  • Summary

  • You get laid off… then win a million bucks. What do you do? If you’re Gen X, you quietly pay off your mortgage, maybe upgrade your grill, and go back to work like nothing happened. In this episode, Josh and Bret unpack the story of the guy that won the money on Beast Games and what he is doing with the money now—they dive into how Gen X handles sudden wealth vs. how Millennials and Gen Z might throw a TikTok party about it.

    Would we splurge? Disappear? Tell no one? We both agreed, we'd keep it low key...but there would be signs.

    Also on the docket: Why are people destroying Teslas? Has content officially replaced common sense?

    So how do we evolve education and mentorship for a world where fortunes rise and fall overnight—and your biggest life lesson might come from a layoff and a lottery ticket?
