Chasing a 9 Figure Net-Worth.
Let’s get one thing straight—I’m not chasing a 9-figure net worth for the flash. I’m chasing it because I want freedom. Freedom to provide my family with unforgettable experiences. Freedom to live how I want, where I want. Freedom to serve others from a place of abundance.
I’m a dad to two beautiful girls, a husband, a Montana outdoorsman, and a real estate agent who grinds every day—not just to close deals, but to build something that lasts generations.
So what does chasing 9 figures look like when you’re balancing diapers, cold plunges, early runs, elk season, and escrows?
1. Where I Come From
I grew up middle class. We didn’t have much, but we never went without the essentials. That said, I always knew money was a stressor. I heard the tension in the conversations. I saw the sacrifices. And even as a kid, I knew I didn’t want my future family to carry that same weight.
I want my girls to experience life without monetary worry. I want to take them on epic trips, give them memories they’ll never forget, and eventually pass down something that matters—something of real value.
And I want to show them it’s possible.
To be honest, I didn’t always think like this. I used to carry an entitled, victim mindset when it came to wealth. I thought rich people must have screwed someone over, or cheated, or been greedy to get what they had.
That was my blue-collar conditioning giving me a way out—an excuse for why my family wasn’t wealthy. It was easier to assume they were bad than to take full accountability.
Now I know better. I know success doesn’t come from shortcuts—it comes from systems, discipline, risk, and massive action.
I’m also putting this out into the world now because I want to manifest it. I’m done hiding big goals for fear of judgment. Anything worth doing will come with scrutiny and naysayers. Let them talk.
2. Daily Habits That Stack
You don’t stumble into 9 figures. You build it brick by brick, day by day.
5:30 AM wake-ups – Beat the sun, beat your excuses.
Cold plunges – Train the mind to choose hard over comfort.
Running + Lifting – A strong body builds a strong business.
Reading – Constant learning from people who’ve done what I want to do.
Content Creation – Putting myself out there daily to grow trust and visibility.
Success isn’t a secret. It’s a system.
3. High-Value Networking
Every week, I sit down with someone who’s built serious wealth—whether through real estate, business, or other ventures. I don’t go to these meetings to pitch. I go to learn. What they did. What they regret. What moves they’d make again.
These lunches are like mini-MBAs.
And soon, I’ll be turning those convos into episodes for my podcast “Move with Matt”—because if it’s helping me grow, I know it’ll help others too.
4. Becoming the Go-To for Generational Properties
Montana’s land is special. I’m on a mission to become the guy for high-value ranches, estates, and recreational properties. Not just to sell them, but to tell their story.
Think: cinematic content, detailed breakdowns, and white-glove service for buyers and sellers who want more than a handshake—they want trust.
It’s about curating the kind of listings that make people stop scrolling and start dreaming.
5. Family First, Always
Chasing 9 figures means nothing if I miss the moments that matter most—early-morning giggles, evening walks, or watching my wife take down a deer with a better shot than mine (again).
This journey doesn’t come at the cost of family. It’s for them.
I’m not just building wealth—I’m building a life I don’t want to escape from.
Final Thoughts
I’m not perfect. I’m not the richest guy in the room (yet). But I’m committed. I show up. I keep the promises I make to myself.
And one day, when I look back at the road I walked—barefoot, uphill, in the snow—I want to know I earned every inch of it.
If you’re chasing something big too—whether it’s your first property, a mindset shift, or your own version of freedom—just know you’re not alone.
Let’s build something massive. Let’s move.
