Walmart has offered its employees a 15 percent store discount instead of holiday pay this year.

At the same time, the company is saving an estimated $2.2B a year thanks to the Trump tax cuts.

America has socialism for the rich, cold, hard capitalism for everyone else.

[Allistair McCaw @AllistairMcCaw]

There’s no way around it. To have a culture of excellence you have to be willing to:
- build solid relationships
- have the hard conversations
- have great communication
- be open to feedback
- deal with the real issues head on

I believe that 2 of the most important skills in life are:
1. Your Mindset
2. Your Work Ethic

The best mentors ask a ton of questions. They play devil's advocate. They push you to examine your thinking. Their informed curiosity drives your learning, not their advice.

[Lane Merrifield @lanemerrifield]

Let it be a lesson for #entrepreneurs, you have to have reality built into your valuation. No one believes in the potential of your product the way you do, and no qualified investor will give you money based purely on dreams. #cbcdragonsden
