On this numerically significant installment of Walt Right Perspectives I catch up with
, my business partner and COO at The Tortuga Society.Theon has played an essential role over the past few months overseeing day-to-day admin tasks while I detox off addy and write songs about Jewish women.
Now that I’m ready to step back into an active leadership role, I wanted to take the opportunity to formally introduce Theon to my wider audience, update everyone on the Tortuga Society’s recent progress, and announce the much-anticipated commencement of our external staffing venture.
Theon and I are incredibly excited about this last item because it will allow us to place Tortugans directly into roles while simultaneously pocketing a five-figure placement fee. It goes without saying there’s a tremendous amount of money to be made if we can execute this correctly. Thankfully I’m not going in blind.
Currently we have multiple senior members with ample connections throughout Corporate America supplying us leads, and are offering them a generous cut of the placement fee to help get business going. But we can never have enough leads, so if you’re interested in making a few shekels together just drop me an email at wb.vitalist@gmail.com and we’ll discuss terms.
Topics include:
Theon’s participation as a young man in the 2015-2017 Alt Right and reemergence last year into the Walt Right
