First- hope you all like the new intro for the show.  

Brendan is awesome.  A former Marine, he went to Wharton (back to back Wharton episodes on this show...they should pay me for recruiting) and started Paintru- a service that delivers custom portraits.  

We also have a special addendum to this episode where Brendan comes back on and discusses a collaboration with Steel Hearts Foundation to raise money for the service academy graduates killed in the GWOT.

Alec is a seeming wonder man.  He's done so much it's astounding sometimes.   USNA to industry to Wharton to a top consulting firm...that just scratches the surface.  To top it off- he's massively supportive of helping his fellow veterans crush it.

This episode is meant to accompany "16 Ways Veterans Can Buy a Small Business" from the website, theveteranpro.com

Business acquisition sounds like crazy talk, until you realize that it's way more approachable than you think and people are HUNGRY to have veterans run businesses. The show will cover financing deals, search funds, SBA loans, and where you can find deals to make it happen.
