The Power of Proximity - Paul Hawkinson, Transform Capital
EPISODE SUMMARY
Friends for 35 years (wow, are they both getting old), join the conversation with our guest Paul Hawkinson and host Marc Horner. As college buddies, basketball teammates and with more than one golf trip under their belts, our guess is there is a lot more to discuss (with a lot less maturity) then talking about their recent visit to Statesville prison and Paul’s many experiences since walking away from the world of high finance. But this is a good start!
