A few things I've done
Life is more interesting outside one lane.
Give back
Donated a kidney to a stranger.
I did it in honor of Sam, the young organ donor whose lungs saved my daughter's life.
Go farther
Went from 260 pounds to endurance races.
I rebuilt my health, then went from the couch to marathons and beyond.
Think long-term
Bought a 231-acre Texas ranch.
A big family bet on land, experiences, and building something that lasts.
Make the ask
Started a business with John McAfee.
We built it fast—reaching a $30 million market cap in six months.
Find a way
Put Buc-ee's products online.
A $3,000 shopping trip became an unofficial partnership to sell its products online.
Stay hands-on
Built a multi-business holding company.
The real version involves borrowed trucks, emergency box runs, and doing whatever the businesses need.
