Thumbs up Thx

THX HH84... I was not aware of the terms mentioned. I would see the post above considering someone who is planning on getting out in the next 5-10 and guiding for them and making them aware of your goal. If that involves a contribution, at least it's not a half-mil in the short term!

Having worked as a guide at a lodge and, knowing the owner well, I also agree that the business mindset is a must have. In addition, I often call it "babysitting big kids" because you will run into that as well...
