Quotables

“What we’re in is a marathon and not a sprint, so take a long view. I’m making investment decisions today for great grandchildren 50 years from now that I’ll never know.”

“Don’t stop at the headline, read the copy. Right now, what you’re dealing with is “the market is crashing” and so forth – the market’s not crashing, it’s correcting, but if you stop at the headline, you’ll be riddled with fear.”

“If you think you’re gonna keep one house this year, keep two. If you think you’re gonna keep one this month, keep two. If you think you’re gonna keep five this quarter, keep six.”

“Here’s the thing that I learned – when you talk about 10x-ing, that first 10x is the hardest.”

“I’ve watched small entrepreneurs wash out day after day because they didn’t have a solid business plan that’s gonna make them money.”

“Being an entrepreneur is not for the faint of heart. Work hard, it’ll get you through every short fall that you’ve got.”
