I created a comedy website that parodied popular TV shows through abridged scripts --- this self-funded labor of love was made possible by 5 hilarious writers. They deservedly earned above-industry pay, as opposed to the media industry's typical compensation of "unpaid, yet invaluable experience" :)

Invaluable introduction to recruiting.

Hourly, transparent, and unbiased financial planning for the overlooked & underserved - we’re breaking down the barriers to quality financial advice!The financial planning industry is not structured to help the people who need it most. Why not? Let’s do the math 🥱 Given the following Financial Advisor (FA) industry standards:• The standard fee structure of roughly 1% of Assets under Management (AUM)• Requirement to earn $500K+ in annual fees, meaning the FA needs $50 Million of AUM• Only 24 hours in a day, limiting an FA to around 100 clients (if served effectively)…therefore, a family needs about $500,000 to invest ($50 Million divided by 100 clients). How can people lacking this wealth receive quality financial advice? The hourly fee model allows financial planners to help, regardless of how much money you have.

Glorified used car sales.

I created a used textbook exchange to help college students save money in the face of the mighty Textbook Industrial Complex.
