Taylor Pearson has spent the last decade researching and writing about how you can better invest your time and money in an uncertain world. He's the author of The End of Jobs: Money, Meaning and Freedom Without the 9-to-5, which illustrates how advancements in modern technology and a rapidly changing job market have made entrepreneurship the safest way to meaningful work, financial freedom, and economic resiliency.
I read The End of Jobs two years ago, and it was part of the catalyst for me to leave the U.S and begin living abroad.
In this interview, Taylor and I discuss:
- Why Taylor became obsessed with navigating an uncertain world
- What's changed since Taylor first published The End of Jobs in 2015, and how Covid-19 will affect the job market moving forward
- The power of apprenticeships + how to get them
- The importance of developing useful skills and willingness to do "schlep work"
- The thing most people don't ask Taylor about the way he views the world
