When Don was 18, his parents told him, “you don’t know what it means to run a business. Go get a civil servant job.” Regardless, he went on to start a successful financial planning company and formed the New York Association of Mortgage Brokers and National Association of Mortgage Brokers.

In this episode, we talk to the co-founder of AccrueMe about what he wishes he would’ve done if he could go back and the lessons he’s learned along the way.
