There has been a number of times in my career when I have wanted to quit.
But there was one time I was very serious…I just couldn’t seem to get people to join my business.
One day I went into my father’s office and told him that I was ready to quit, and he told me something quite shocking:
“Frazer, let’s rob a bank!”.
I laughed, thinking he had lost the plot, but he was deadly serious. He then said:
“Ok, if we were going to rob a bank what would we need to know?”.
I replied a few times with silly things like “A Shotgun”, “Getaway Car”, “Other People”,...then he asked me to be serious, and I said:
“I would need to know where the money is”.
He then told me that every bank is different, the layouts, alarms, staff, and of course the location of the vault.
You need to find the vault!
He said: “Frazer, people have their own vaults, everyone is different. Maybe one person’s vault has a shiny red Ferrari, another person’s vault has a luxury holiday once a year, another one's vault simply has an extra $500 per month.”
