Can success create a false sense of invincibility? For Pete, it did—and it cost him millions.

After selling his business for $80 million, Pete felt unstoppable. But his overconfidence led him into a risky venture that didn’t pay off. Determined to prove he wasn’t a one-hit wonder, Pete ignored the warnings, thinking his past success guaranteed future wins. Instead, he faced one of the hardest losses of his career.

In this episode, Pete shares how his upbringing shaped his hunger for security, how overconfidence after a major exit led to a business failure, and how he’s rebuilding emotionally and financially.

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.
