In this episode of The Kronos Group Podcast, Jerry Brazie sits down with entrepreneur and investor Tim Delaney for a real-world conversation about buying businesses, building cash flow, and creating financial independence without chasing hype. Tim shares how buying an existing liquor store — not a startup, not a tech company — became the foundation for long-term wealth, real estate ownership, and operational freedom. Together, Jerry and Tim break down what most people misunderstand about entrepreneurship and why boring, unsexy businesses are often the smartest path forward. You'll learn: Why buying an existing business can beat starting from scratch How SBA 7(a) loans actually work in real deals The importance of seller financing and deal structure Why "passive income" is mostly a myth The discipline required to run and scale a real business How small operational changes can dramatically increase profit This episode is for operators, founders, and aspiring business owners who want practical insight — not motivational noise.
