It is a pretty interesting show if you are into "Businesses". He basically buys into businesses then fixes the problems. Usually, the business was losing money. Much of it is poor management and,...

Nice post Harold. I think you covered a lot of good points in one post. Very well thought out.

I am sure there is a lot that goes on behind the scenes that we don't see. I have to think some things are staged to add a little more drama to the show. Still I have to wonder how some of the...

I have been binge watching this years episodes. Since I don't get CNBC it is tough to find them but I found them on Yahoo View. I have two to go to catch up. I have never seen so many...

I don't know if you do many sales up this way, but 2 of Ontario's largest farm shows happen within 25 minutes of me. One is wrapping up today in London and the other runs in mid September (Canada's...

Unlike a job I think your own business becomes a big part of your self identity. When you don't understand the numbers you don't want to let go and feel like a failure so you do whatever you feel...

I just watched the Southern Culture episode yesterday (actually for the second time). I had talked about so many of the companies he is called in to save not knowing their numbers. When Marcus sat...

I love the show as well. I think even someone who operates their business well would become an even better manager if they watch that show. It is so much cheaper to learn from the mistakes of...

I agree with you that many seem to let debt get out of control. It seems like a lot of them want the life they could have after the business is successful before it is successful. As I recall the...

I have to wonder with some of the issues that the managers of the companies in trouble have how they made it as long as they did without driving their businesses broke. There are some great people...

I just finished watching the Farrells episode. I can see what you mean by repackaging but sometimes presentation can make a big difference and make the extra labor worth the investment. It amazes...

Being a cheapskate is just starting a free 30 day trial for Hulu which has all of this years Profit episodes. The site I used before to view them didn't seem to work but if it is the same site you...

I believe Marcus said he had invested 50 million in Bentley's and I am sure if someone invested that much in your business it would grow faster but I do agree with you it is good to grow slowly. One...

This was a new episode that aired for the first time last Tue. The first half he looked at a shirt manufacturing business and walked away because one of the owners also was a radio DJ and his show...

This weeks episode made me think about SumpinSpecial since the last half was about pet supplies. It was interesting that he invested in a chain of 6 pet stores a few years ago and now they have 80...

I do think that many business owners who got into the habit of watching every episode would turn out to be better operators from the things they learn from watching the show. I am actually watching...

The Profit is one of my favorite shows as well. Unfortunately we are tightwads and have only the basic cable package which doesn't include CNBC but I have managed to see all episodes up to this year...
