he journey of today's guest took an unlikely turn.

After about 2 years into ownership of his commercial fencing business, Jack Saville decided to sell the business to a large regional platform.

Now his contacts at that large platform were the investors in his original acquisition, and one of the teachers at his buy-a-business bootcamp, Sam Rosati.

Sam is a name that may be familiar to you, and he joins Jack and me for a three-way conversation about how all this came to pass.

Some important themes will jump out at you:

• Setting an example for your kids by buying a business.
• Realizing your full potential, and whether owning and operating a subscale business actually does that.
• How unpredictable entrepreneurship is, but that that is a feature not a bug. The outcome for Jack was not exactly as he'd envisioned it, but nothing would have happened if he hadn't taken action and gotten into business ownership in the first place.

Here are Jack Saville and Sam Rosati, both of Perimeter Solutions Group.
