He’s worth 8 figures, owns a private jet, and still tracks every dollar. Nick Huber says avoiding lifestyle creep is harder, and more important, than getting rich.

Here’s what we talk about:

How Nick Huber built an 8-figure net worth from sweaty startups and smart real estate plays.
Why he keeps over $2M liquid and doesn’t touch stocks.
His exact monthly burn (yes, including the jet) and how he keeps it under $25K.
The psychology behind lifestyle creep, and why he’s borderline paranoid about fixed costs.
Why he’d rather live modestly than risk losing what he’s built.
The emotional rollercoaster of lumpy cash flow, $900K tax bills, and late-night financial dread.
How he justifies buying a private jet.
His next goal: $1M/month in personal profit, and why he's not trying to be a media mogul along the way.
