Whether you’re in prison or out already, how often do you feel the pressure to provide, whether you’re just supporting you or taking care of your whole family? As Travis says, “It’s never a shortage of resources, it’s always a shortage of resourcefulness.” And in today’s Internet-focused world, you’ve got no end of resources literally in the palm of your hand.

On this episode of ConvictEd Life, Zach and Travis dive deep on how to start making money to provide for you and yours coming out of prison - why entrepreneurship and side hustles on your own time are great options for felons, putting in the time and reps to actually master that business idea you’re pursuing, how to start exploring the investing world, and strategies you can use to turn a little money into a lot fairly quickly. Join the conversation to begin thinking about ways you can take what you already have and multiply it many times over.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why a bunch of homeruns straight out the gate is not really what you need (and how to build more sustainable success in the long term)
• How to find a job online that fits in with your skill set and your schedule, and gives you the momentum you need to build a more lasting business
• What Travis did with a relatively small upfront investment in a handful of vending machines when he got out of prison - and how to make that idea work for you, too
• And much more!

Favorite Quote:

“You feel this weight, this burden on your shoulders to provide, right? And so, when you can provide on your own and you can start to build something, build some momentum, some cash flow, it buffers the bank account, but more than that, it gives you confidence.”

• Travis Richey
