A quarter of a century ago, I was doing motivational speeches off the back of my books “The Risk Takers” and “The Risk Takers Five Years On” in which I’d documented entrepreneurial success. This has got to be my favorite ever!For what it’s worth: www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5zN...

Not the fault of the good folk who stayed, but the shit algorithm.
