Podcast appearances and mentions of derek magill

Derek Magill of tryPathly.com and the Nakamoto Studies Institute is special guest on this episode of CoinSpice.io 's flagship podcast, Milk. He discusses his love of money from a young age, along with being famous in the ecosystem for taking down ugly trolls -- so effective, he was dubbed The Troll Hunter.

The writings of Satoshi Nakamoto go well beyond the vaunted Bitcoin White Paper. There are emails and chats, along with commentaries from early players in the space that need to be preserved. Thankfully, they are. Derek Magill is founder, archivist of the Nakamoto Studies Institute, and he's guest for this fun episode of CoinSpice.io 's flagship podcast, Milk: Soothing Crypto's Burn with C. Edward Kelso, Editor-in-Chief.

Derek Magill of tryPathly.com joins C. Edward Kelso again for a penetrating CoinSpice.io podcast episode of Milk. Magill is a bit of sage in the ecosystem. He hovers around the space, writes highly cited essays, and defends his position well. He is of the belief that money deserves a mind to match it. In other words, if cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin Cash (BCH) cannot survive a silly fork debate, then it deserves to fade away -- and he's very, very pro BCH!

Happy anniversary, baby! The 31st of October of this year marks the tenth anniversary of the Bitcoin White Paper. CoinSpice gets views from four considerate figures in the space: Bitcoin's Emperor Daniel Krawisz, Derek Magill from tryPathly.com and the Nakamoto Studies Institute, founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Anti-Media, Nick Bernabe, and Vin Armani from CoinText and Countermarkets share their insights on what 10 years means, and what we might expect in the future.

Derek Magill of tryPathly.com and the Nakamoto Studies Institute joins C. Edward Kelso to muse about their shared admiration for novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand, and how she would've loved crypto ... and probably would've ended up in Tokyo working with Roger Ver to promote Bitcoin Cash.

Professional contrarian Derek Magill joins us to discuss Tether, American Express buying anti-bitcoin advertising, his thoughts on the Binance and Chainanalysis partnership and other hot topics in the crypto world. Big media drama with stablecoins, tether in particular American Express promoting a dirty war on Bitcoin 51 percent attacks on altcoins becoming a spectator sport;  Someone in China thinks "USDT sucks" Derek's thoughts on a potential BCH fork Global security firm to offer crypto storage solutions

He had to decide between a dinner with Ron Paul and his college finals. Derek chose the former and never returned to the University of Michigan. Just 25, he is a successful entrepreneur and writer. He is currently helping other ambitious young minds skip college and start their career right away as the director of marketing at Praxis. Listen and learn how to supercharge your career.

55 minutes Mance welcomes the founder of the Nakamoto Studies Institute Derek Magill to the show. Derek founded the institute with the goal of curating, annotating, and popularizing Satoshi's original writings and contextualizing them within Bitcoin's future as BCH. Derek gives us a Bitcoin and Blockchain 101 while going into the history of both up to the present day.

Episode o4 That Putrifying Pestilence Known as The Parent PLUS Loan Minute 1:  It all begins with the FAFSA.  You will be expected to take out a Parent PLUS loan even if you get a zero EFC letter. Minute [2:30] A Parent PLUS Loan is a loan to your student that you are obligated to repay. If you don’t, your income tax refund can be garnished and your Social Security can be seized. Minute 4-7: If you need a Parent PLUS Loan, you likely can’t afford to repay a Parent PLUS loan. Parent PLUS Loans are expensive. They are not like direct subsidized loans, where the interest is covered by the American taxpayer during the time they are in college. The Parent PLUS Loan is much more expensive. It has a 4.25% origination fee. Interest for 2018 is set at 7%. Minute [6:20]:  Average student takes 6 years to graduate; therefore, if your student takes the average amount of time to graduate and you take out $5000 per year, you will owe $30,000 at the end of their six years in college. Minute [7:00]: The student may be given a check for excess loan proceeds. If the student doesn’t need the money for tuition that semester, they may blow the money on a beach vacation or shopping and you won’t even know! Minute 8: Loan payments are due immediately, not upon graduation. If you can’t start making payments immediately, you can’t afford this loan. It’s true you can get a deferment on payments (not interest), but if the loan is not paid on time, your wages can be garnished, your income tax refund can be seized, and all except $750 of your Social Security can be seized.  Minute [10:30]-[13:30]:  What is the interest on $30,000? Roughly $12,000 plus $1,300 of origination fees. That is a monthly payment of $358.00. You need to ask yourself if you can start paying this money back today. If the answer is no, then the answer is clear, you cannot afford these loans. When you see the loan amount you are expected to take out in your student’s freshman year, you need to multiply that amount by six. The average number of years a student now takes to graduate.

Email us with questions if you are unsure as to which calculator to use to figure out your loan cost. Still don’t believe you have educational options?

This week’s episode of Educationeering features a radical pioneer in alternative education.

Part Two of Two, Please Make Sure You Heard Part One! As as follow up to our conversation on dropping out of college, Derek Magill and I explore how to "build your own credential" in lieu of a degree. Derek explains why he believes such a self-directed credential is superior to the four-year degree, and he illustrates how you go on to signal that credential in the market. Derek is just twenty-four years old, but he is already enjoying great success as an entrepreneur, freelancer and writer. He also currently serves as the Director of Marketing for Praxis. Derek dropped out of the University of Michigan during his sophomore year because he "was not finding the experience valuable towards (his) intellectual and professional goals." He adds: "Over the last four years or so, my decision to leave has been vindicated. I’ve got a wonderful life, a great career, and I’ve gotten to spend 3-4 extra years pursuing my values on my own terms." Also discussed: - don't let your interests "sit in study mode" - How did Derek land a Director of Marketing job in your early 20s? - Creating your own job "build a digital paper trail" - the limits of resumes - How to establish your online presence Derek also answers the following listener questions: (thank you Michael Erwin) What limits does he see to the Praxis model? As in, industries, careers, and further development. What blowback has he experienced in trying to build these partnerships with businesses/startups in regards to their attitude to non-degreed candidates and replacing the college credential (at least for the Praxis participants)? What has he learned in building Praxis that those older in life and career could benefit from? What struggles have there been with government and establishment ed in building Praxis, specifically in the frame of it being a college alternative?

Part one of Two Derek Magill joins me to discuss his personal journey through and beyond dropping out of college. Derek is just twenty-four years old, but he is already enjoying great success as an entrepreneur, freelancer and writer. He also currently serves as the Director of Marketing for Praxis. Derek dropped out of the University of Michigan during his sophomore year because he "was not finding the experience valuable towards (his) intellectual and professional goals." He adds: "Over the last four years or so, my decision to leave has been vindicated. I’ve got a wonderful life, a great career, and I’ve gotten to spend 3-4 extra years pursuing my values on my own terms." My questions include - How did he have such clear personal and professional goals at such a young age? - Background: Where did his political and philosophical grounding come from, including an intense interest in alternative education? - When did he realize he'd made the right choice to drop out? - What made him so confident that he could teacher himself better than the University of Michigan professors could? We move on to general advice for young people who are struggling with this decision about dropping out, including tips on talking to parents, mindset, and the importance of proving yourself to yourself first.

Derek Magill guest hosts this episode of Forward Tilt to share a story from a recent conversation with an aspiring brewer and entrepreneur.    This was a college freshman with the goal of opening a microbrewery--in his first year of a four-year college program studying Political Science. Taking on debt and spending a massive amount of time attending lectures on political science, when his goal was to be an entrepreneur in the beer business.    Stories like this are not uncommon. There are young people on college campuses all over the country spending tens of thousands of dollars on annual tuition for programs that have absolutely nothing to do with what they want in the long term. But still, these students haven’t questioned the idea that college is a necessary prerequisite to life.    What if you stop before making the college decision to ask what if there is a better way? What if there is an alternative? And what if I can do it better myself?   In this episode: Political Science degree as a prerequisite to running a microbrewery Will college help you achieve your goals? There are other paths outside of four-year college degrees How can you learn, establish yourself, and make connections without taking on debt  Want more Forward Tilt?

What you are going to LEARN in this episode: If college is still a smart investment How much entrepreneurs benefit from attending college What employers really think of your diploma The importance of building an “experience portfolio” Today’s guest is Derek Magill, college dropout turned online marketing entrepreneur, author and business strategist. Like most high school students, Derek was told that college was the absolute best idea to ensure he lands a job and makes a “good living”. During his second year of college, Derek started to realize that the most valuable and enjoyable parts of his life were when he wasn’t in the classroom. He started a small t-shirt company and made a few thousand dollars while in college. Before long he felt like he was creating far more value in the world by selling shirts than he was by writing essays to only turn in to his professor. He says, “you are never actually creating anything or building anything valuable during your college career.” Rather than sitting in class and continuing to learn more and more theory, Derek recommends building a website, learning how to sell something online, or maybe start a podcast or blog. By the time your peers are graduating from college, you’ll have a portfolio of experiences and assets that you’ve built for yourself. I can assure you that, as someone who’s hired dozens of people, this type of “portfolio of experience” is waaaaaaay more valuable than a diploma. We end the show with a discussion about why “college dropouts” have such a negative stigma and how college may be just an extension of our under-performing public high schools. If you are a highschool or college student, then don’t miss the Derek’s advice towards the end about taking a “gap year” and learn from the real world rather than only experiencing professors, textbooks and exams.

Derek Magill discontinued his studies at the University of Michigan -- where he was a member of Young Americans for Liberty, by the way -- in order to go into business for himself and to do work he found rewarding. We discuss the ins and outs of all this in today's episode.
