John Schneider and David Auten, collectively known as “The Debt Free Guys” are two 30-something professionals who found themselves in a deep dark debt hole just a few years ago living life the way that they “assumed” life was supposed to be: Dinners out, expensive clothes, living at full speed, and at times keeping up with the Joneses. At this point in their lives, they were living in a basement apartment, dreaming about buying vacation homes in faraway cities, and facing the reality of being $51,000 in credit card debt, essentially living day-to-day on borrowed money.

At the very beginning of the year, I embarked on this crazy journey of putting together a podcast that was focused on giving people hope and direction on Building A Bigger Life. My reasoning was pretty simple - it seemed like a vast majority of the folks I interacted with were asking “is there more to life?”. Thoreau has a quote about most men leading lives of quiet desperation, and never wanting to be in that camp myself, I started seeking out and interviewing people that live most extraordinary lives. Folks that were doing more of what they love to do and less of what they have to do on a daily basis.

On this episode of Build A Bigger Life is a guy who makes his living teaching other people how to make one of their own -- on the side.
