    Oh that’s interesting. Not sure how that didn’t show up in my search. I had to log in to my ancient LinkedIn account to read it, but I’m glad I did, because…

    I really like starting businesses. You might say I am obsessed (or is it possessed? ) by this activity. I love helping others start businesses. I am a member of the Entrepreneurs Organization of Fort Worth, and I highly recommend this worldwide organization for any entrepreneur.

    In college majored in Wildlife Management, and soon discovered that the life of starting businesses was more fun than going to school. Some of the businesses that I started include gas stations, lobster trapping, a chain of nightclubs and bars, selling bait, a beef jerky plant, a dating service, credit card processing center, condom machine routes, and selling pool cues. Then about 1990 I met up with an amazing set of leaders that have made some of my ideas into very long lasting businesses. Together our team has done billions of phone calls, texts and and done a lot of political polling, nonprofit These all made at least some money except the lobster trapping…I never caught one lobster. I may go back to Hawaii and try that again, it still bothers me :-)

    Thank you.

    Edit: I should have hilighted this part too, because again, SKETCHY AS FUCK.
