Sun Hat it’s obvious that most of his business is based in New York, he literally has a brick and mortar in manhattan. As far as social distancing goes, he’s been in business for 30 years.

Steven has the same passion my Dad had in being a seafood provider in NYC. My father ran a small store on 50 Mott St from the 1950's-1970s. He was down at the Fulton fish market by 5:30 am to have his truck loaded with the days seafood. He taught me to scale and gut fish just like Steven did in his video, big scissors and all. Steven's connection with his customers and product brought back memories of my Dad. Bravo Steven!

Yes a select few live their lives like this. Work 12 to 15 hours a day for about 20 years save everything , invest everything and retire early. The smart ones retire at 40 years old and manage their passive income and trade stocks while traveling 8 months out of the year. 3 months in Italy , 3 months in Mexico , 2 months in the phillipines. The key is to get out financially ahead and enjoy life before too much time passes by. The only thing is you need financial success in order to live this life and it doesn’t come easy at a younger age As not many people have this dedication and work ethic. .

i always love these interviews. there's one thing that i always notice in these people- its that they are extremely good in their craft. im 30, almost 31, and im still trying to find my passion/craft in life to pursue... it's getting late for me :\ and i always have high respect for these guys in the trade no matter the product- cell phone screens, lobsters, truffle, whatever.

This is what it takes. Hard work, dedication and always going that extra mile for the customer. Hes a Boss but he still goes and hand delivers to his customer. His brothers goes out at 10pm until 2am to “buy” the seafood from the main markets. The value and profit is in the buying. Then the other brother deals with the clients. When you come from nothing you get forged like a well made sword 🗡 with hard work. NEVER give up. Keep grinding and trying and do the best job. Take care of the customer and it will pay off sooner or later. Well done and congrats guys for your business success. All the best

yes great product.. only sad thing is to think how much lobster just this man sells... knowing that a lobster can be 150+ years old... its not like u can expect to find a lot of them to grow so big because of demand... most will never grow beyond like 5-10. and then u have a american just throwing 3 of them on a bun... like tf..
