Captain Smart, during the interview, noted that the company is in the furniture sales industry.

Giving further details, the renowned broadcaster noted that he had employed people who were paid weekly instead of the usual monthly system.

He explained that this was to ensure that none of his employees ran out of money at any point in the month.

"So, when we agree that I pay you this amount, I divide it and give you a quarter of it every week," Captain Smart stated.
