“There’s only so much coupon cutting and budgeting you can do.”

The last time I took questions from you guys I had such an overwhelming response!

I felt it was hard to choose questions to answer, and I saw a common theme that I wasn’t able to address last time: earning more money.

Cutting coupons and pinching pennies might help a little, but it will never make you a millionaire.

In the amount of time you spend clipping out vouchers just to save $50 you probably could have used your passion and purpose to make $500.

Since I know what it’s like to go from rags to riches multiple times in my life, I wanted to give you some advice from what I’ve learned along the way.

I hand picked some of the best questions about earning more money for this episode, ranging from finding a financial advisor, to starting a podcast, to becoming a speaker and so much more.
