In this very special 50th episode and final interview of the year, we share with you priceless wisdom from Dave Ederer. Dave has far too many accomplishments and successes throughout his career of 40+ years in which he has acquired well over 30 businesses.

As you'd hope from an interview like this, Dave shares some of the most practical advice he has for business owners and entrepreneurs. But Dave goes much further and describes the things he has found fill his life with meaning and substance beyond amassing significant wealth. 

It was a rare opportunity for us to sit down with someone of his stature — seated as we were in his office 35 floors up and looking out over the Space Needle, Downtown Seattle, and the lovely Puget Sound. Dave is in his 80s now and is battling Stage 4 cancer. As such, there was an extra gravitas and sobriety to the conversation (that said, Dave is so full of life that it wouldn't surprise us if he were to outlive us all!). 

While it's a lengthier than usual episode and the conversation meanders through Dave's experiences, you'll be richly rewarded for the time invested hearing his story and internalizing the lessons he shares.
