Our guest this week grew up in Redford, Michigan of Mexican descent. A $150 raffle ticket in 1979 at a Builder’s Association dinner-dance changed his life and 10’s of thousands of others.

He started a business that same year with less than $20,000 to his name and today Ideal Group is one of America’s largest Hispanic owned firms with revenues of $500 million and 750+ employees.
