Most people think private equity is something that happens on Wall Street.It’s not. It happens with your money.In *Other People’s Money*, Timothy Cobb, Navy veteran, entrepreneur, and author of *Rebuilt* and *The Blue Collar MBA*, pulls back the curtain on an industry that quietly buys apartment complexes, shopping centers, and private companies across the country, often using the pensions and retirement savings of teachers, firefighters, nurses, and everyday working people.Drawing from his own experience sourcing, underwriting, and structuring deals on the acquisitions side, Cobb walks you through how private equity really works, from where the money comes from to who gets paid when a deal goes right and when it goes wrong. No jargon. No hype. Just the way the machine actually runs.Whether you’ve been offered a chance to invest in a private deal, you own a business and just got a call from a buyer, or you simply want to understand the headlines, this book was written for you.**In *Other People’s Money*, you’ll learn how to:**- Follow the money from pension funds and investors all the way to the deal.- Spot the fees that pay the sponsor whether you win or not.- Understand leverage, the capital stack, and who gets paid first.- Read a waterfall and know exactly what you take home.- Ask the right questions before you ever write a check or sign a letter of intent (LOI).Private equity isn’t good or evil. It’s a tool.And like any tool, what matters most is whose hands are holding it and whose money is on the line.This isn’t a book about getting rich. It’s a book about knowing who gets paid either way.©2026 Timothy Cobb (P)2026 Timothy Cobb
