Jackie breaks down exclusive data from 127 millionaire founders inside Hampton, revealing how motivation, money management, and mindset evolve as net worth grows, from $1M to over $100M.

Here’s what we talk about:

Why financial security stops being a motivator after $50M—and what takes its place
The "F*** You" number: What real numbers show is the threshold for total financial freedom
Wealth allocation shifts: Crypto disappears, bonds and real estate dominate at the ultra-high end
Surprising insights into monthly cash burn, and how spending changes (or doesn’t) across net worth tiers
Take-home income jumps dramatically past $50M—especially at the $100M+ level
Time vs. money: Wealthier founders are working fewer hours, but that doesn’t guarantee happiness
What motivates founders at every stage—and why some feel lost after hitting their big number
Real quotes from founders like Brian Johnson and Alex Peykoff on why they build, invest, and spend the way they do

$50M is when founders stop caring about money entirely. Want to see what other millionaire money secrets we uncovered in the full report? https://www.joinhampton.com/wealth-report
