Years and years ago when someone said they made a good return from laundry.

Seriously keep an eye on the money. Hire people to do what you can’t.

A personal relationship with Jesus Christ
What is one problem you encountered as an entrepreneur, and how did you overcome it?
Thinking you know things when you really don’t.Realizing it then asking 100’s of questions of everyone. Read everything from both positions of whatever you are venturing on so you can understand there are truly two sides.
Tell us something unique about yourself.
I have two different colored eyes.
