Sam breaks down Tiger 21, a peer group for people with $10M+ in investable assets. At ~850 members paying $30,000 a year, it pulls roughly $24M annually doing portfolio defenses and rich-people therapy.

I, I'm not a member, but, uh, I used a friend's login to check it out. And there's, uh, at least 850 members according to the— what I saw and according to their site. So what's that math? $24 million a year in revenue.”

A paid community is the fastest path to $10K/month side income
Shaan claims most listeners want a non-9-to-5 way to make $10,000 a month, and that a paid community is the single fastest path there. His math: $20/month times 500 members gets you to $10K/month.
“I would do a community if I was gonna— that would be my fastest path to that right now. And I'll tell you, you know, the reasons why are all the things you said, which is like, it's not that much work to run. The members provide the value to each other.
