For that, we\u2019re going to interview our special guest Bridger Pennington, a serial entrepreneur who became a highly-successful investment fund manager. So, let\u2019s talk about how you can replicate his success...  ---------------------------------------------------------------- \u2b50 During this episode, we detail&amp;nbsp;these takeaways: &amp;nbsp;1. Discipline yourself in small decisions so that you\u2019ll do likewise in big decisions. &amp;nbsp;2. Live without regrets by taking worthwhile risks even if you fail\u2014and, to the extent that you\u2019re on the right path, persistently continue trying until you succeed. &amp;nbsp;3. A great path to wealth is through owning businesses and\/or investing in businesses, as long as you aren\u2019t limited by small market sizes and\/or tiny profit margins. &amp;nbsp;4. As long as you charge your fund investors only for your performance as their fund manager, and not for other reasons, you don\u2019t need to concern yourself with any burdensome state licensure requirements. &amp;nbsp;5. Seek out mentors and learn from them, as human capital is more valuable than financial capital. &amp;nbsp;6. Discover your obvious disadvantages, disclose them boldly as advantages in less-obvious ways, and find partners who compensate for what you truly lack but need. &amp;nbsp;7. You can enhance your wealth by teaching others how to replicate your success; facilitating their long-term success is more valuable than distributing short-term handouts. \u270d\ufe0f Click here for this episode\u2019s complete show notes!  ---------------------------------------------------------------- \ud83d\udc49 We want to help as many people as we can; so, if this podcast helps you, then we urge you to please\u2026 &amp;nbsp;\u2022&amp;nbsp;Subscribe to it on our website&amp;nbsp;so that you don't miss an episode! &amp;nbsp;\u2022&amp;nbsp;Discuss it in our private Facebook group with us and fellow entrepreneurs!
