Imagine this…

You help grow the home care and hospice company from $20 million to $150 million and then they fire you.

Then you think whether you should start your own thing or not, “I always knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur but I wasn’t ready for it…”

Voila…

You still decide to do it…

Today, at 38, Nikolas runs a diversified portfolio of 5 companies. ("A small portfolio of a few companies,”, as he put it.) What a humble man.
