Welcome to the ultimate analysis of the legendary Alex Hormozi for 2024.
I’ve spent thousands of hours watching successful business educators on YouTube, including numerous podcasts where Alex has been the guest. His story really inspires me!
The goal of these profiles is to show you the different ways people have built 6 and 7-figure businesses online, so you can see what it takes to find your own success, starting today.
Alex Hormozi At A Glance
💡Full Name and Age
Alex Hormozi is 35 years old.
🤑 Net Worth
YouTubers are often quietly wealthy, mainly to appear relatable to their young audience.
As of 2024, Alex Hormozi has a net worth of $17 million (previously $15m) while his holding company, Acquired.com, has a valuation of $100m+
As it’s VC-backed, Alex doesn’t own the entire business.

He makes the bulk of his money from his physical businesses, but he also makes money from book sales, YouTube revenue and the occasional sponsorship.
🌍 Location
Alex lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, which is where Acquisition.com LLC is also based.
✌️Common Praise
Herovides everything for free, apart from his 99c book
❌ Notable Complaints
His YouTube videos often have clickbait titles.
🚀 The X-Factor
A genuine business owner who’s gone through some hard times but hustles every single day.
😲 Did You Know?
Alex paid $350,000 + fees to purchase Acquisition.com as it wasn’t available and he really wanted the single-word domain name. This has made it one of the biggest domain acquitions of the last 10 years.
📈 Creator Trends
Alex Hormozi continues to blow up on social media, with many tuning each week (including myself) for his latest videos.
🕵🏻♂️ Private Life
Alex Hormozi is married to Leila Hormozi and they have been together for a few years. They do not have any children at this stage and aren’t planning to do so.
She helps out a ton in the business while they keep a lean team of staff and assistants.
👨🏻💻 My Verdict
One of the few people on YouTube teaching individuals how to build real businesses that scale.
About Me
I’m Joshua Smith from Australia. I have been building profitable content sites since 2011.
Today, in addition to managing my own portfolio, I actively help others on their journey.
How much does Alex Hormozi make and how?
Alex Hormozi makes $170,000 per month today which combines his M&A company + consulting + YouTube revenue.
While Alex claims that he won’t sell you anything, he does make a small fortune from his YouTube channel.
Ali Abdaal interviewed Alex recently:
To save you 90 minutes, during that interview, Alex claimed that he makes:
➜ $1 per subscriber per year, so he makes around $500,000 per year off YouTube ads
➜ $60,000 per month from his book sales, despite the fact that the book is just 99 cents
However, Alex makes the bulk of his money from his current businesses. He recently sold his SaaS business for 8-figures. He also offers some consulting where he charges around $2,000 per hour.
Creator Praise
Alex Hormozi’s audience really praises him for:
➜ Not selling anything, although he kinda does (a book costing less than $1…lol)
➜ Being a true hustler but remaining calm and collected within this volatile market
➜ Producing quality content that educates but also provides some humor
➜ Calling out the old rules that no longer serve the current generation
And despite having a net worth of $17m, he’s still grinding each and every day.
Creator Red Flags
I spent 2.5 hours searching for red flags and controversy surrounding Alex Hormozi, and my search only ended in mindless trolls seeking to tear down his success. He does have some clickbait YouTube titles but that’s it.
I guess he can’t please everyone…
At the end of the day, he’s making money with real online businesses, not course sales.
The X Factor
The unique qualities of Alex Hormozi include:
➜ He’s jacked AF but is also successful
➜ His wife is super supportive of his mission
➜ He’ll push forward despite the challenges
➜ He isn’t a guru and does NOT sell a course
He also prefers to make the bulk of his income through building real businesses.
My Verdict
Ultimately, I’ve learned a ton from watching Alex’s videos on Youtube.
My key takeaways include:
➜ Start building your business today
➜ Be willing to do the hard things
➜ The best time to start was yesterday
➜ Don’t get distracted by shiny objects
And of course, find a wife that’ll support you and work with a mentor who has been down your pathway before. I’d love to help you too.
