Transcript:
Very much. One of the things I learned over the years is that for anybody to be successful in any role you have to have ability to begin with and then you need education and training and experience and probably most of all the willingness to do whatever it is the function is that you are going to take on. My educational experience certainly helped prepare me because it gave me an overview of what kinds of things happen in a business and I got some basic accounting skills which are really critical to a business. That’s probably the lifeblood of a business; making sure you have cash and that you know how the cash is coming in and going out. But the experience is invaluable and everybody is going to make mistakes in life, in the job.
Your employees are going to make mistakes. You can’t expect them to be perfect. Those mistakes are going to cost you money and you almost have to budget for that. I was able to make my mistakes on somebody else’s dime which was probably good for me, maybe not so good for them, but that is part of the cost of doing business. Now you as the owner of a business are going to have to accept the fact that when you bring somebody in new, part of the cost of hiring a new employee and training them is that they are going to make mistakes that cost you money and you may as well budget for it. But I had the opportunity to make those mistakes before I bought a business and that prevented me from making a lot of mistakes after I purchased the business.

All Shall Perish – There is no Business to be Done On A Dead Planet [Lyrics]
All shall Perish – Theres no business to be done on a dead planet
-Price of Existence
Lyrics:
Depleting the need of thieves to care
They rise on Degradations wings
I’ve seen, we’ve all seen
We have seen the coming price for our
Self-righteous greed
A cry from earth for changes
A silent plea
Deciphered in a manner
Lost in failure
We’ve left in-numerous numbers
Failing into tears
They’ve lost their lives
We’re on a killing spree
Killing spree
The blood of tortured souls stains us
The blood of tortured souls stain me
I can’t bear it
We must see where this life’s leading
Kill these deadly habits
We must see where this lies leading
Then we’ll listen, then we’ll listen to a cry from earth for changes
A silent plea
Deciphered in a manner
Lost in failure
We’ve whored this world for riches
And we soon shall see
We’ve lost our lives
What good is all their money when
There’s nothing left to buy?

The Business of Climate Change Conference 2009
Jeff Rubin, the former Chief Economist of CIBC World Markets and the author of Why Your World Is About To Get A Whole Lot Smaller built his reputation as one of Canada’s top economists based on a number of successful predictions including the housing bust of the early 90s and the rise of oil prices. In his recent book, Mr. Rubin predicts $225 per barrel oil by 2012 and with it the end of globalization, a movement towards local sourcing and a need for massive scaling up of energy efficiency.
