Dropping Bombs

Dan Peña's QLA EXPOSED By Student

19 Nov 2025

Description

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ In this episode of Dropping Bombs, Christian Dawes brings a raw masterclass on leverage, grit, and buying businesses. Christian is living proof that Dan Peña's QLA methodology works—even if you're starting from rock bottom. Kicked out of seven schools and raising four kids, he bought his first company for $2.4M with 110% financing and lined up two more, pushing toward $10.5M in acquisitions. Inside: use other people's money, build a credible board, and chase deals where the math wins—not your ego. Expect ruthless filters and volume: call hundreds of owners, walk in, and ask to buy the business. High margins buy forgiveness; low margins kill you. If the numbers fail, bin it and move on. This is a field manual for average men who refuse average outcomes—watch now, take the first swing, and become relentlessly capable.
