When Your Startup Exit Fails… What’s Next?

Hear how Curt Stevenson pivoted after a failed exit—and built real freedom through real estate.

Dear Future Billionaires,    Can you feel set for life—and still end up back at a 9 to 5?   That's what happened to Curt Stevenson.   On paper, Curt looked golden: successful tech founder, multiple exits, and enough stock to feel "done." But then the acquiring company tanked—and Curt had to rebuild.   In this week's episode of Invest Like a Billionaire, Curt shares how he went from burned by a stock-heavy exit to building a stable, diversified income stream—primarily through real estate investing.   Inside the episode: • Why turnkey rentals were Curt's "get rich really slowly" strategy ​​• How syndications helped him scale without scaling effort • His current allocation—including a surprising asset class that now pays his rent • The #1 mistake investors make when evaluating sponsors (and how to avoid it)   If you're building toward time freedom or considering a portfolio shift, this episode is a masterclass in long-game investing.   🎧 [Listen Now] – and remember: don't count your cash until it's in the account.
