Perfect example of why it’s a good idea to not just JUMP into something but to work in the market (even if that means buying the company) and identify the new opportunities or needs (areas to create value) from that previous experience - which is how he launched his mixer business.
What? That is exactly what this guy did. He just jumped in with no knowledge and taught himself. Probably would have been better to read up first before purchasing.
