MONEY MATTERS with Christopher Hensley (Self Employed)

Small business owners are famous for taking as many deductions at tax time as the possibly can. When it comes time to get a car loan, mortgage or business loan they are disappointed to find out they are declined. How can entrepreneurs find balance preparing for a loan and making sure they are doing the right thing at tax time.

There's a reason Facebook was birthed in a dorm room, Amazon.com came from people not in the bookstore business, and UBER was created by people who weren't from the taxi industry.  Innovation, discovery, and creating disruption require blowing up conventional thinking and unleashing your entrepreneurial brilliance.

Mad Genius is a fire hose of creative stimulation that will spark breakthrough ideas and show you how to nurture them
