From Cheesecake Factory to Capital Gains: The Grit-Backed Rise of Brett Swarts
Manage episode 481157276 series 3613974
What do side hustles, faith, and a $5,000 loan from your dad have to do with multimillion-dollar exits? EVERYTHING—if you’re Brett Swarts. In this powerful episode, Marley sits down with the capital gains guru himself to unpack the real, unfiltered journey behind his success.
Inside the episode:
- What really happened when the 2008 crash hit—and how Brett survived with a newborn and zero cash
- The secret shift from waiting tables to winning listings (and why he hid his Cheesecake Factory job)
- Why the 1031 exchange might be screwing you over—and what to do instead
- The gut-punch moment that nearly broke him (and what kept him going anyway)
- How the Deferred Sales Trust flips the script on taxes, timing, and entrepreneurial freedom
This episode is part masterclass, part survival story—and all heart. If you’ve ever hustled in silence, doubted the path, or needed a real-world example of grit in action, Brett’s story will light a fire under you.
No fluff. No silver spoons. Just strategy, scars, and a whole lot of smarts.
