Summary

Today, 54% of college graduates regret getting a degree. Over 70% of Americans hate their jobs. And 2 out of 3 Americans will never be able to stop working and retire. Staggering statistics, right?

My guest today, Jeff Lerner, says there is an alternative to the cycle of school, college debt, 401k, and retirement that so many Americans get sucked into. And this is from a guy who went from being a broke musician to a multi-millionaire practicing what he’s preaching! Jeff reveals how the failings of our education, employment, and retirement systems have opened doors most people didn't even know existed. Plus, he shares strategies you can use to escape the broken system and create your dream life in the modern world.
