Here's how I think of my money - as soldiers - I send them out to war everyday. I want them to take prisoners and come home, so there's more of them.

The practical reality of managing cars in the family - I do 36-month leases. I think they're horrible investments. And you want to give them back after their warranty is over.

I think a book is your calling card, your business card.

I think every entrepreneur in Canada owes the next generation a road map of how to do it again.

Money is my military, each dollar a soldier. I never send my money into battle unprepared and undefended. I send it to conquer and take currency prisoner and bring it back to me.

I have had some great successes and great failures. I think every entrepreneur has. I try to learn from all of them.
