I spent over one million dollars last year; and it’s not a metaphor.

I actually took one million dollars from accounts, and moved it to other accounts, or paid it via credit cards, or whatever…

And the first thing I should clarify is that I’m not a millionaire by any means.

My girlfriend and I rent this two-bedroom apartment in the heart of San Jose, nobody in my family has ever had a million dollars, and my scratch map is only barely touched.


I should also clarify, this is my money as much as it’s not my money. I’m telling you how the company I co-founded in 2014, Slidebean, spent a million dollars last year.

So I’m the CEO of that company, I get to decide how to spend the money, but it’s not money of my own.

So if you were expecting one of those ‘Hey I have a Million Dollars and I’m going to waste it all in one day’… no, this is not one of those videos.

But if you’re like me, and before last year had never had a million dollars of your own, I think you’ll find some curious insights on how fast that money goes… sadly.

And if you’re a business manager or an entrepreneur, I think you’ll also find some good insights on how a company our size decides to spend their money.

Those are really all of Slidebean’s expenses for 2018.

I hope that this video sparked your curiosity about how a business spends its money. I hope that you found some useful insights here…

These $1MM expenses, I never saw them, I never held them in my hand… they were just numbers on a screen.

But it’s been really fun to make this video, hope you enjoyed it as well.
