"Some businesses aren't profitable from a VC standpoint but are by a lifestyle business standpoint. Some businesses aren't profitable from a small business workforce standpoint but are profitable from a single person workforce standpoint."

Does his name start with a B and he spent considerable time in Japan? If so, I may know him. If not, amazing to hear of multiple millionaires from stickers!!!
