If you can’t 10x your current strategy, like, if you can’t go from three rental houses to 30 houses, you’re not actually doing using a scalable strategy.
Bronson Hill
Bronson Hill, Founder and CEO of Bronson Equity – a firm dedicated to helping high-earning entrepreneurs move beyond simply “saving money” and instead build predictable, passive wealth through alternative investments. Bronson began his career in medical-device sales, working with surgeons and healthcare practices. Although financially successful, he realised that his income was tethered to his time and he yearned for true freedom. In 2006 he purchased his first rental home, earning about $400/month in cash flow after refinancing and the experience sparked his interest in real estate. His next move came when a family member, already active in multifamily real-estate syndications, challenged him to “do multifamily” instead of accumulating dozens of single houses. That shift in mindset led Bronson to launch a local meetup in the Los Angeles area and ultimately craft the model he uses today: forming investor networks, vetting operators, and giving busy entrepreneurs access to institutional-quality deals. Under Bronson’s leadership, Bronson Equity has raised tens of millions in alternative-investment capital, serves more than 300 business-owner investors (each with $2 M+ net worth), and controls a growing real-estate portfolio valued at hundreds of millions of dollars. He knows firsthand the frustration of being treated like “just another client” by traditional wealth managers and built his company to treat investors as partners, giving them peer-feedback, education, and deal access tailored to entrepreneurs. On top of running the firm, Bronson hosts the podcast Mailbox Money Show, where he interviews thought-leaders and investment professionals to explore lesser-known asset classes, tax-efficient structures, and strategies for building passive income streams. Beyond business, Bronson is a passionate traveller (over 48 countries visited), a singer-songwriter (over 100 songs composed), a fitness enthusiast and an advocate for ending modern-day human trafficking through his work with the Dressember Foundation. His guiding belief: building wealth isn’t just about accumulating money, but creating freedom so people can fulfil their purpose.

Burnout is one of the most common things that you’re going to experience
in the Silicon Valley. It’s almost, it’s regretfully, just like a badge of honor. I
don’t know how we change that, but I would love to change that.
