My
exit strategy is to sell my business in about 5 years. I’ve selected this exit strategy
because I plan on going back to college to pursue my Master’s in Psychology
after all of my children are in school. They will all be in school in the next

My grandparents’ business ventures must have encouraged my parents to do the same. Today, my dad and mom own an electrical business. My dad started out as an electrician for my grandpa, but decided he wanted to work for himself. So, he left my grandpa’s company and assumed his o...

Hello, Brandi
ReplyDeleteI think it is really awesome that you plan on selling your business in five years and then focusing on your masters in psychology.

Hi Brandi, great post. I think it is very cool that you are planning on getting your Masters in Psychology. I also said that my exit strategy would be to sell the business within five years. However, I made this decision because my business just doesn't line up with my career interests. Good luck with your plan to get your masters degree.
