Whats Going to Happen to My Business?

This week, in episode 162, Jay Goltz tells us that, on second thought, he did learn something important watching HBO\u2019s Succession. He still wants to work as long as he can\u2014even if that means dying at his desk\u2014but he now realizes, thanks in part to Logan Roy, that he needs to put a plan in place in case he were to get hit by that proverbial bus. This realization was also furthered by hearing the story of a 51-year-old entrepreneur who died in his sleep recently, leaving his wife to figure out how to keep their bank from calling its loans. As part of his hit-by-a-bus plan, Jay says he\u2019s crossing streets very carefully, but also considering creating a board of advisors that will be able to offer advice to his survivors. But that\u2019s a little tricky because, as you may have noticed, Jay\u2019s not exactly a board-of-advisors kind of guy.
