Bankruptcy at age 30 - Failure isn't permanent - Gary Nealon, RTA Cabinet Store Bootstrapped

    • Technology

Gary Nealon went through bankruptcy at 30 years old after buying a business 1 year earlier. By many measures he’s your average guy who grew up in a lower-middle class family in America. By many other measures he’s quite far from average as he runs an 8 figure online cabinet sales business, a consulting business and more recently a social exploration and discovery wine app. I hope this episode gives you the confidence to take risks knowing that even if you hit rock bottom and file for bankruptcy at age 30, you can fight back and build a 10 million dollar plus business.
The takeaway from this episode is that you should take risks because they often lead to success and failure isn’t permanent.
