[0:37] Mike gives a recap of the last week including an overview of his time and money statistics, an update on his new housing, transportation and the Million Dollar Comeback project itself.
[10:14] He also shares the two approaches he considers to save the money to start this new business. As you have been able to see, it takes some “work” to be able to work on a business. Making enough money to live and put into a business and taking care of personal things like housing and transportation all require effort before he can really focus on the business. So what are the two approaches and which approach is better? Listen in to hear which option he chose.

It's definitely something to consider if going back to an office after COVID.
Mike also dives into the number one thing you need to reevaluate about where you spend money and a little hack to get on the phone with someone who provided great information for his new business.
