  • “So many nuggets in here… can’t express how much I have learned — driving potential centers and paying attention to my own habits and frustrations. Nick Sansone where have you been all my life. Back in 2002 when I started, we kinda just winged it and only tracked cash on cash. Killer stuff. Newer investors, please listen to every word as I am.”
