This isn't your average business podcast, and he's not your average host. This is the James Alteger Show. Presenting the archive. Classic episodes that remain timeless. The raw, unfiltered conversations from the early days in which people shared their failures and showed us exactly how they rebuilt everything from the ground up.

In the first half hour, All you do is get blackjack. Just blackjack, blackjack, blackjack. You can't lose a hand. You end up up, say, $2,000.

And it's just because everything went your way. But your friends are still playing, so you continue to play. And over the next hour and a half, you lose all but $100 back. You know, how are you feeling about that? Right, so you're feeling horrible even though you're up $100.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.49.
