I'll pass you the boxes.
You give me three business ideas.
You'd start with $500, $1,000 and $5,000.
But I want to get a view on you and the businesses that you've started and the variety of success you've had.
So can you give me an overview?
Yeah.
So I was nine years old living in Utah, and I lived across the street from a golf course.
And these golf balls would fly in my yard.
And I don't know what gave me the idea, but...
I started selling them.
I just wanted money for a bike.
I wanted this Schwinn bicycle.
And it was red.
And my friends had a bicycle.
My neighbors had a bicycle.
And my parents didn't have money for it.
And so for whatever reason, I connected that white golf ball in my grass with money.
And I would...
go to my neighbor's yards, I'd go across the street, I'd dig through the ditches and I'd pull out all these golf balls, I'd wash them.
And then I put up this huge piece of plywood in front of my house that said golf balls three for a dollar.
