RE-RUN
There was a time when Neil Patel said a $15k/month burn rate was all he needed. But now his monthly burn is $200k. Roughly. He’s not completely certain… because he doesn’t budget. So what changed in his life to make his burn rate increase nearly 14 fold? That’s what this episode is going to find out.
Neil Patel is a household name (for marketers). He’s an entrepreneur and blogger known for his expertise in digital marketing and SEO. He co-founded companies like Crazy Egg, Hello Bar, and KISSmetrics, but his biggest company is his namesake, Neil Patel Digital.
In this episode, Neil not only explains how and why his spending has evolved to the point where he’s burning $2.4 million a year, he’ll also break down where that money is going, how it compares to his income, investments, and savings, and why he doesn’t feel the need to set a budget.
He’ll also get candid about how he uses his money to bring joy to his life, and he’ll share how soon he plans on being a billionaire.
This is MoneyWise, a podcast where host Sam Parr is joined by high-net-worth guests to explore exclusive insights into personal finance and lifestyle tailored for other high-net-worth people, or those on their way. They'll get radically transparent about the numbers, revealing things like their burn rates, portfolios, and spending habits.

What’s the real cost of building wealth—and how do you stay grounded after achieving it?
Steve Houghton, a billionaire entrepreneur, has a life philosophy that’s as intentional as his business strategies. From self-made success to crafting a fulfilling personal life, Steve shares the five pillars that help him stay healthy, happy, and wealthy.
Steve’s journey started with selling books as a teenager, earning the equivalent of $100,000 today, and grew to building successful ventures in real estate and oil and gas. But what really sets Steve apart is how he uses his wealth—never selling his best assets and focusing on the compounding power of capital to achieve long-term financial stability.
In this episode, Steve explains how he grew from a frugal Utah upbringing to managing a fortune. He breaks down his five-pillar framework for a wealthy life: financial, emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual health.

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.

13 million dollars is a lot. But is it enough to retire on?
For pre-epiphany Ryan Begelman, the answer is no.
Ryan built his wealth working in the corporate world, then decided to risk it all and bought into Bisnow. That risk paid off, and Ryan made a huge profit. But despite his successes, he found himself grappling with lifestyle inflation, misguided investments, and financial uncertainty.
In this episode, Ryan opens up about his struggles with managing wealth after a big exit, how flashy spending left him unprepared, and why life coaching became the tool that helped him find real security.

Imagine waking up one day to find nearly everything you've worked for is gone.
Today’s guest, Domenic, lived through that nightmare.
His story begins at Facebook, where he was one of the early employees during the dawn of the social media era. He wisely took as much equity as possible, which paid off handsomely when the company went public. Despite his newfound wealth, a series of unfortunate decisions—risky investments, a poorly negotiated acquisition, and unforeseen personal losses—led him to lose nearly everything he had earned.
Domenic’s tale is not just about loss but about resilience. From growing up in a modest household in Southern Virginia to navigating the high-stakes world of Silicon Valley, he shares his experiences of building wealth, facing devastating setbacks, and the philosophy that keeps him moving forward.

Dating is already weird and vulnerable, but when you’re wealthy, talking finances can feel like dropping a bombshell.
In this episode, we explore the complexities of dating with significant wealth and how to handle the inevitable conversations about money.
Today's guest, who we'll call Alex, is worth around $133 million. His journey to wealth began with a company he founded with his now ex-wife, and he’s here to share his experiences on navigating the dating world post-divorce.
Alex started his entrepreneurial journey with multiple failed ventures before hitting success with his third company, which he co-founded with his ex-wife. After a difficult and non-amicable divorce, which involved complex asset division, Alex found himself back on the dating scene.
In this episode, Alex opens up about the unique anxieties of dating with a substantial net worth. He discusses how he avoids flaunting his wealth to prevent attracting the wrong kind of attention. We delve into the challenges of sharing financial details with new partners and the importance of finding someone who shares similar lifestyle values. Alex also shares practical advice on how to approach the conversation about money with transparency and integrity, and his personal experiences in navigating these waters.

How much money do you need to be happy?
Money alone is not going to make you a happy person, but it can sure as hell help you get there. Money can buy you security, time, health, and safety for you and your loved ones, and it can relieve stress when it comes to life's financial pressures.
To say that money can't impact your happiness is naive. But what we want to know is, when is enough, enough?
If you don't know that number, you can easily slip into the hole of always needing and wanting more, which inevitably takes away from your happiness. At a certain point, you start wasting your time and adding stress to your life in the never-ending pursuit of more.
So what is the threshold when it's time to end the chase and simply enjoy the life you've built for yourself?
In this episode, Ankur Nagpal shared his number. Ankur Nagpal is in his early thirties with a net worth north of nine figures. He started raking in money in college with his Facebook App business, but his real life-changing moment was when he sold his company Teachable for a quarter billion dollars. Now, he's the founder of fintech company Carry, formerly known as Ocho.
Ankur will tell us about the financial decisions he made that contributed to his happiness, the mistakes he made, and he's radically transparent about the numbers while he does so.
Sam will also share his own "happiness threshold" number, and we'll also get input from another guy who rakes in over $10 million a year.

And Anne Mahlum has earned hers.
She has dedicated her life to self-improvement and continuous learning. Because of that, combined with her insanely positive attitude, she’s built a networth of well over $100M.

In this episode, Anne reveals the origins of her drive and how it has evolved into a healthier motivation. She shares the stories of her nonprofit and for-profit ventures, complete with detailed financial insights.
