Have you ever wondered why some people can walk away from a comfortable career and bet everything on themselves? In this episode, Cory and Ryan sit down with former Rutgers football player and Wall Street trader turned real estate entrepreneur, Peter Tverdov, to unpack how an athlete mindset can completely change the way you approach money, work, and risk. Pete shares how growing up obsessed with football, grinding through division one practices, and then entering a rigid corporate environment showed him he was never wired for a safe nine to five. He walks through the moment he realized he would rather be unemployed than spend another year ignoring his potential, and how he used that same obsessive energy to quietly build a management and construction company that now oversees around one hundred million dollars of real estate in New Jersey. You will hear how property management became his real world classroom, why he believes most people are naturally meant to eat what they kill, and how living far below his means gave him the runway to take real swings. Pete also opens up about bringing his younger brother into the business, building systems so he could step out of day to day headaches, and designing a life where he can take vacations, drop his kids at school, and still play the long game in business. If you are an ex athlete, a high performer stuck in a corporate role, or someone who feels that unexplained pull toward something bigger, this conversation will show you what it actually looks like to bet on yourself and build a life you own.
