Must-Read: Be Better with Money

Posted September 18, 2013

Here’s one of the biggest conundrums of life: You have, without a doubt, a limited amount of time on this planet. At some point, you will be gone. At that point, what you’d like to happen as you lie on your deathbed, is to not have any regrets for wasting your time here. This is

The Self-Made Man: Anthony Volodkin

Posted August 29, 2013

Many of this generation’s entrepreneurs are younger people with tons of programming/web design experience under their belt, gained from childhood interest or internships or both. This week’s Self Made Man, Hype Machine founder Anthony Volodkin (whose name could be a minor character in a Chekov play), didn’t have either of those things and he still

Must-Read: Stop Wasting Money

Posted August 12, 2013

Let your money work for you. That phrase is, for better or worse, the end-all, be-all of financial advice. Which certainly makes sense. If you have some money then you want to be able to use that to make more money. But one of the ways to make money, in a way, is certainly not

The Self-Made Man: Greg Ginn

TSB understands that risk is an important element of successful entrepreneurship. Whether it’s financial risk, personal risk, or some combination thereof, practically every self-starter worth their Forbes profile has rolled the dice and started their own business or brand, knowing that they could fail and be sent back to square one with little to show

The Self-Made Man: A Bunch of Wisdom

Posted July 25, 2013

We profile a lot of successful individuals here at TSB, but this week I thought I’d take a different approach and compile the business/life advice that helped some self-made men reach their goals, and then reach beyond them. This is important, because it’s easy to get lost in one person’s biography and feel that, because

How Important is Money in a Relationship?

Posted July 18, 2013

I liked what Alex Matlock wrote in his recent blog on needing to be rich in order to have success with women. I agree that you don’t need piles of money to get laid…in fact, it’s quite easy to pick up chicks with a minimum outlay of cash. The main ingredients you need are confidence and

The Self-Made Man: Sean Belnick

Posted June 20, 2013

A decent amount of the successful men profiled in this Self Made Men column were precocious go-getters as kids, but they were still kids, and they generally didn’t start getting serious and making money until they were at least old enough to vote. This week’s column is a first, because our subject—BizChair.com founder Sean Belnick—started

Must-Read: Work For Yourself

Posted May 20, 2013

One of the best decisions of our life was, one day, about five years ago, quitting our job just to work freelance full-time. It was a risk — at that time we weren’t making nearly enough to survive — but the thought process was that we could work for ourselves, whenever we want, and maybe

The Self-Made Man: John Mackey

Posted May 9, 2013

The last time Whole Foods co-founder/former CEO John Mackey made the news, it was for his controversial statements about global warming and Obama’s health care plan. Take those however you will, but there’s more to Mackey than that. The story of how Whole Foods became the Starbucks of organic food (and I mean that in

The Self-Made Man: David Tran

Posted May 2, 2013

Huy Fong Foods—makers of Sriracha hot sauce—isn’t your typical start-up business. They don’t have an official Facebook page or Twitter account, they don’t seek out much press, and they don’t even advertise their hot sauce beyond a plain-spoken website. In a business climate that preaches nonstop consumer outreach, Huy Fong stands calmly aloof from their

The Self-Made Man: Max Chautin

Posted April 11, 2013

It’s easy to get the impression that tech and social media are the only worthwhile fields for entrepreneurs to get involved in. I mean, look how many of TSB’s Self Made Man columns are about ambitious programmers and web gurus. It’s not an intentional bias by any means, but the Internet is still a fairly
