We heard from 2 members of The RC of Denver SE today.  Ross King introduced our speaker, Victor Mitchell.  Vic is Founder/CEO of Lead Funding and has been an entrepreneur in various fields since college including transportation companies and various direct to consumer wireless companies.  Lead Funding is a specialty lending organization that provides private financing solutions for homebuilders and developers.
 
Vic clearly has a heart for entrepreneurship and shared some of the things he's learned in a lifetime of working for himself.  He mentioned that he took it as a personal challenge when told, "That will never work!" when there was no data to support that statement.  He recommends that you research and know your numbers and understand the barriers to success.  He credits picking a good team as part of his success but cautions that excellent performers can sometimes be hard to work with.
