Transcript excerpt from a YouTube video where the speaker describes burnout after firing their team, choosing to go hunting during hunting season, a personal achievement (killing a large deer), and current financial strain—about $25,000 total debt across two locations (mentioning ~ $10k in Champagne and ~$14k elsewhere). The speaker expects to be 'even' by late April and frames the situation as recovering from a bad key/personnel decision.

Chapters

I got super burnt out because we fired the whole team in Champagne last year. I was running, like, 50 budget hours and doing projects Friday and Saturday. And then it's hunting season, so I was like, I'm burnout. I'm going hunting. Yeah. I killed my biggest deer I ever killed. So, like, it kind of worked out in that front, but it didn't help the money side of things. Digging ourselves out of a hole. 25,000 between the two locations right now. So I think it's 10,000 in champagne. 14,000. So basically a break. Even, like, late April, hopefully. Yeah. Okay. That's pretty normal if you have a bad key. Four, though. Yeah.
