Ep #012: One Thing Every Business Owner Should Know

When looking at your finances, where are you currently sitting and where do you need to be in the future to accomplish your goals? Many business owners have so many things going on in their lives that they don’t get a chance to properly plan for themselves or their families. Calculating your personal wealth gap is a way to identify how you’re doing with your personal planning. So, how do we actually calculate this?
