The Home Service Expert Podcast · Mastering the Art of Franchising with Jeff Dudan · 25 Apr 2025 podcast

I mean, over time, it's just, you know, you couldn't afford to buy this stuff today for what we bought it over time. And, you know, it's the same thing for them. They need to be putting together these assets. But, like, people don't do it. And then what happens is, right, they have just enough to live. And all of a sudden, we go through an inflationary period. People are in their 50s and 60s.

They don't have the same earning potential or the energy. And next thing you know, like, my mom's still living, right? And she is tight. I mean, like one rotisserie chicken, three days. And she's got some money. And I told her, I said, please spend your money. I'll take care of you. You know, you don't have to worry about running. Your house is cash.

We bought her a house for cash when she moved to North Carolina three years ago. She's got money in the bank.

Let's see. She was born in 44.

I'll make it up to you.

And I'm prepared for it. All right. You're already a billionaire, just not today. But it's destined. The die's been cast. And you get your family going. By the way, you'll never regret. doing that. You'll never regret it. It's the greatest thing. That's my legacy. I hang my hat on that. We're three for three with our kids. And I'll never regret anything that I sacrificed for that.

So you're a billionaire. You got that going. Do you think you'll do the giving pledge? Because to your point, when people get billions and billions and billions of dollars, like 75% of these people, whether they're like Ryan Jumaville. You know Ryan?

OK, I need to introduce you to Ron Jumaville. I think he's—sorry, Ron. I think he's probably, I don't know, $4, $5, $6 billion. Or if they're the $100 billion people, they sign up, man. They say, I'm giving away 90 percent of this by the time I die. Because at the end of the day— I mean, how many hundreds of millions of dollars?

I think, was it the Rockefellers are the ones that kept their money the best?

And it's wrapped around a charitable trust. Right. So they're the ones, but at the end of the day, I have two different sets of trusts. They're both dynastic in nature. My daughter, who's in law school right now, at one time said, when do we get our money out? And I'm like, never. And she's like, well, why'd you do it for? And I'm like, I'm not sure.

But I want you to have enough to do something, but never enough to do nothing.

Yeah.

At the end of the day, I don't know why I made all this money. I mean, it's great, but, like, I don't have things. Like, I'm not a big fan.

It does, but also they – Sometimes they don't want to go. Because they really didn't go through what you went through to get it. So they're not going to get the same out of it that you do. That's true. But it's very noble. And I think that's why you're going to be a great dad is because you care so much about your employees. You have a massive heart for people.

I think that's one of the keys to your success. I mean, every time we talk, it's like my employees can be doing this for them. I'm doing that for them. I want these guys to, you know, not only go to Disney but do the Fast Pass. And, like, at the end of the day, man, it is a giver's gain. You can make money and still do right by people.

And I think if you do it the right way, you can even do better by taking people with you. And that's perfectly said.

They wouldn't leave. They wouldn't leave. Why would they?

Yeah, well, I used to say my LinkedIn, but, man, I got a company working in there now, and a lot of messages get gone. But should I get my email out on a show this big? I'm not sure.

Yeah.
