Building a Business…Hustle and ‘Do More Faster’
I was in Dallas yesterday because I had a chance to sit with Mark Cuban and discuss trends, stocks, and start-ups. I was actually prepared, expecting to get 20 minutes or so, but was thrown off by Mark giving me a couple hours with the cameras rolling. Jon Labes and I had a blast and …

Waaay back in 2006 i was hell bent on Gold, Canada, Oil and Toronto. It helped that I was born and raised in the city. Toronto is unique as is Canada. I wrote a post that outlined my main investment thesis for the trend and I was investing my money where my mouth was . …
