| 0:09.6 | we teach you four rules to help you stop it from paycheck to paycheck. Get out of debt |
| 0:13.0 | and save more money. Today, we're going to take a little bit of a detour on the socials. |
| 0:18.2 | We said that you all could ask me any small business questions you might have. And while |
| 0:23.6 | I've only ever run one small business, you know, this is one guy's opinion with one |
