The original concept behind the book was for a father to teach his children how to create a company that they could run and grow on their own - in his absence. This was meant for their eyes only, so it includes hardcore examples on how to build a business. The curtain is pulled back. Stan uses real examples from real projects that allow you to see how it can be done.

Did you know the typical small business owner works three to four months just to earn enough profit to pay taxes? Whether you've been in business for several decades or are breaking ground as a new entrepreneur, taxes are a significant expenditure. They must be accounted for and incorporated into your business plan from the very beginning. Failing to account for taxes when planning, budgeting, and assessing revenue goals for a business is like failing to account for the expense of your rent or mortgage.

A wonderful ambitious young man, 25% useful data.
Most significant issue was his suggestion to replace "walking a property" with standardization price per acre & using Google earth or maps. I'm honestly at a loss for words at how ridiculously irresponsible that is. even if the Google pictures were taken yesterday(which they are not) there are a multitude of ground conditions unseen by Google. Not to mention perimeter issues &/or mechanical issues. Relying on Google for anything more then an idea of property volume is terrible practice.
Other than that there is good data on developing systems, hope the best for the young man.
