How I build my wealth by Michael Masterson

Descriptions

 

I have had a great career one that has made me happy and my family wealthy.

My success has come from being in the trenches from working nonstop for almost 40 years from starting and growing more than 50 businesses from selling more than half a billion dollars worth of goods from negotiating tough deals and firing nice people and closing businesses I loved and pushing myself to exhaustion.

Of course, there have been bumps in the road. Failed ventures. Near bankruptcies, lawsuits, friendships gone sour. My career is a very patchy quilt of triumphs and botched efforts, clever moves and faux pas, smart planning and dumb miscalculations.

The point is, I’ve been there, I’ve done it, and not just once, over and over again.

In other words, the advice I am about to give you comes from personal experience. If I suggest that you do something, it’s because I have done it myself or have failed to do it and I know the difference.
