Quotables:

• “I’ve seen it where they use cost of goods sold because it doesn’t matter for fellow purposes. It’s just a deduction, but the state will jump on it, and the opposite in Texas. Unless you call it cost of goods sold, you don’t get it as cost of goods sold even if it is cost of goods sold.” - Jordan Goodman [08:02]

• “I don’t care what piece of paper you give the store. What did you pay for out of your cash. That’s the only thing that matters.” - Richard Pomp [23:28]
