Now a guest, Jeremy Barker, who's a friend and entrepreneur, former fireman, founder of Murphy Doors, a real interesting story.

1:38.6

So we thought we'd have him in.

1:41.4

Jeremy, let's get you caught, let's get the audience caught up on who you are first. I know the fireman part, but I know the story, but it's fascinating. And inspiring, so go ahead. Appreciate that. So go a little bit back. When I was 18, I started a shed company that we supplied all the Home Depot's, and I made way too much money too early. And then ended up going bankrupt. And then I lived in my car for a year and then decided to build houses. And then that went bankrupt when the banks followed.

3:02.7

Roy in 2010. Oh, okay. Yep. So I did. So you get about $700 and change every two weeks. Your mortgage is like $2,300. It's not penciling out. It did make sense. So I was working at Roy City Fire, Layton Fire, and doing every other side job in construction that I knew, you know, concrete, framing, whatever. And I thought- All firemen are part-time carpenters as well. Oh, interesting.
