About this episode

If you’re a fan of YouTube you’ll probably be familiar with the name Mark Tilbury, but if you’re not, Mark is self-made millionaire and social media educator who teaches business, personal finance and investing to millions and especially the next generation. Mark has an incredibly inspiring story. He left school at 16 with no qualifications or money, and his first job was making wooden trash cans, and it paid less than $2 per hour. He took the risk to start his own business and 30 years later he is a 7-figure CEO. In the conversation we talk about all things entrepreneurship including how to start your first physical or online business, what it really means to think like an entrepreneur and the power of passive income. Mark believes anyone can become wealthy by thinking like an investor & entrepreneur and hopefully this episode will show you how you can too.
