Dwayne Johnson’s journey toward success has been interesting. From being a wrestler to becoming a renowned personality in the Hollywood industry, Johnson has been through all. The Rock, during the pandemic, invested in a business and started his tequila brand named Teremana. He has always focused on the success the brand has had in comparison to other spirits in the alcoholic beverage sector and has always been pleased with how distinctive the brand is.

As the actor has an accumulated net worth of $800 Million, he is just $200M away from becoming a Billionaire. The 51-year actor has managed to make his tequila business a success by taking it to $3.5 Billion.

During an interview with CNBC, Johnson was asked to filp his brand and sell to a big spirit company for a good sum. The Rock replied, “There is no exit plan.”
He went on to explain, “I created Teremana to be a legacy brand, and I’m a long gamer, I’m in it for the long hall.”
Johnson has opted to maintain control over the destiny of his brand and make sure that its essential values are upheld by rejecting the hefty offer that would have made him a billionaire.
