Top 3 Value Bombs:

1. Every successful business and every successful founder has figured out, whether through impulses or versions of scaling, how to make their business more successful. Just because your business is successful, doesn't mean it's valuable.

2. A lot of times, what the sellers really want is to do something else, be that retirement, or investment in another business, or to come to office less often, or not have the responsibility of managing people anymore, or not have to deal with environments and economic cycles.

3. When you're a successful entrepreneur, chances are, you have ignored overtime a lot of well-meaning but poor advise. And, your impulses which may or may not scale, has caused a lot of your success.
