How to Build, Exit & Invest Like the Ultra-Wealthy with Chris Van Dusen
Our Senior Partner Chris Van Dusen shared insights on The Lifestyle Investor podcast. He breaks down the differences between building businesses and investing in them, why luck and timing matter more than people are willing to admit, and how successful family offices and billionaires are acquiring and allocating their wealth.
️Key takeaways:️
- The difference between wealth preservation and creation is knowing what percentage to allocate to each – a portion being preserved and a portion continuing to create.
- Family offices leverage market assets to acquire more – they securitize existing holdings, borrow against them to buy new assets, use the income to pay off debt, then wash and repeat.
- Smart capital brings network access and operational expertise, not just money.
- Reckless optimism is what entrepreneurs need – the belief that you’ll succeed despite all odds, working longer hours than corporate jobs, facing constant challenges. Investors can’t always afford to have that mindset
