In this special episode share, Adam Koós, joins Gary Heldt as a guest on the Grow Your Business and Grow Your Wealth Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation on fiduciary responsibility, business exit planning, and the hidden risks business owners face when they wait too long to plan. Adam shares his personal journey from pre-med to finance, why he launched Libertas at age 25, and how his mission evolved into helping business owners protect and eventually monetize their life's work. Together, Gary and Adam explore why 80% of business owners' net worth is tied to their company — yet 80% of businesses never sell, dissolving instead. This episode offers a candid, educational look at the realities of exit planning, advisor incentives, and what business owners should be thinking about years before a sale — straight from a conversation where Adam is on the other side of the mic.
