Andrew: Hey there, freedom fighters. My name is Andrew Warner. I’m the founder of Mixergy.com, home of the ambitious upstart.

He suddenly looked up at me.
Joining me today is an entrepreneur who did it. He bootstrapped. He hustled. He worked. He built. He sold. He made phone calls, dealt with all kinds of crises, including a major one and then he sold. And usually when we talk about the struggle of entrepreneurship, we talk about it because there’s a pot at the end of that rainbow.
There’s a goal here. This guy hit that goal. He finally got to retirement. He went off and–well, he’ll tell you what he did. Then he got bored. Bored. Imagine that....
