Shaun Attwood is better in my opinion but Patrick is good as well.

I think it’s a very important point Sal makes when he says. “No one will out-study or outwork me” . He also got married young so he had no distractions people have dating, clubbing and other wastes of time abs money. People see the end product of success, but not the hard stuff of actually learning and mastering their craft, making them great at sales as they know everything about their products; giving confidence to the buyer. Having certainty, through ability, versus Bullshitting wins with people every time.
