070: The Optometrist Who Made a Multimillion Dollar Exit with Dr. Tony Jacob

The Lifestyle Investor - Investing, Passive Income, Wealth

In today’s conversation, I’m speaking with Dr. Tony Jacob. Tony is a doctor, entrepreneur, investor, and the former owner of a multi-million dollar optometry practice—which he built from the ground up.

Realizing the upside to owning a business, Tony made the leap from doctor to entrepreneur in 2010 and hit an impressive $1M in sales within the first 18 months of launching his company.

By the end of 2021, Tony had opened 11 different locations and increased revenue by 7X in the last 4 years of operation. He decided it was time to roll things up and sell. Last month, his company was officially acquired, making it the largest private sale in the state of Texas for an optometry business.

Despite having no background or previous experience building a company, Tony figured it out through hard work and persistence. He made mistakes, learned from them, and kept pushing forward—strong values which were instilled by his parents.

In this episode, you’ll hear all about Tony’s entrepreneurial journey and the steps he took to start, scale, and sell his optometry business. We talk about making connections, how to hire and grow your team, investing in cryptocurrency, and the power of earning enough passive income to live life on your terms.
