In this episode I chat with Brandon from MadFientist.com about deprivation, happiness, meaning, and why it's never been easier in history to reach financial independence. After following the FI path alone for over 2 years I discovered Brandon's blog in 2013, immediately reading all of his posts. His writing on tax, spending, and life optimization guided me on my own FI journey and I'm grateful to now call him a friend. Brandon is one of the 10 people who reached financial independence before 35 featured in the book Financial Freedom: A Proven Path to All the Money You Will Ever Need.

In this episode, my friends Logan and Matt join me to discuss three different ways we're making money online: e-commerce, content, and SaaS. Logan runs a portfolio of successful Amazon FBA and e-commerce brands, Matt recently launched a rapidly growing app, and I own a portfolio of content websites. Making money online is becoming more competitive, but there are still great opportunities if you're willing to think differently and keep experimenting.

In this episode, I chat with Haroon Mokhtarzada, serial entrepreneur and CEO of Rocket Money, about how he sold his first company Webs.com for $125 million, how he escaped feeling lost after the acquisition, what financial independence means to him, and how he grew and sold his second company TrueBill to Rocket Companies for $1.5 Billion. We also dive into the most important metrics that matter in any business if you want to grow, as well as the opportunities and challenges of taking on outside investors. Haroon shares his simple framework for whether it makes sense to get investors or keep your freedom and more. I loved this conversation and I'm excited to bring more entrepreneurs on the show.

I'm honored to have Charles Eisenstein on the show, where we dive into money, consciousness, climate, giving, and more. His book Sacred Economics: Money, Gift, & Society in the Age of Transition is one of the best books I've read. I couldn't put it down. I also enjoyed his book The Yoga of Eating. Charles is an inspiring teacher, speaker, and author who writes about a diverse range of topics, including the history of human civilization, ecology, and economics.
