A savvy entrepreneur will not always look for investment money, first.

If you can't come clean and tell investors how and why you failed, that raises a red flag. They need to see that you learned from it and came back stronger.

I've come to learn that my initial investment is more about the person versus the product that I am buying into. I've also learned that I really do enjoy giving worthy people an opportunity of a lifetime.

Good grooming is integral, and impeccable style is a must. If you don't look the part, no one will want to give you time or money.

Strategic partners are way more important than money.

I've failed way more than I've succeeded.

I do today what people won't, so I achieve tomorrow what other people can't.
