"regular people like you and me" that have a father and brother running hundred or billion dollar funds. So simple!

[MarcelPhilips]

Great video. We all strive for financial independence and better life. It’s not difficult in achieving this through the right investment, living frugally, and budgeting. I’m glad I learned early in life to work hard for financial freedom

Sorry to burst everyone's bubble - but I know this space intimately, and unless you've got some rich friends or relatives, none of what this guy says in the is going to come to fruition. There is a laundry list of why it is challenging to get funding, regardless of how good or how much you believe in the deal. He also needs to stop using the word guarantee, whether it is an example or not. Offering any sort of guarantee and not coming through will land you in prison.

#1 Bring on management and/or board members with proven records. Use their track record before you have your own.

Not all income investments are created
equally. I've allocated my capital in a safe and sustainable way but still leave room for excitement for individual stocks, cryptos and new exciting opportunities!

Private equity (PE) refers to capital investment made into companies that are not publicly traded.

The shoe had my attention the whole time

Now I gotta find people in the three distinct circles and get going with the fund launch formula. You are amazing Bridger. Much appreciated

[flywithAC]

Natural for a lot of haters or doubters to come on here & judge some of the words that may have been thrown around in the video.

1) It isn't easy to create a 29 minute video explaining what PE is & how you can start a PE fund because PE funds are different depending on where you go, the jurisdiction/domicile of the fund, investor availability etc.

2) I have friends who graduated off the same MBA as me & went on to start PE funds in emerging markets - setup costs are low, they had a focus (ESG, Real Estate etc) and they had a list of investors they could reach out to thanks to networking (mainly) - they didn't have 60k or 100k to drop on the creation of a PE fund, it just happened because hard work put them where luck found them.


3) The underlying assumption in a lot of the comments below is that Bridger is speaking about PE funds in developed markets in specific which is a gross misconception because the PE market is only really saturated in your so called 1st world countries and/or developed markets. Set up a fund out of the Middle East, APAC or North Africa - you will get good coverage & have options.

forgot to mention: your videos are great, absolutely true and authentic. I am a mature whitebeard and am so happy to see young strong entrepreneurs.

Can’t stop looking at your shoe at the background

[mohamedyossry]

I watched this video 3months ago and right now i am typing to you from my company
Thnx bro …really life changing ❤️❤️❤️

[Itsdaniel_leo]

I want to start as this as an individual with a large social media following. All business minded influencers should be doing this

[wqqzsij]

Wow, I thought he was going to tell us to click a link. This is the greatest video ever. Amazing. Please keep up the great work, you’re changing the world

[toms]

This is so weird, I was just thinking to myself today “Hm, I wonder if there’s a such thing as a hedge fund for businesses instead of individuals?” And landed on this channel after an ad popped up for exactly that. And I live in Billings, Montana, the exact place he used for his example! He’s not just a fund manager he’s a mind reader!!!! 🙆🏻‍♂️

[MiikeFaber]

As we approach Thanksgiving, investors have a lot to be grateful for, given recent market moves. The rest of the year and the beginning of 2024 should be merry and bright as well. Despite the S&P 500 doing well. I have lost a large share of my $640k portfolio in the last 4 months . How do I turn this around?

[robertovalle]

I have an MBA degree with a concentration in Finance, I was an investment fund manager for the University 's fund and we NEVER ever heard of all this awesome info you're sharing. They don't teach you this in business school. Thanks for sharing!!

[KoonceLyfe]

None of my business classes discussed the reality of funding, growing, & scaling. This is solid info

[joelstatosky]

Cool thing about funds is if you are making money, that means everyone else is making money and that means everyone is happy.

[andrewb]

This is extremely informative, and is high-level thinking. This is the type of knowledge that you get from actually working and dealing with these types of models. I know a lot of extremely wealthy people that all run private equity and V.C firms but I didn't necessarily know the structure involved. To everyone watching: this guy is the real deal and knows what he is talking about, this isn't googled information.
