So Jack, welcome to the podcast. Please give us a little bit of information on your background, and kind of where you're at in your reselling business right now. Jack: I can do that, Rob. Welcome, everybody. Let's go back a ways. Very early in, in my life and career, I was a dairy farmer. Okay, [00:01:00] that's getting up and milking cows, feeding animals, doing hay. That, that whole bit, I did it through high school, did it through college, did it after college for full-time for a while. It was family. It was my single uncle.And that really is the compass that set my direction in life. I knew, at college, if this man could get up at five o'clock and milk cows, I could get up and study and be a better person. So, it's made my compass throughout life. College was environmental studies. After college working on the farm, I was also a regional writer and conservation periodical.And over the years, it morphed into me starting up working in the horticulture industry, getting away from animal husbandry into horticulture. And that's what I've done for the last 30 years. I started a national employment newspaper for horticulture employment back in the [00:02:00] mid nineties called Farrell's Jobs In Horticulture. I sold it in the late, late nineties and in 2000, my largest advertiser asked me to come to Florida. They were executive recruiters for the horticulture industry. So in 2000 we left Pennsylvania moved to Florida, and work with a Sanford company called Floor Search, retiring the very last day of 2018.And I'm married to my life partner and partner in the flipping business, Joan, and I cannot say enough about how genuine a person Joan is. We have two daughters, Jacqueline and Gina and two son-in-laws, Joe and Mark, and now we have three granddaughters. Abigail is three, Ellis two, and little Weston's 10 months, but he'll turn one in January. So we'll have a 3, 2, 1, and maybe it's done. We don't know yet. [00:03:00] So that's a little bit about me and a little about, about the family. Rob: I love it. I love it. And the cool thing about this is your story is totally different than our story I've been flipping for over 20 years. Now, you don't have any experience in the flipping industry. So how did you go to that next level? What caused you, a little over a year ago, what caused you to, to jump into the flipping industry? Jack: Well, it's partially right and let me add some, some depth to it. Flipper University, yes. We're alumni 12 months, now. How do you like that term? Alumni?But I would look back over the years. We've flipped various items. I'm the only person I can think of that I've had two open houses and I've sold two homes by having open houses. And I just have the feeling if you can make things look good and of course need to be good that somebody will buy it.So we did that, Joan [00:04:00] and I rehabbed three mobile homes, two single-wides and a double-wide. So we sold those. We also have flipped five RVs. We had three class B units, the van type RVs and two travel trailers that we've used and sold. And I guess lastly, I've had six maxi motor scooters, Suzukis, Hondas, and have sold those. So we have flipped things.But never with the continuity, the uniformity that you all have put together in the Flipper University. And I heard about it and I called Joan, and I was traveling said, Hey, you know, we need to listen to, to this and, and track it out. And we did, and firm believers that education is cheap compared to ignorance. So we got the education. Rob: Awesome. So you do have some history [00:05:00] and it's actually larger stuff, houses, RVs, motorcycles, and stuff like that. That is you have some experien
