This week Kris talks with Rami Baroudi of buyfleetdirect.com. If you hate the idea of haggling with the dealer for your new car purchase, come along for this incredible job tour. Rami is an auto broker. He’s the guy who will take your dream car deal and make it a reality without you ever even talking to the dealer! If you are a consumer and really want to get insider information about how the dealership is set up to make money, this interview will help you. But, if you really love cars and love negotiating, and would love the opportunity to make it on your own in business, this podcast will put those thoughts into overdrive! And spoiler alert- this is a business for ambitious, self-starters, not just for (and maybe not for) “A” students in high school or college. You need to be motivated by the art of the deal.

For almost 20 years Jim has been in front of hundreds of people, hearing their cases and making key determinations about their eligibility for asylum protection in the United States.

What’s it like to meet with the mayor on a regular basis about the state of real estate development in the city?

Whichever person you resonate with, you will find this career goal discussion applies to you. Spoiler alert- you can have a degree in English and become a valuable member of Seimone’s planning department! Seimone is a civil engineer by education, but he now spends the majority of his time writing, managing and presenting ideas and findings. You’ll get to see what kind of people succeed in building and planning in city government.
