  • Great stories

    The reason for this podcast alone is inspiring...use your talent in creative ways to get out of debt. But also hearing these stories is great fun and I check back often for new installments, and whether it’s about radio DJ’ing from a campus to interviewing with hackers, I always learn something new.
