In an exclusive interview, Emil Barr, a 22-year-old entrepreneur from Ohio, shared the extreme measures he took to achieve a net worth of $25 million. Barr, who founded his first company in college, revealed that he sacrificed sleep and friendships to focus on his business. He averaged just three-and-a-half hours of sleep per night, skipped classes, and gained 80 pounds due to outsourcing non-essential tasks. Barr, who holds an MBA from Stanford University, believes that maintaining a work-life balance can lead to mediocrity. He argues that aspiring entrepreneurs should be willing to put in the long hours required to achieve success. Barr's career has been marked by rapid growth and high-profile roles. After starting his own business, Step Up Social, he worked as an advisor at the Department of Government Efficiency and later as a partner at Candid. He co-founded Flashpass in 2024. Barr's current work routine is just as demanding. He typically works 100-hour weeks, with minimal breaks, and spends time with family and friends between 6 pm and 9 pm. His schedule is a testament to the sacrifices he made to achieve his current success.
