Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

It was the townhouse and this was the backyard.

And the person who bought the townhouse, instead of keeping the backyard, built this little room in the back with this beautiful skylight.

And I'm sitting there like, I don't want this to be the pizzeria because I got that perfect little box in front.

And I'm not exactly sure what this is going to be, but I still want this space.

Yeah.

And I believed that the numbers made sense for just that front slice shop.

And I would have some time to think about what I was going to do with this back room.

Now, I had never had an office in my life.

I started in finance.

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy
Sean Feeney - Reinventing the Restaurant Business - [Invest Like the Best, CLASSICS]

I was on a trading floor the whole time.

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

I never got to a point where I was important enough to have an office.

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

I was always on that trading floor.

And then when...

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy
Sean Feeney - Reinventing the Restaurant Business - [Invest Like the Best, CLASSICS]

I had the restaurants, I would use the dining rooms as the office.

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

And for the first couple hours of the day, I would still go to the restaurants really early before anybody was there because I loved waking up early and doing it.

But then at like 10 o'clock, 10.30, 11 o'clock in the morning, that's when restaurant teams start coming in for that night.

And that privacy was not really there.

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

And I would get pulled in different directions.

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

And so I was like, all right, well, I'll just use that space as my office.

And it was so cool to think about we had this beautiful sunlight coming in.
