People are chasing cash, not happiness. When you chase money, you're going to lose. You're just going to. Even if you get the money, you're not going to be happy.

Do what makes you happy. Keep it simple. Do the research. Work hard. Look ahead.

I'm not afraid to call a wine that tastes like Skittles or green peppers mixed with orange marmalade. I'll say, 'It tastes like chicken.' I mean, that's not what people think of when they think of wine, but that's what it tastes like to me and it hits home.

It's a very painful, eye-opening experience to realize, Wait a minute, my dad actually doesn't want me to be successful because he's not happy. Whether you call it misery loves company, it's not like parents are bad people. It's a human trait. It's just a thing.

Even though I'm a hype man myself, I like the practicality of it all. People who understand how to turn a profit. At the end of the day, this is still business so I'm looking for real practical knowledge of how to actually make money, not necessarily raise it.

It's not how many followers you have, it's how many care. It's not width, it's depth. It's not how many impressions you get, it's how much attention you get.

I know if I stopped hosting 'Wine Library TV,' we'd probably lose 75 percent of our audience, but the remaining 25 percent is still a big number.

I have no interest in going to Egypt and seeing the pyramids. I'm just not that kind of dude.

I didn't start with a lot. I have friends who started with a lot who have now built on top of it, and I'm impressed because I used to think that was a disadvantage. I think there are a million ways to do it.

When the tech geeks talk, I pay close attention.

Know the philosophy, know the details, and ignore everything in the middle.

I am aware of the talent I was gifted and had to execute against it. It is just being very self aware and betting on your best strength.
