The best thing about this series, is that it’s doesn’t seem produced or rushed, was totally done with time and care, even if it seems nonchalantly… keep them coming
@HoldmyAk9 ай бұрын
Agreed, finishing this episode and like really finding out a lot of events that happened. It’s crazy, I doubt Alex or the crew will see this, holy he mentioned it was left to a 18 & 19 year old. I wonder what would’ve happened in the coming months/year had you offered a little lower. Considering they were teenagers, they may have even taken lower offer

I’ve known Alex and his family for over 30+ years. He used to tune RC cars growing up and has always had a special love for cars. However, his best quality is his huge heart. Love you Alex, proud of you G.

@jeremyclutterbuck466510 ай бұрын
Not always. My dad helped me start my business, I payed him a full time wage to be a project manager, while paying his wife $1000 a month to do the books. After three years in business he was trying to get me to borrow money from the equity in my home to keep the business going. When I refused he quit. I replaced him from the cab of my truck while working on tools. I hired an accountant for 1/3 of what my step mother was charging. Instantly turned the business profitable. 10 years strong now.
