In this episode, I break down how Jay went from 25 years on Wall Street to owning a plant leasing business that's been running for nearly 40 years and pays him $650K a year.

◼️ Why the biggest plants in a hotel lobby are rented and never sold, and how the same plant earns money at three different clients

◼️ The 10% he put down on a $2M business, and where the other 90% came from

◼️ Why a $500K business can be riskier to own than a $2M one
