Crowd-funding, or crowd-sourcing as it’s more commonly known, is a topic that I’ve always found fascinating. Joining me to discuss the crowd economy is a good buddy of mine and an expert in the field, Mr. Scott Picken from Wealth Migrate.

Before we wrap up our series on the Five Freedoms, host Niel Malan introduces a bonus topic: Physical Freedom.

Why do we want what we want? Why do we want a certain car, more money, good schools for our children, a better physique, etc?

Many people say it's going to help them achieve something. But actually it’s about a feeling – it's going to make them feel successful, accomplished, like they are making a difference.

In this episode, host Niel Malan and his wife Candy talk about Location Freedom.

Imagine you could choose where you want to live because you do not have to worry about being near an office, being able to work from home (or anywhere in the world!), not being stuck in traffic every day, and being able to travel for pleasure or working holidays.

All of this is possible with a digital business.
