion.

In this episode, Blake breaks down customer acquisition, bootstrapping, private equity, building teams, finding massive markets, preparing for an exit, and the simple business math behind building companies buyers actually want.

I have been wanting to do this episode for a long time.

This one is personal. I have spent most of my life grinding, building, and pushing myself to the limit. And somewhere along the way I stopped giving myself permission to actually live. My body was there for birthdays, vacations, and bedtimes. My mind was not. This episode is my attempt to fix that. For me and for you.

Dr. Guy Winch is one of the world's leading psychologists. His TED talks have over 40 million views. His book, Mind Over Grind, is one of the most important books I have read in years. He is not here to tell you to slow down and smell the roses. He is here to show you that the way you are working right now is quietly costing you everything that actually matters. And he has the science to prove it.

Here is what you will gain from this episode:

- The #1 Deathbed Regret: Find out what people wish most at the end of their lives and why it is not what you think it is

- Stop Ruminating: Learn the exact process for turning harmful work rumination into productive problem solving so your evenings belong to you again

- Micro Breaks: Discover the research-backed practice that high performers use to actually perform better by working smarter throughout the day

- The Transition Ritual: Get a practical step-by-step system for training your brain to clock out from work so you can be truly present at home

- Challenge vs. Threat Mindset: Understand the single mental shift that separates people who perform under pressure from people who crumble under it

Stop kicking the can. The life you keep saying you will enjoy later is happening right now.

Episode 26: Inside Bob Proctor’s Life and Final Lessons | A Conversation with His Son Brian Proctor

In this episode, I sit down with Brian Proctor, Bob Proctor’s son, for a conversation that is deeply personal and very meaningful to me.

Bob Proctor has been one of the greatest influences in my life and in my work. Speaking with his son, someone who worked alongside him for nearly 30 years, offered a rare and intimate look into his life, his thinking, and the principles he lived by until the very end.

Brian shares personal stories about growing up with Bob, the lessons he received as a child, and the deeper teachings that never made it to a stage. We speak about freedom, self-image, worthiness, service, and what it really takes to create a life that reflects who you are.

In this conversation, Brian also shares:
- What Bob Proctor was still studying in his final days
- A four-letter lesson he learned at age 9 that shaped his entire life
- How a simple toy car became one of his most powerful lessons in goal setting
- Why “touching lightly” changes the way we create results
- What it means to truly bet on yourself
This conversation offers a rare window into Bob Proctor’s legacy through the eyes of his son.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In this thought-provoking episode, Tom Bilyeu sits down with philosopher and Bitcoin advocate Robert Breedlove for a deep dive into the very foundations of money, government, and personal sovereignty.

The conversation kicks off with a timely discussion about the recent election of a socialist mayor in New York City, leading Robert Breedlove to unpack the historical and economic consequences of socialist and central banking policies. Together, they explore the real-life impact of inflation, deficit spending, and how money printing quietly erodes individual wealth—often without the public truly understanding how they're being affected.

The episode doesn't shy away from bold questions, challenging listeners to look beyond political soundbites and consider who actually holds the power in modern societies. You'll hear Robert Breedlove outline why he sees central banking as an institution deeply at odds with free markets, and why Bitcoin—and its fixed supply—may be the most robust form of private property ever created.

From the dangers of unchecked government power to the revolutionary promise of decentralized finance, this episode offers a roadmap for those trying to navigate today's economic turbulence. Whether you're a seasoned investor, passionate about personal freedom, or just curious about the link between money and political power, Tom Bilyeu and Robert Breedlove bring accessible, actionable insights that will change the way you think about your role in the financial system.

Strap in for a conversation that covers everything from historical revolutions and the mechanics of inflation to the question of whether Bitcoin really can be the "life raft" for average people in a rapidly changing world. This is an episode you won't want to miss!

Hear firsthand the anxieties and hopes of a new generation, candid debates on the role of corporate power, and Bernie Sanders's vision for ensuring AI serves the public good—not just the tech elite. Whether you're excited or worried about the rise of intelligent machines, this episode will challenge your assumptions and spark reflection on the values that should shape our digital future.

Can you become a self-taught genius, or is that just a myth? Intelligence research suggests the answer is more complex than you think.

Many people believe that high intelligence is entirely innate, but the actual data tell a different story. This breakdown examines the arguments presented in NJ Macintosh's book, IQ and Human Intelligence.

Whether you are an educator, a student, or simply interested in how we define academic achievement, this analysis clarifies what the science really says about your potential.

The FDA just cleared a clinical trial that could mark a major turning point in the science of aging.
At the 2026 World Governments Summit, David Sinclair discussed the possibility of reversing aspects of biological aging and explained how scientists are moving from laboratory research toward human clinical testing. �

World Governments Summit
The breakthrough involves epigenetic reprogramming — an approach designed to restore older or damaged cells toward a younger, more functional state without changing the underlying DNA sequence.
In January 2026, the U.S. FDA cleared the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for ER-100, developed by Life Biosciences. The Phase 1 trial is studying the therapy in patients with optic neuropathies, including open-angle glaucoma and NAION.

Then, in June 2026, Life Biosciences announced that the first participant had been dosed in the Phase 1 ER-100 clinical trial. The study is primarily evaluating safety and tolerability, while also assessing measures of visual function.


ER-100 uses controlled expression of three transcription factors — OCT4, SOX2 and KLF4 (OSK) — as part of Life Biosciences' epigenetic restoration approach. The goal is to restore cellular function by resetting aspects of the epigenetic state toward more youthful patterns.

But there is an important distinction:
Scientists have NOT proven that they can reverse human aging yet.
This is an early Phase 1 clinical trial. The results will have to show whether the approach is safe and whether the biological effects seen in preclinical research can translate into meaningful benefits in humans.
In this video, we look at what David Sinclair explains about the breakthrough, what scientists have actually achieved, how epigenetic reprogramming works, why the FDA clearance matters, and what the first human trial could mean for the future of aging research.

Could this be the beginning of a new era in medicine — where scientists don't just treat diseases of aging, but target the biology of aging itself?
We'll break down the science, the clinical trial, the evidence, and the questions that remain unanswered.

This video is for educational and informational purposes. The therapies discussed are investigational and are not approved treatments for reversing aging.
