230: From Entrepreneur to Investor – How to Build & Manage Wealth After an Exit with Dr. Tony Jacob

So you’ve sold your business—what’s your next step?

Most entrepreneurs spend years building their businesses, but when they finally exit, they struggle to transition from managing staff and emails to all the investing opportunities they now have. 

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Dr. Tony Jacob—an entrepreneur who scaled and exited the largest private optometry roll-up in Texas history. After his exit, Tony faced the challenge of shifting from business owner to capital allocator, learning firsthand the risks of rushing into investments, the importance of patience, and how to structure a family office for long-term wealth preservation.

We’re diving into how to avoid the common pitfalls of post-exit investing, how to build a bulletproof asset allocation strategy, and the growing role of Bitcoin in family office portfolios.

If you’re an entrepreneur preparing for an exit—or you’ve already sold and want to make smarter financial decisions—this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The biggest investing mistakes post-exit entrepreneurs make—and how to avoid them.

• Why capital preservation is just as important as wealth creation—and how to structure your portfolio to last generations.

• Why Bitcoin is becoming a strategic asset for family offices and institutional investors.
