A short YouTube interview excerpt where Speaker A (Marcel Proskow) describes launching a small business aimed at retired people on the Sunshine Coast — citing it as the highest per-capita retired population in Canada — by starting simple clothing lines (caps, golf shirts) to build momentum and then expanding to an online business with his son’s help. The speaker emphasizes the goal of creating an exciting venture without returning to 40–60 hour workweeks after winding down a 32-year career; the intention is to scale only as needed and delegate operations if the concept succeeds.

We actually have the highest per capita number of retired people in Canada, on the Sunshine Coast. So I have a great test market for this whole concept on how we're going to take it out, because we're looking at, you know, some clothing lines, some caps, golf shirts, you know, just to kind of get it. Get the momentum building on this, and then see if we can take it into an online business, which is where my son comes in and helps. So, you know, we've got a number of things that we're plugging into already and. But it's not 40 hours a week. Okay. This will be something that I will work my way into, and if it's really successful, I'll have other people run it because I'm not trying to find a replacement job for the job I'm winding up after 32 years. I'm looking at creating a new concept that excites people, but I don't want to be working 40, 60 hours a week to make that happen. I want to have my own desire magic.
