20 years ago, i built an f&b business that grew into a chain of 30 restaurants across multiple countries.
year after year, revenue and profits kept growing. by 2014, the business was valued at $20m, and an f&b company approached me with an acquisition offer.
i sold every share i owned.
at the time, many people thought i left too early. my two partners stayed behind because they believed the business could grow much bigger.
a few years later, the market changed.
the business failed to adapt, nearly 80% of the restaurants were shut down, and by 2019 the brand disappeared completely. my former partners walked away with almost nothing.
that experience taught me a lesson i’ve never forgotten:
you don’t have to walk every road to the very end.
there’s nothing wrong with leaving money on the table if you’ve already made enough.
that’s exactly why i took profit on $syn.
could it still go another 50%? absolutely.
but i don’t need the last dollar. i’m happy locking in 30% and waiting for the next opportunity.
survival builds wealth. greed destroys it.
