Welcome back to another episode of Finding Freedom! I'm your host, Lee Mosler and today I'm thrilled to bring you a two-part episode with a comedian turned internet millionaire, Tom Antion from the Screw the Commute Podcast.
I've long believed that it's not freedom if you're spending 80% of your life on a job and I know Tom feels the same way. Tom has never had a traditional job but has used his ability as a comedian, and knowledge of people, to make millions of dollars online for the past 23 years.
I was first introduced to Tom while in Washington D.C. at the Military Influencer Conference. And instead of coming off full of himself, Tom was one of the most laid back people there. He was simply there to help those looking for guidance. While he could have been there pushing his products and services like most others were, he was there to serve Veterans as best he could.
Tom and I have kept in touch since then and when I started putting together this podcast, he was more than happy to lend his expertise to an industry he's been in while most of us were too young to even give a crap.
Tom and I talk about how to share your knowledge to get started while keeping your startup costs low. We also talk about the number one skill when starting out and the fanaticism you need if you want to be great. And, it doesn't stop there. We continue to have a conversation about ways to make your hobbies tax deductible and even how a physical business can help create income while not actively working.
So sit back and have a listen, laugh with us, and take some notes as Tom freely gives his knowledge.
Here's my talk with Tom from the Screw the Commute podcast.
