In continuation of connecting to our community in great conversation while extracting the knowledge, value, and our love for Pokemon, we go from the mountain base to the peak with Terry Lake (aka Terbear). Many of you know this man through chat and live interactions within the Pokemon community for the past 3 years, however, like any successful journey in life, there is much more than meets the eye. Terry brings more than 40+ years of business startup/growth, financial management, tax specialty, building a successful family and now moving smoothly into retirement, all while still maximizing the grind in a plethora of areas in his time of “relaxation”. Sit back, relax and take some notes as the information here today could save your decades of mistakes and thousands (or more) in costs. Now let's have a great time and welcome Terry Lake to Pokemon Wonder.
