How to Legally Rig a Deal — Government Contracts, Warrants & Where to Put $100K Right Now | FOC

from Family Office Podcast: Billionaire & Centimillionaire Interviews & Investor Club Insights

Send us Fan MailThe most tactically dense episode of the panel. A former Air Force pilot who built the US military's AFWERX innovation program explains exactly how he structures deals around government contracts — using the Electra hybrid electric aircraft as a live example: $65M pre-money valuation, with a $30M Air Force contract not factored into the price. His fund put its check in escrow, the government signed, and the investment dropped in at an automatic discount because government revenue adds no dilution. Then: warrants, options, and capped valuations as tools to manufacture 80-95% discounts. Closes with the $100K question — four panelists answer where they would put their first $100K today: distressed assets and land, India pre-IPOs doubling every year, leveraged acquisitions of aging boomer businesses, and an AI-plus-electricians play that Richard says nobody is doing yet.About Family Office ClubThe world's largest investor club in the family office space. 19 years. 300+ events. 16 million members. $1B+ in community transactions.🔔 Subscribe for weekly content from our summits, panels, and investor interviews.🌐 FamilyOffices.com📩 Membership: FamilyOffices.com/joinhttps://familyoffices.com/
