A French giant just paid $22.6 BILLION in cash for a software company you've probably never heard of. Not for factories. Not for machines. For lines of code. So why is software the most profitable business on earth — and why do ten thousand software companies still die in silence every single year?

In this video we break down the complete economics of owning a software company in America: the dream, the real bill, the hidden costs, and the brutal truth nobody tells you before you quit your job.

You'll learn why software has 75–90% gross margins while a grocery store fights for 2 cents on the dollar. Why starting a software company is cheap but running one will eat you alive — $150K–$250K per engineer, 12–18 months with zero revenue, $20K/month cloud bills, and a "free" startup that quietly costs a quarter million dollars a year. We'll open the cash register on SaaS subscriptions, recurring revenue, expansion revenue and negative churn — and then show you the leak that kills it all: 5% monthly churn means losing nearly HALF your customers every year.

We also go deep on the two numbers that murder more software companies than bad code ever will — CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost) and LTV:CAC — plus enterprise sales cycles, champions, pilots, and why your clean product turns into a monster. Then the real answer: distribution. Code is a commodity. Audience, brand and a sales machine are not. Finally, we break down exactly why Schneider Electric paid a 42% premium for PTC, what a switching-cost moat really is, the startup Valley of Death, the acqui-hire nobody tweets about, and why the founders who actually get rich are building boring software for dentists, plumbers, restaurants and factories.

By the end, you'll know whether YOUR software company would survive — or become one of the ten thousand.

Everyone talks about having a "growth mindset," but here's what most people miss: your mindset is only as big as the environment that shapes it. In this video, I share what I learned meeting Michael Phelps and Tia-Clair Toomey, driving around Miami, and spending time with high-performing friends in LA — and why the real gap between us wasn't talent, work ethic, or intelligence, but the environment we each operate in. I break down the difference between fixed and growth mindsets, why scarcity mindsets cause us to tear each other down, and why forcing yourself into environments of abundance is the real unlock for growth. If you feel like you're capable of more than your current results show, this one's for you.
