I want to help more people become entrepreneurs. That's why Im helping people get good jobs. I don't care what anyone says the biggest barrier to becoming a successful entrepreneur is a safety net. A lot of people don't have a saftey net but a good job can help you create one.

@dearestdiamonte His story is great. I think one of the crazier facts is he was doing $60M revenue per year before razing that money. So he really didn’t even need it and was already rich. Now he’s just going for HUGE. Good reminder that you can do it without investors if you want it enough.
