He also discusses his involvement as co-owner of New Homes Guide and Housing Data Reports. As Regardie’s story unfolds you’ll find that he was academically challenged until he received a tip from his wife, Renay. If you continue to listen Regardie reveals the helpful tip in his interview. Regardie also gives us insight into his journey as a disgruntled waiter slinging hash in a New Jersey kosher restaurant through being fired from 11 of the 13 jobs that followed.
