Best Advice I Ever Received:
From an old man in Denver that owned lots of free and clear apartments: To buy real estate and let other people pay if off. When free and clear it would equate to “buckets of money”
Best Advice I’d Give To Someone Who Wants To Build A $10m+ Business:
Create a business plan, do a SWOT analysis, learn everything you possibly could about that potential business and barriers to entry. Look for equity investors, execute on the plan and utilize the EOS system from the book Traction to run the business like a well-oiled machine.
