Quotes:
“So, I had all this money that was sitting in a bank account and I realized; I don’t know what to do with this. I didn’t even know what a Mutual Fund was at the time and I was 30 years old. So, I just starting learning and investigating.”
“So, automating it really just made things so much easier, streamlined everything, and now we don’t need to have anyone on-site except maybe a couple of times a week to make sure it’s clean and sweep out empty units.”
