He pastored for 30 years, then sold his company in a ~$500M deal — and gave away $1.5M the same week.
Also, this podcast is made by Hampton, which is a community for founders doing on average $20 million a year in revenue. We saw a lot of these money conversations happening privately behind closed doors and we thought, "What the heck, let's make it public." If you are a founder, apply here: http://joinhampton.com/mw
Dean Sweetman spent 30 years as a pastor before founding Tithe.ly at 51 — a giving platform for churches that Excel KKR acquired in a deal in the hundreds of millions. The same week the wire hit, he moved $1.5 million into a donor-advised fund he can never take back. Today he's worth $30–50M, gives away 10–15% of it every year, and still budgets like he did when he ended each week with $150 to spare.
This episode covers the anatomy of his exit — upfront cash, rolled equity, earn-outs — and where every dollar sits now: 95% liquid, 50% indexed, 5% of net worth in debt. Plus the $10,000 tips he leaves strangers in airports, why he calls himself a "biblical capitalist," the dollar amount where he stopped thinking about money, and what he plans to do with all of it when he's gone.
