Tweetable Quotes:

“One thing my dad just ingrained in me was delayed gratification. And I think that's one of the strongest skill sets, especially in today's day and age to be able to exercise just the ability to delay gratification, which is kind of version one, but then version two is actually applying that appropriately.” – Adam Zach

“I'm going to get into this deal and it might make money or the worst case. I either have insurance and I learned something, or I break even. And if that's like the worst case that happens, that's a great two-to-one. Reward to risk ratio that can oftentimes get us out of our own way.” – Adam Zach
