Now, the bad news: Filings rose 15% compared to a year ago, and the number of people who actually had their homes repossessed jumped 31% to 87,648.

In other words, I’m building a business from scratch.
As an entrepreneur, you know, business start-ups are always, always difficult and challenging. And it starts the first day you start taking orders, creating marketing or deal with customers. The other thing you realize right away is everything you learned in school is completely useless.

So, even though I will be leaving out some details everything in this message will be fundamentally true.
