Brian Aquart sits down with Billy Keels. Billy left his high-salary corporate sales job to embark on a path of entrepreneurship and shares his journey from the grind of sales to creating financial independence and becoming invested in real assets through his company, First Generation Capital Partners.
Billy shares a pivotal moment from 2012, a missed birthday celebration of his son, due to a business meeting, that prompted him to reassess his priorities, leading to a conclusion that work should no longer withhold him from cherished personal moments. This awakening, coupled with his father’s illness and the restraints of the COVID-19 pandemic, compelled him to consider an entrepreneurial path that would allow him to regain control over his time and family life.
Billy enlightens listeners about the difficult transition to entrepreneurship from the safety net of a corporate job, a journey dotted with overwhelming challenges. However, he asserts that the skills and knowledge acquired in his corporate roles fortified his ability to navigate these challenges, setting his entrepreneurial ship afloat on what he describes as rough, yet invigorate waters.
Now, as the founder of First Generation Capital Partners, Billy actively encourages and assists first-generation accredited investors to optimize their options in life through tangible assets. Exploring traditional investments is not only a financial endeavor, but also an enriching journey of learning about saving and investment.
Billy extends his insights through his popular podcast “Going Long” which boasts over 280 informative episodes. He is intent on sharing valuable asset knowledge with an audience attracted by opportunities outside of Wall Street. Additionally, he highlights the gravity of high earners understanding and actively managing their portfolios, factoring the impact of taxes on their incomes, and seeking alternative investments to keep more money in their pockets.
Billy’s story is a beacon for those standing at the edge of their comfort zones, contemplating a leap into the world of entrepreneurship.
Don’t miss your opportunity to seize your moment and create the life you’ve always dreamed of.
Enjoy!
