Mind Your Business Radio Show

The show is all about the business of business, and how to start something that can free you from the daily grind. Expect the show to be real, raw and unfiltered. The show is absolutely "NSFW" (not suitable for work) not because of the language, but because of the overarching theme of "Quit your job... Start Your Life."

Launching Points : 50 Careers That Don't Require A College Degree
College is the not right choice for everyone. It wasn't for Bill Gates, who dropped out of college with Paul Allen to launch Microsoft. It wasn't for Karl Rove, who was the Senior Advisor to President George W. Bush. College wasn't the right path for Rush Limbaugh, Tyra Banks, or Simon Cowell. It wasn't the right place for Richard Branson, Henry Ford, or Ray Crock (the founder of McDonalds) who changed the world with no college degree. College may not be the right place... for you. Launching Points profiles fifty careers that don't require a four year college degree. It's packed with insights on job descriptions, salary data and tips on jump starting each career path. It's not exhaustive, but intentionally short so that you can listen quickly, get some ideas, and start planning the direction YOU want to go in. It was written for the high school student in search of ideas on alternatives to college (and college debt). It was recorded for the nearly 50% of enrolled college freshman nationwide that drop out before they ever earn a diploma. It was recorded for the experienced job seeker in need of some encouragement and a new perspective on the job market. It was recorded for you. Use it to help discover your Launching Points.
