1. 0:00expertise.
2. 0:01Uh worked in the beer industry and had a
3. 0:02brewery fail. Now see no path forward in
4. 0:05the industry for my financial goals. How
5. 0:07do I pick
6. 0:08another
7. 0:09uh goal
8. 0:11that I've less passion interest in?
9. 0:14You know,
10. 0:15that's an interesting question. Um
11. 0:20I'm going to give you I'm going to give
12. 0:21you
13. 0:23I'm going to give you advice that I
14. 0:23probably wouldn't normally say, just
15. 0:25because of the nature of what you said.
16. 0:27If you really love the the brewing
17. 0:30business,
18. 0:31then it might make sense for you to
19. 0:33actually go to a more successful brewery
20. 0:35for a while
21. 0:36and try to learn, maybe from a smaller
22. 0:38brewery that's like fast growing and
23. 0:40doing well. Try to learn from them so
24. 0:42that you can take another shot at it,
25. 0:43cuz like
26. 0:45you're not going to die, right? Like
27. 0:47maybe you make a little bit less for a
28. 0:48period, but you're going to be trading
29. 0:51earning for learning. And if you want to
30. 0:53stay in this industry, I'm a big
31. 0:55advocate of like if that like it's so
32. 0:57rare to find something you actually
33. 0:58like, like for real. So like kudos to
34. 1:00you for actually finding something you
35. 1:01like. Um that learning the skills of
36. 1:03business around it, I think is much more
37. 1:06basic to do than falling in love with
38. 1:08something. And so I would go and get the
39. 1:13business skills ideally from somebody
40. 1:16who's in that space who's doing well and
41. 1:18then be able to learn over a couple of
42. 1:19years and then go out and do my own
43. 1:21thing. We have a ton of entrepreneurs
44. 1:22who work at acquisition.com who had past
45. 1:24very large companies
46. 1:25um and they're here cuz they want to
47. 1:27learn. So I don't think that's a bad
48. 1:28thing and as long as your lifestyle
49. 1:30doesn't uh prevent you from doing that,
50. 1:32I think that would be my my honest
51. 1:34answer. Otherwise, you're just saying
52. 1:35how do I pick a business?
53. 1:38That's longer than I have time for.
