The Prison Entrepreneurship Program (PEP) continues to change lives and always fun to bring my @SMUCoxstudents to volunteer at their semi-annual business plan contest!

Very nice touch to include a customized thank you card with my name and my volunteer history, going back to 2015!

Last week I attended the annual entrepreneurship conference for academics in Birmingham AL. The absolute highlight was the Space & Tech Entrepreneurship field trip to ULA (a competitor of @spacex) for a tour of their rocket manufacturing plant!

The last sentence says it all... In entrepreneur-land (and university leadership) - inability to sell is the kiss of death.

'It’s not enough to be smart and competent β€” the boss also has to know how to sell.'

Learning math teaches you to think in abstraction... If you can learn to think in abstraction, then you have the skill to see problems and solutions that others don't/can't see, and that's a competitive advantage.... Especially in entrepreneur-land.

Beach access is less important than the principle of private property rights. I know commies hate private property rights
