Every entrepreneur loves the idea of “building something from scratch,” but it is the hardest, riskiest, least predictable path to ownership. In this episode, I break down the truth most people never tell you. Buying a business is smarter, safer, and faster than starting one. I will show you exactly how I bought Lot Cop with no millions in the bank by using seller financing and the same sales skills you already have. From day one cash flow to avoiding the chaos of guessing your way through a startup, I explain why high performers win faster when they acquire something proven instead of trying to build on bare dirt. If you’re serious about stepping into ownership, this is the clearest roadmap you’ll hear all year.
