AoL 045: Helping Veterans find Real Estate, Mentoring, and Business Success with Melinda Enfinger
Summary: <br> <br> Taking a passion and making money from it takes the form of many types of careers.<br> <br> For me, you guys know I love helping people do actually that. That's why my focus in grad school was entrepreneurship. I love discussing and thinking about it... turning around and helping someone else out through the process.<br> <br> This session's guest is no different.
