Make "A Couple Million" Without Ruining Your Life (with Steve Chou)

Steve Chou has made lots of money. He didn't do it by "following his passion." He sold hankerchiefs with his wife, who wanted to quit her job. Together they created businesses that rolled in cash. But Steve will be the first to tell you that the method he used was flawed. Today he'll dive into his mastakes and share kes to help you start your own business and make "a couple million" a year (Steve's number) without ruining your life, your relationships, or resorting to the "hustle culture" that chews up and spits out so many would-be entrepreneurs every year. In our headline segment, we'll dive into the automation craze. Chat-GPT is doing homework, writing ad copy, creating books...what can't automation do? The government is casting it's gaze on automation and has issues some strong warnings. We'll share those AND what you should think about when you're considering automation (or recommendations that come from automation) in the future. Of course, we'll also wind up the TikTok minute, Doug's trivia, and much more!
