David Grau Sr.

what's the last day on the job look like for you?

And we're not talking, you know, fire a tragic end here.

Do you want to retire?

The FBI in handcuffs leads you out.

No, that's what we're after.

Nothing but positive.

But, you know, do you want to sell the business, you know, for, you know, $15 million?

How would you like your story to end?

And I've learned to ask that question and then just listen.

And very few people, relatively speaking, want to sell it, walk away, and then figure out what to do next.

Some do, but most of them say, you know what I'd really like to do is if I'm good at what I do and I like what I'm doing and I don't have to work 80 hours a week, I could do this forever.

And I enjoy coming to work.

I like having the corner office.

I enjoy the income stream.

And I like being mentored to the next generation.

So I'll just keep doing it.

Terrific.

But at some point you are going to have to retire and hang it up.

What happens then?

And most people say, well, I hadn't really thought about that.
