I’ve learned over the years — in real estate, distressed debt, and business in general — that the real measure of success isn’t just the deals you close or the capital you raise. It’s the quality of our partnerships.
In this Coffee with Bill episode of Debt Doctor, I’m talking about the messy, meaningful truth behind business partnerships and joint ventures — what makes them thrive, and what makes them fall apart. From ego clashes to communication breakdowns, I’ve seen how trust, shared purpose, and mutual respect can either protect or destroy everything you’ve built.
Whether you’re an investor, an entrepreneur, or a partner in a fund or distressed debt venture, this conversation will help you evaluate your own partnerships — where they’re strong, where they’re strained, and how to create collaboration that lasts beyond the profit cycle.
Because in business, partnerships aren’t just transactions. They’re the relationships that build real, sustainable wealth.
