Stop Building Businesses. Start Funding Them. (The "Kingmaker" Strategy)
Everyone wants to be a CEO, but they are playing on "Hard Mode." 🎮 While 90% of startups fail, the business lending market is projected to hit $9.3 trillion by 2030.

Inflation is Your Business Partner
While you are patting yourself on the back for being 'debt-free' and hoarding cash, your money is being stolen right out from under your nose. It’s called inflation.

2. You're forced into an "Interest Rate Gamble" (one "Amateur" saw his 6.50% rate jump 42.3% to 9.25%).
3. The punchline? A Chase banker told us 95% of applicants get denied anyway.
