Over the last 5 years, Brian Luebben spent $889,000 on personal development across coaches, courses, masterminds, events, and agencies… and this episode breaks down exactly what happened because of it.

From putting a $5K mastermind on a credit card to building a multi-million dollar business, Brian shares the real ROI behind the investments that changed his life, along with the ones that completely flopped.

In this episode:

  • How one $5K event led to millions in revenue
  • Why Brian spent 45% of his income on self-development at one point
  • The mindset shift that helped him leave corporate America
  • The masterminds and coaches that produced the biggest ROI
  • The courses and agencies that were complete failures
  • How Action Academy was built from relationships and proximity
  • Why events became the highest ROI investment category

This is one of the most transparent breakdowns Brian has ever shared on money, mentorship, business growth, and investing in yourself.

If you’ve ever wondered whether masterminds, coaching, or personal development are actually worth it… this episode is for you.
