Made a YouTube video for contractor guys — go ahead and make fun of the thumbnail

I've been on here forever, LSU grad. This is actually the first account I ever made — used my real last name like an idiot, so I never post with it. I post regularly under a different username, but figured this one made sense for this.

I spent years working as a financial consultant inside contractor businesses, and I just started a YouTube channel called Beyond the Estimate to actually break down that stuff in a way that makes sense — no jargon, no guru nonsense.

First video's up now, walking through three real situations I've seen — an HVAC owner who couldn't figure out where two hundred grand a year in profit was disappearing to, a bookkeeping mistake that quietly wrecked a drywall company's numbers, and an unpaid invoice that sat for over three months before anyone noticed.

Plan is to keep putting these out regularly. Not trying to sell anybody anything in here, just figured some of y'all dealing with this exact headache might get something out of it.

If you want to help out a fellow LSU grad, hitting subscribe goes a long way — even if you don't end up watching a ton of the videos, it genuinely helps get the channel off the ground.

ETA: I ended up changing the thumbnail to a more serious and quizzical look. Please give your feedback! Thanks
