I guess today maybe one of the best stories out there for men who chose to change his life

and it dramatically helped him out. He went from spending 15 years in jail and ex-fellown to

selling his bread company which I've never had. I'm going to have it today live. Dave's killer bread for $275 million cash and he

hires ex-fellowns, ex-men who did time. I think the third of their employees are ex-fellowns. With that being said,

my guest today is Dave Dahl. Dave, thank you so much for being a guest on my attainment.

So first of all, I read this story. I watch all your videos, you know how open you are about things you've done.

It's not like you're even hiding it. You just kind of openly share here's what I did here's what I did there.

This is why I was. So if you don't mind taking a minute here and sharing with the audience, you know,

your background story, how you went from where you were out to starting the company.

I think that'd be great for starters.

I had a pretty screwed up childhood, the kind of childhood that nobody, you know, I can't even explain to someone and have them understand.

But it is what it is. And, you know, I was a baker. My dad was a baker. That's what we did when we were running our kids growing up.

We didn't have money, but we managed to get by with, you know, producing bread.

You know, I didn't want to do that. I had a lot of depression when I was young and I turned to drugs and eventually crime.

It was really the only thing I knew how to do besides bread. And I didn't really know how to do that either.

The crime part. So I had to learn the hard way. So I went to prison four times. I was not very good at it.

I did 15 years. All drug related in the sense that everything was in order to get drugs.

And so four trips to prison, my four time down, I had the piphany. I got some help from my medication, I got some medication from my depression.

And it actually worked for me. And then I went to school for drafting, completed drafting, which is a trade that was exciting to me.

I had a lot of fun with it and I realized I was capable of doing more than I thought. So I excelled at that.

And eventually got out of prison and went to work, making bread and, you know, work with my family and creating my own products.

So I didn't expect the kind of success that I had that I, I mean, nobody could write in bread.
