David Porter appears on the podcast for the second time and catches up with Jason. David was on the podcast many years ago to talk about a metric he had creatively come up with that Jason dubbed the 'free lunch'. David considers himself a very conservative investor and didn't even get into debt until Jason recommended him to. He has been incredibly happy with the progress so far and shares some fantastic insight with Jason's audience today on the Solomon Success show.
