I'm buying great
businesses to hold
for the long haul.

Every one. Deloitte, Scripts Rx, SSA — all three of them, in order, politely or otherwise, asked me to leave. For a long time I thought that meant something was wrong with me.

Turns out it meant I was supposed to be doing this.

I come from a long line of entrepreneurs — the kind of family where every Thanksgiving conversation eventually loops back to whose business is hiring, whose business is selling, and what the bank said this week. Working for someone else was always going to be a placeholder. The corporate jobs taught me the playbook. Getting fired from them taught me I should be writing my own.

So I bought a company. Then another. Then two more. I'm not bouncing into this as a side project or a second act. This is what I'm built for, and I plan to keep doing it for the next thirty years.
