What do you do if you don't mind me asking? I know you're pretty successful.

pretty sure hes mentioned he owns his own landscaping company
Close. I took over a drywall company a couple years ago from my uncle and I've moved it into more than just drywall. Worked at this business since I was 15, was just a labourer till I was 19/20, then I became foreman, then I became head foreman, then I became part owner. I own 49% of it now, uncle and my older cousin own the rest but I handle everything now. I went from 20 employees to 40 employees this year but I'm back down to 25 or so after what I talked about in the summer happened.
It's all luck that I got this. My cousins should have had first crack at being foreman/owner but none of them are interested enough to do it. I might get out of it in a few years and sell it to my cousin when he's ready to take it. Then I'll start buying up property and building or buying houses/apartments myself to rent or sell.
