Motivational

The behind the curtains look on due diligence, trial and error. As someone who thinks like he does. I wanna flesh out as many possible scenarios and do it for the lowest price. Its nice to have his perspective. And a nice voice without much “umm”s and “like”s. I think he could have quite the revenue stream from the pod cast.
