David was able to quit his 9 to 5 and go all in on selling on Amazon doing online arbitrage. We chat about David's background and how he spent some time in jail and dealing with addiction to becoming a business owner. He talks about how running the streets can actually be a leg up as an entrepreneur. We also discuss how he makes his sourcing decisions and what it's taken to grow to where he is and what may change as he scales further.
