Quotables

“I think having that support for you back in the day and everyone all in on your corner, it’s amazing.”

“I’m a very blessed guy to have that kind of support. It’s incredible and it is only because of that, I think, that it worked because it was scary for me.”

“A lot of people don’t realize that when we started this, nobody had any money. It was me and two other people, Angela and Brandon, and Angela was working for free because we didn’t have any money to pay her.”

“We were literally broke. We did our first event on Marriott points, I got the room on Marriott points.”

“It was kind of a creative real estate deal. We just did it to start a business.”

“I didn’t even have a credit card because I didn’t need one, there was no reason for me to have one, then all of my money vanished overnight.”
