#1154: Fear wears a cardigan

Fear doesn't show up in a cape. He shows up in a cardigan, sits down at your kitchen table with a spreadsheet, and asks if you've run the downside scenario. In this Coach's Corner, Brian and Robin Joy tell the story of the 11 years they spent "being fine" after a real estate crash, the hemorrhagic stroke that hit Robin weeks after they launched their Amazon business, and the moment they realized that if that didn't stop them, nothing would. Then they turn it into something you can use. Why almost every seller hits a cash crunch between week seven and week twelve. Why "as much as I can" is not a plan. And the one hire that finally made their business click. You didn't fail. You just flinched. Now get back up. Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If my bank statements don't show the full account number, should I switch banks?"
