About this episode

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. We dive deep into his financial epiphany, his coaching career, and how he halved his spending while learning to respect money in a whole new way.

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.
