Summary

Our guest this episode is the notorious Mr. Bald from Bald and Bankrupt on YouTube!

These risks have paid off as Bald actually filed for bankruptcy in the UK before he began filming but is now a certified millionaire thanks to his YouTube channel. Find out how he finally put these funds to use after having them just sit in a zero interest bank account for years.
