My Friend's Success Story | A New Coffee Shop in the Making

<center><a href='https://d.tube/#!/v/captainbob/dq0mf4m3'><img src='https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmXCdr9FJgdg1jwya6PmFLLXoDu88JEbRTL6vGiJdpmdEZ'></a></center><hr>

Today we get a chance to talk to a great friend of mine who is a true success story that proves hard work and perseverance can result in success.  Yousef used to work for/with me on apartment complex renovations and now is a independent entrepreneur.  He is the very definition of humility and hard work.  I love the guy and I'm so happy for his success!  We will be making some coffee shop videos to help promote his new venture when it is finished, but today, I just wanted you to have a chance to meet him and get to know Yousef a bit.

With Gratitude,
Captain Bob

Yeah the guy has really made a great business enterprise and all from hard work and dedication.  Immigrated from Palestine, became a US Citizen and is realizing the dream man.  Great stuff.  Not to mention he is humble and honest.  Love that.

I like the fact that they are not gonna be cooking fries. 

Having lived and worked abroad I kinda connect with Yousef feelings and it really makes me happy to see his excitement and success.

**Hard work pays off.**

Great story Captain!

Yes!  He's become a US citizen and worked his tail off to get where he's at now.  Great to see.
