The world is changing, and itās important to acknowledge that certain long held beliefs should be re-examined.

I donāt have all the answers, so after reading this piece, leave a comment so I can get your perspective on the 18 to 28 debate.
Hey VaynerNation, Iām turning forty-five today. With that in mind, Iāve started to really think about the next forty-five years, because ninety feels about right for me to hang up my jersey.

A little over a year ago, I launched YummyText for my dad. It was similar to WineText but specialized in providing high quality, gourmet food (at an affordable price) to people who would appreciate it. Since then, this service has blown up, allowing us to expand our offerings and who weāre able to serve. Now weāre expanding again...check out YummyText if youāre... A person who LOVES food This service is for food enthusiasts-- the people who love good food, convenience, and donāt like the overpriced options they might find in the store. For example, our recent deal on Parmigiano Reggiano takes 15% less out of your pocket than the leading discount store (and tastes 100% better). YummyText offers premium olive oil, cheese, chocolate, wine, and so much more! You can elevate your go-to recipes with our exclusive selection of rare sauces and patsas. Or, you can try something new by checking out our Instagram page for recipes and the deal of the day. A person with a small business/ speciality store Maybe youāre more of a behind the scenes person?
