Is Your Business Worthless Without You? | Robert Young & Doug Cellini

from The 1% Podcast

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note. Is your business actually worth what you think it is? Many owners think their business is worth a lot of money - they often guess too high because of the love for their work. But in reality, if your business can’t run three months without you driving, it’s definitely worth less than you think. This week on The 1% Podcast, we covered: → Why cash flow, not investment returns, decides most people's financial outcome → The handshake buy sell agreement that can cost a family half a business → Why most business owners don't actually know what their company is worth → The habits we see over and over in multi millionaire clients → Whether you should pay off your mortgage before you retire A good business should be able to work well even when the owner is away. You should have an expert check the value every few years. That way, you know what someone will really pay for it.
