A Millennial Mind

#158 Become An Entrepreneur Without Quitting Your Job with Patrick J. McGinnis


Listen Later

In this episode of Millennial Mind I sit down with Patrick J. McGinnis, the originator of the term 'FOMO' (Fear of Missing Out).


Patrick shares his journey of coining 'FOMO' and discusses how it has evolved, particularly in the era of social media. The conversation then shifts to entrepreneurship, where Patrick introduces the concept of the '10% entrepreneur', detailing how individuals can invest their time, money, and expertise into entrepreneurial ventures without fully letting go of their day jobs. The discussion covers the importance of understanding business, knowing the people, adding value, and learning through experience. Patrick's insights provide a valuable blueprint for aspiring entrepreneurs on how to diversify their income streams and build wealth strategically.
