#74: Owner's Mentality = Roll Up Sleeves. Clean Toilet. Wipe Sh!t Water Off Your Face

Episode 74. Yo, Masroor Ahmed. This dude is a finance lover. This guy really is comfortable with money and making big decisions around money. He showed us that he's willing to roll up his sleeves and clean some toilets and wash some dishes. That's right.  Dude is VP of finance at Factor 75. A company that makes food- organic, grass fed type of food- and then delivers it already cooked and chilled to your door. He's basically CFO for that company. We asked him, "yo, how do you make that chedda?" and he says it's all about work ethic in his opinion/experience. Noshod broke down some crazy stories from his time at military school and as a cross country runner- some depressing sh!t, but it was actually great because he ended up winning in the end. And, finally, Masroor, walks us through what it means to really have an owner's mentality. And how does that relate to the saying, "own your sh!t"? Yeah, Masroor told us some personal stories around that- really powerful.  We finished off talking about something unexpected- the Chicago Public School situation- and some ideas we have to make things better (if CPS would ever listen to us, but why would they? No idea.) There's so much knowledge already out there with Khan Academy and other similar sites that maybe there's some wacky or otherwise outside-the-box solutions for CPS's problems. So anyway, sit back, relax. Enjoy the episode. Thanks for tuning in, ya'll. Peace.
