424: Net Worth Of $1.2 & $1.0M - Fresh Pressed Finances: How the Wealth Juice Duo Built Millions

🔥 Episode Summary

In this episode, we're joined by Cory and Ryan—two friends, first-generation millionaires, and the duo behind the Wealth Juice podcast. With net worths of $1.0M and $1.2M respectively, they pull back the curtain on how they built wealth the slow and steady way—without flashy investments, inheritance, or lucky breaks.

Cory and Ryan walk us through their early financial habits, how their friendship helped hold each other accountable, and how they've managed to blend entrepreneurship, side hustles, and smart investing into a sustainable wealth-building strategy. Whether it's real estate, index funds, or knowing when not to spend, these two keep it real, relatable, and refreshingly fun.

If you've ever wondered what two regular guys with seven-figure net worths actually talk about when the mics are off… this is that conversation.
