  • Changed my views

    Ahead of the curve has changed my life in many ways. I wake up and listen to ahead of the curve while I have my coffee. I listen during my workout and when I eat lunch. I also watch it when I am at my job. My wife says I watch it to much but I think she is just being stingy (I’m sorry if I want to listen to this while I eat dinner Karol) I usually drift to sleep while listening to this. Overall it is high quality and entertaining.
