Breaking The Bank: How Tan Built A $50M DeFi Business By 30

The corner office isn’t freedom if your time isn’t yours. Tan Gera, CFA walked away from a hard-won M&A career and built a $50M company by 30 by doing what most won’t: buying back time, moving fast, and letting asymmetric bets do the heavy lifting. We unpack the real pivot—from long hours and “Chinese wall” myths to a life designed around speed, systems, and sovereignty.

You’ll hear how Tan validated businesses the scrappy way—drop shipping to test demand before touching inventory—and why building while employed beats romantic quitting. He breaks down a practical crypto playbook: map allocation to risk so you know what to buy and how much, put core assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum to work in DeFi liquidity pools for steady yield, then channel those profits into deeply researched small caps where two winners can change the math. It’s a risk-managed approach to 100x potential, funded by gains, not principal.

We also get into the levers that make this more than theory: delegating low-value tasks, using AI to compress 12-hour days into four, and treating attention like capital. Tan’s health systems—sleep, sunlight, clean meals, meditation, breath work, and a 3:30 p.m. gym routine—anchor consistency. His lens on opportunity cost reframes delay as a monthly loss against your ideal life, injecting urgency without burnout. Along the way, we explore minimalism over material flex, renting for freedom, and philanthropy that ranges from daily kindness to building schools.

If you want financial sovereignty without waiting for permission, this conversation gives you a blueprint: active income first, allocation by risk, yield on core, upside with house money, and relentless speed over perfection. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a review telling us the one task you’ll delegate this week.
