  <description>&lt;p&gt;Nick's Book is Done and he's actually holding it during this episode. This calls for a celebration!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But the celebration quickly moves into what is next for the book and where all of this can go in 2019 and beyond.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Kent is still worried that Able Cells isn't a business and wants $50,000 or so to make it one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We set some basic 2019 goals and decide to take Christmas off... but you knew that :) &lt;/p&gt;
