E.J. Williams · 2021
58/100
👎 Skip It
E.J. Williams' own story — a medically discharged veteran who built a solar brokerage — gives this some heart, and it's nice that it directly tackles the 'I don't have enough money' excuse. But most of the buzz Penny found reads as syndicated promo rather than independent critique, and a '5 easy steps' format usually means surface-level rather than the depth serious beginners need.
