In this episode, Jay Hill sits down with Chris Simon, a Baltimore-born entrepreneur and operator, to talk about what most motivated people never get taught: the rules of the game.
This isn’t about hype.
It’s not about quick money or shortcuts.
It’s about structure, exposure, relationships, and learning how to think like an owner — especially when you come from environments where hustle is praised but systems are never explained.
Chris breaks down how he went from creative hustles to building real businesses by learning:
how money actually flows
how to separate hustle from structure
how to build institutions instead of just personal brands
how to navigate grief, family, and responsibility while still growing
how exposure, relationships, and discipline changed his trajectory
This episode speaks directly to men who:
already believe in entrepreneurship
feel mentally cluttered or directionless
are tired of restarting every few years
come from inner-city environments like Baltimore, Atlanta, Houston, or NYC
want to build something that lasts
This is a reset conversation.
