Ever wonder why someone would pay over retail for a business?
Because it’s not about the sticker price — it’s about the cash flow.

In this video, I break down why starting a business from scratch is a broken model for most people…
And why buying a business (even at a premium) can actually be the smarter, faster, and cheaper path to wealth.

Here’s what I cover:

💰 Why I’ve been known to pay over asking price — and still get in with no money down
🧠 How seller psychology can unlock creative financing and long-term cash flow
🏗️ What “Annuity Deals” are — and how they solve the retirement crisis for sellers
📉 Why boomers are ready to sell (and why they need someone like you)
🏎️ How I compare buying a business to buying a Tesla (yes, really)

If you’re still thinking about starting a business from scratch… you might be wasting time, money, and a decade of your life.
