  <title>How I Raised Twenty Million to Take Control of a Fifty Million Dollar Company</title>
  <description>Tom and I talk about the moment I turned down a multimillion dollar cash-out offer and instead decided to raise twenty million dollars and buy control of Somewhere.com. I walk through how that deal came together, how I borrowed nine million from the founder, structured the investor tranches, and rebuilt the leadership team while still running Bolt Storage and RE Cost Seg. We get into why I believed the company could become a publicly traded business and how my media brand helped me raise over forty million for storage, somewhere and other deals. I also explain how I split my time across multiple companies, why I spend 350k a year on my personal media team, and how building a brand on X completely accelerated my career. This episode is about unreasonable ambition, calculated risk and making moves even when nobody gives you permission.
