Twelve years ago I walked out of a military office for the last time. No applause. No golden parachute. Just a gut-level belief that there was more leverage in Main Street than Wall Street ever wanted to admit. That hunch turned into a playbook: buy real businesses, build real systems, and create freedom without chasing unicorns. Over time, I applied it across multiple acquisitions and saw returns that outperform traditional markets without the bureaucracy. I wrote this piece for Forbes to unpack the strategy, the lessons, and the hard-won perspective behind Main Street investing. It's not about theory. It's about what actually works. If you're building or buying with long-term autonomy in mind, I’d love to hear your take.
