117. The 'Safe' Way to Financially Retire Early By 40 (FIRE)｜Emmet Peppers

Emmet Peppers is the founder of Good Soil Investment Management
LLC (“Good Soil”) on the principle that an asset management
company can benefit both its investors and society and Good Soil
is the General Partner of Accelerated. 


Prior to founding Good Soil Investment Management, Emmet worked
at Interactive Brokers, where he helped grow the Prime Brokerage
and RIA businesses. He joined the company in 2006 in Client
Services, then moved into institutional sales in 2010, becoming
the firm’s #1 US sales rep by 2019 as he brought on and serviced
some of the firm’s biggest institutional clients. Investing his
own funds while working for Interactive Brokers, Emmet developed
the investment philosophy which would become the foundation for
Accelerated Opportunities. In a variety of transformational
opportunities he had identified over the years, and using
exchange-traded options to accelerate the performance of his
portfolio, Emmet translated an initial investment of
approximately $30,000 into well over $30 million.
