When you’re talking total price and the seller’s talking price per acre… we’ve got a problem.

Are you trying to work it out or moving on?

We’re looking at a $35-$40 million oil deal in North Dakota.

Operationally, it looks like it could work, we’re already a bonded operator in the state, and the day-to-day work looks manageable for a small field crew.

Now we need to review the production forecasts, run the models, and see how the numbers change at different oil prices.

Then we can decide what we’re willing to pay.

What would you pay for this deal??

I got sober on May 20, 2007. I was 21, and my plan was to take a break for a year.

Almost 20 years later, I’ve built a life I’m really happy with.

What I’ve learned is that sobriety is about more than removing alcohol, it’s about finding different ways to deal with what’s going on emotionally and spiritually.

I found a way of life I want to keep, sobriety is good 👍

The seller’s ready to commit... Then comes the part about signing something with another buyer a few weeks ago.

Oh lord.

What would your next move be?

Having a good job felt like security. It was hard to let go of that.

Within three months of leaving my full-time job, I did a deal that showed me I could stand on my own two feet and provide for my family.

I already had experience in the business, I had relationships and I had skills people would pay for.

I was doing the same work I’d done as an employee, now working for myself.

That deal gave me the confidence to keep going. Everything I’ve built since then started with getting past that mental hurdle.

In 2020, the oil and gas industry was getting absolutely crushed.

COVID sent oil demand through the floor, crude prices went negative, and I found myself leaving a company with no salary and no real plan for what came next.

Looking back, it was probably the best thing that could have happened to me.
I was forced to bet on myself.

Just four weeks later, an old mentor called me about a mineral royalty deal in the DJ Basin. He had a seller who needed to exit, and I knew I could find a buyer.

So that's exactly what I did.

I connected the dots, brokered the transaction, and made nearly $1 MILLION on a single deal.

No drilling rigs. No operating wells. Just finding an opportunity and putting the right people together.

That deal helped launch my entrepreneurial journey and taught me something I've never forgotten:
You don't always need millions of dollars to make millions in the oil and gas business. You need to know how to find the right deals.

Most people quit before the deal that changes everything ever shows up.

At first, you’re questioning all of it.

Can I actually find a deal?
Can I find a buyer?
Is this even going to work?

Then you get the first one done.

Maybe you make $5,000. Maybe $10,000. Maybe it’s the deal that completely changes the way you think about what’s possible.

The people who win in this business usually aren’t the ones who got lucky once.

They’re the ones who stayed in the game long enough to be there when the right opportunity showed up.

That’s what “luck” really is.

Right place. Right time. Right skill set.

But none of that matters if you quit before the opportunity arrives.

Burnout is real.

But when you own the business, the work doesn’t disappear because you’re tired.

There are people depending on you. Employees. Clients. Partners. Your family.

And the reality is, nobody is ever going to care about your business as much as you do.

The same goes for “work-life balance.”

If you want to be exceptional at something, business, sports, anything, there are going to be seasons where your life is completely unbalanced.

That doesn’t mean you run yourself into the ground forever.

But I’ve never met anyone who became the best at what they do by giving everything equal priority.

Sometimes being great requires obsession.

Most people only see the finished videos.

This is where they actually get made.

We built this studio to create better content, have better conversations, and bring you more real-world education about mineral rights, oil & gas investing, and the energy industry.
Welcome to the new studio. We’ve got a lot coming.

The biggest mistake isn’t selling your mineral rights. It’s selling without knowing what they’re actually worth.

Every producing well comes with risk that’s completely outside your control. Commodity prices move. Operators can slow development, have mechanical issues, or even go bankrupt. For many owners, trading that uncertainty for a guaranteed lump sum is a smart financial decision.
The difference is knowing your value before you sign. A fair offer can help you reach your financial goals. A low-ball offer accepted out of confusion or pressure can cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars.

That’s why education always comes first.
