Creative Deal Structures: Cash, Platform, or Acquisition

Entrepreneurship often promises freedom, but for many high performers, success can come at the cost of time, health, and relationships. After years in private equity, Sahil Bloom realized that money alone doesn’t guarantee fulfillment, freedom, or a meaningful life. That realization deepened when he learned he might only see his parents 15 more times before they passed if he stayed on his current path. Within 45 days, he left his job, sold his house, and rebuilt his life around what mattered most. In this episode, now on Spotify Video, Sahil breaks down the five types of wealth entrepreneurs need to acquire to win in both business and life.
