You won't win 95% of the time. But the 5% of the time you do win, you can get some extra money. Seriously, all it takes is like a minute every couple of days to jump on the SNKRS app to try and cop some sneakers and you could make an extra $100 every month. Try it. Thanks for listening!

This is my day one episode about Non Fungible Tokens which I know almost nothing about. Enjoy! Thanks for listening!

Are we seeing the early stages of the downfall of college as an institution? For many years, college has dominated as the next step for high school graduates and we may be seeing it lose some steam. As employers start to look for real skills when re-evaluating their businesses, going to college for career paths where it's not needed might be a thing of the past. Thank you for listening!

Welcome to the Figure it Out podcast! I'm Ryan, and this podcast focuses on my fascination with business and entrepreneurship as a college kid. I do my best to post episodes multiple times per week to provide you with a young point of view on growing up and trying to figure it out in this crazy world. Thank you for listening!

I couldn't just ignore the events currently going on in the world and today's episode is my PSA for the future of our country. We are the future and the events going on right now apply to all of us. The largest takeaway here is not that one should ignore the backgrounds and appearances of others, but rather we should strive to be as educated as possible and embrace those differences. People have always feared that which they don't understand, so why don't we do our best to understand and educate ourselves. Thank you so much for listening!

On this fine Thursday I rant about how I feel in regards to learning both within formal education and outside of it. I believe that learning is massively important no matter what goals you have and no matter what career you plan on.  Thank you so much for listening!

Today, I share my thoughts about happiness mostly within careers and jobs. The system can get pretty confusing by telling us one thing and teaching us another and that can make lots of kids grow up and do something they don't enjoy since it's what they're supposed to do. I hate this and I go more into detail throughout the website.  Thank you for listening!
