Bob Schlegel sold his company Pavestone for $540 million dollars, or did he?
This sale is not his first rodeo. Bob and his wife Myrna famously sold People Care Heritage Centers in 1994 for enough money to be set for life for him and his kids. But $540 million for Pavestone? That’s a whole new level!
The sale of Pavestone came with unbelievable challenges and delays. In Bob’s new book, Angels and Entrepreneurs, he shares his story of growing up on a farm in Canada, being the first generation in his family to attend high school, and immigrating to America to write his own American dream story.
The book is bursting with great advice, and he shares some of that advice on today's show, along with Trinity Investors Co-Founder Sanjay Chandra, an immigrant himself.
