How Jack Oujo Built an $800M Business by Planning for Failure | E5
Q: What moment after the release from baseball motivated you to pursue wealth management, and how did you plan the transition?
I chose to respond with action rather than regret, created a long-term education plan with my wife, and pursued certifications and licenses while keeping an eye on the end goal of helping clients with careful financial planning.
Sam Acho: How to Win In Business Without Losing Everything | E2
Q: How did your NFL experience shape your approach to NIL guidance and advising young athletes today?
The negotiation experience, understanding contracts, and the need for ethical guidance inform a compassionate, principled approach to NIL, keeping athletes' long-term interests at the center.
Sam Acho: How to Win In Business Without Losing Everything | E2
Q: What is the single most important lesson from your athletic career that translates into building a successful business?
The lesson is that little things done well build big things over time; mastering small habits and consistently executing them unlocks larger successes in business as in sports.

Q: What was the hardest business decision you had to make, and did your athletic background help you handle it?
