Episode Highlight:

01:46 - When you have investors, which most of these tech giants do, you can't do that or you tacking a fine line because these investors want a certain return back on their money, and you got to make a profit. So, that's what I'm looking at right now where I'm like, if you got investors now, it's got to be a pain in the butt right now because they're calling you if not everyday, and they're telling you what you got to do. So, you're not in control anymore. That's what happened and I've turned down so many investors, not in a rude way, but I didn't get this far to hand over the keys to someone else to tell me how my brand should be run.
