John Cerasani currently splits time between Los Angeles and Chicago, and has been featured on FOX, NBC, WGN, and CBS.  John recently sold an insurance business that he started from his kitchen table to a large private equity backed player.   This put him in a position to retire at the age of 42.  A few months later, he started Glencrest Global.   Glencrest Global has quickly earned a name for itself as one of the premier early-stage venture capital firms in the United States and is currently in more than 30 deals.  During this time, John has become business partners with some high profile founders, including:  Aaron Rodgers, Kevin Garnett, Ashley Greene, and Jaleel White.  Additionally, he is part of some very recognizable acquisitions and developments including apartment complexes in Los Angeles and Minneapolis, as well as The Vea Hotel (formerly the Newport Beach Marriott). John sits on multiple boards for non-profits and focuses much of his philanthropic efforts toward making higher education available to underserved communities.  He also serves and has served as a Trustee for universities in both Indiana and South Carolina.   In this episode, Brad and John discuss how to create your business and invest in others to create sustainable wealth for yourself and your future.   Check out more about John here: Website: https://www.GlencrestGlobal.com  for VC firm | https://www.2000PercentRaise.com  for Book & Podcast Watch the full video episode on Brad’s Rumble here: https://rumble.com/c/c-2544182
