How to Spot a Cash-Cow CEO
To Smart Investors,

TL;DR: The best investments aren’t about spreadsheets—they’re about people. Here’s how to spot a leader who’ll actually make you rich.
🧠 The Billion-Dollar Filter
Most Investors obsess over P/E ratios. The pros focus on one thing: psychology.
When a founder sells their company for life-changing money, one question decides if they’ll keep grinding: Do they love the business or the cash? 90% of long-term returns hinge on this answer.
💔 Red Flags Wall Street Misses
Watch their eyes when they talk about:
“Legacy” vs. “Liquidity” – Obsession with industry impact = golden. Dollar signs in every sentence = 🚩.
Pain points – Founders who bitch about supply chains (but light up solving them) = keepers. Those who check their stock price mid-convo = run.
Post-exit plans – “I’m buying a yacht” = trouble. “We’re expanding to Brazil” = 💎.
Real-world test: Ask them to describe their worst day at work. If they smile while ranting—buy every share you can.
🔥 The Contrarian Edge
The market underprices obsession. While hedge funds crunch data, you’re hunting for:
4am hustle – 73% of 10x stocks are run by CEOs who outwork their peers (Harvard Business Review).
Skin in the game – Founders who keep 10%+ equity post-sale outperform by 22% annually (Morningstar).
“Unretireables” – Leaders who could quit but won’t. Example: The 68-year-old HVAC CEO who still fixes boilers at midnight.
📉 When to Bail (Fast)
Sell immediately if you hear:
“Our board is laser-focused on shareholder value.”
Translation: They’re about to gut R&D for stock buybacks.
🚀 Your Playbook
Stalk their LinkedIn – 10+ years in the same niche? ✅
Listen for “we” vs. “I” – Team builders > narcissists.
Ignore the PR fluff – Demand to see their plant/facility/warehouse. Dirty hands = clean returns.
Bottom line: Great businesses are cults led by true believers. Find the CEO who’d do their job for free—and you’ve found the next NVDA.
May the LORD Bless You and Your Loved Ones,

P.S. 37% of my portfolio is in founders who still answer customer service emails. No AI bot could’ve predicted that. 💥
