T-shirts. If you're an entrepreneur in this day and age, I'm willing to bet that at least 90 percent of you have thought about selling t-shirts at some point in your life. It's usually thought of as one of those quick buck entrepreneurial ventures like selling candy in middle school. But what if it isn't? Our guest today took his t-shirt business to the next level with Merch by Amazon. Have you heard of it? We're joined by RJ, an online entrepreneur and digital nomad who went from 0 to 7k profit- yes, profit- in three months through taking a tactical approach that ultimately took one of his t-shirt designs to the 50th Best Selling shirt on Amazon. Using the funds that he made from his business, RJ ended up traveling and taking fishing trips all over the world. Today, RJ continues his digital nomad lifestyle, while he prepares to launch his podcast from corporate to coconuts. I like the way that sounds.

Like many others, Johnny has followed the usual process which involves, going to college, get a degree, and get a good corporate job.

On todays episode of The Expat Money Show, our next guest has been a full-time digital nomad and expat for the past 15 years, travelling throughout more than 60 countries and has helped thousands of people move, retire, or work abroad. At an early age, her mission was to discover an alternative to the typical “American Dream” 9 to 5 way of life. She always struggled with the simple question: ‘What do you want to be when you grow up?' and decided that one day she would invent her own job, and that she did. Today, her goal is to help others become location independent and stay that way, for as long as their heart desires. Today, Kristin Wilson is living full time in her home state of Florida and absolutely loving it. Costa Rica was home for 8 years and Nicaragua for 1 year. Travelling for long periods of time have become the norm for Kristin and in this interview, she walks us through all of the ups and downs of becoming a digital nomad and why choosing this path can be so empowering.

This week I sit down with digital nomad and founder of the Nomad Cruise to talk about the future of conferences and cruises for digital nomads. We talk about why we both decided to take a financial loss and give 100% refunds for both the Nomad Cruise and the Nomad Summit, and what we plan on doing in the future for our events. It's a good insight on how in person events are run, the finances behind them, and the secrets behind why early bird tickets are so cheap and why door tickets are so much more expensive.

Three more of our past podcast guests graciously shared some words of advice to help us cope and make the most out of the COVID-19 epidemic. Giacomo Arcaro from Ep113 Don’t Chase the Money Giacomo Arcaro is one of the most important European growth hackers, with more than 140,000 “crypto-followers” and has been featured in the Financial Times, Forbes, Wired, and the Los Angeles Times. He’s had 2-million-euro exits with two start-ups, CercaClienti.it and SocialAutomation.online, and is the founder of Black Marketing Guru. We need to understand that during the COVID-19 crisis, we are going to face a low touch economy where you have to consider a lot of factors. If you have a business based in a small area with a lot of people, you need to reconsider reinventing your business so that it remains standing if this crisis goes for a year or two. One way of reinventing your business, for example, is running it on social media platforms such as Instagram or Facebook Live. COVID-19 has not changed our lives; instead, it has anticipated the digital revolution. Johnny FD from Ep134 Stay on Track Johnny FD (Fighter-Divemaster) quit his job at corporate giant Honeywell in 2007 to move to Thailand, travel the world, and work as a professional scuba diver. He has since written two books: 12 Weeks in Thailand: The Good Life on the Cheap and Life Changes Quick (both on Amazon), started multiple six-figure online businesses, and since has been interviewed and featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Fast Company, Entrepreneur, and the BBC. If you don't get out of this quarantine with new skills, new knowledge, a side business or side hustle started, then you never lacked the time you lacked discipline. But if you were working hard and didn’t have enough time to rest and you really need to, take a break. Lay around, do nothing, and relax. But if you are only laying on your bed scrolling through your smartphone and just eating and complaining, you need to get out of bed and make some changes and money. You can start by treating your stay at home as the standard working days; the only difference is that you are not getting outside. Now is the time to do things that you usually don’t have time to do, for example, learning a foreign language, reading, learning a new skill, etc. There's going to be a lot of money to be made and a lot of money to be lost. Make your decisions wisely so that you’re on the money-making side. Nicolas Rabener from Ep55 Diversification: An Easy Way to Reduce Your Investing Risk Nicolas Rabener is the founder of FactorResearch, which provides quantitative solutions for factor investing. Previously he created Jackdaw Capital, an award-winning quantitative investment manager focused on equity market neutral strategies. Unlike the Global Financial Crisis in 2008, low volatility smart beta ETFs in the US have declined as much as the stock market and therefore failed to provide the desired downside protection. Tail risk strategies are currently attractive because some of them generated outsized returns in March when the stock markets crash. If you’re considering buying portfolio protection, it’s going to be very expensive because, just like insurance, portfolio protection is best purchased when it is not required.

To pay the bills, he's a partner at AgoraRDM, a real estate development and management consulting firm. In his spare time, he produces the Miles to Go and Boarding Area podcasts. Back in January 2018, Mike gave a talk at Nomad Summit. The original title was: Coworking – Accelerated Serendipity, Motivation, and Community. The intention was to provide attendees something different from the more instructional presentations of HOW to run a business as a digital nomad - you can watch it here on YouTube. What Mike didn’t realize at the time was that he was actually providing tips, tricks and instructions on what NOT to do. Just by using his real-life as an example. This wasn’t the biggest audience Mike had spoken in front of, but it was the first time he’d be telling a story, rather than presenting industry trends or data. That story ended up becoming “How Coworking Saved My Life”. Since then, I’ve heard from many people letting me know how they finally decided to go to a coworking space. And, how coworking really did help them, whether it be personally or professionally.

Johnny FD (Fighter-Divemaster) grew up in San Francisco, in the US state of California, and quit his job at corporate giant Honeywell in 2007 to move to Thailand, travel the world and work as a professional scuba diver. While in the Kingdom, he started training and fighting professionally in Thai kickboxing. He has since written two books: 12 Weeks in Thailand: The Good Life on the Cheap and Life Changes Quick (both on Amazon), started multiple six-figure online businesses and since been has been interviewed and featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Fast Company, Entrepreneur, and the BBC. “The reason why it’s such a bad idea to leave money in cash is you’re guaranteed to be losing at least 2% due to inflation. So even if your money is technically safe in a checking account or savings account, and you’re not gaining interest, you’re not losing money, you are losing, you know, whatever the rate is, which is usually around 2%.” Johnny FD Support our sponsor Today’s episode is sponsored by the Women Building Wealth membership group, the complete proven step-by-step course to guide women from novice to competent investor. To learn more, visit: WomenBuildingWealth.net. Worst investment ever Johnny outlined a trio of mistakes Buying crypto and losing He named his most annoying investment ever was buying cryptocurrency and Bitcoin, and described the pain of seeing it crash. He still holds some Ripple because he simply hates selling it at a loss. He blames the Fear of Missing Out (FoMo) phenomenon for some of his exposure and relates the tale of buying in to Bitcoin when it was valued at US$18,000, just because of the FoMo effect amid the hype even against his gut feeling that it was not a good investment. Peer-to-peer lending ties up money Johnny also described getting into peer-to-peer lending via the Lending Club and finding out that it just tied his money up for five years. In that time, he just witnessed all the money he had disappear as loans defaulted one after another. He felt trapped and could not only not retrieve his money, but people were just flaking out on paying the funds back. He bemoaned the essentially and completely unsecured nature of the investment. Cash is not king in this context His number one of the trio though would be one big mistake he made that has recently been in the front of his mind – keeping money in cash or not investing it for the past few years. He did this based on the widespread idea that the market was due to go down “any day now” and that the world was due for another big crash. But, for the past two or three years, this crash is yet to happen, and he has lost the opportunity of all the potential gains he could have made on decent investments. He identified why it is a bad idea to leave money in cash is because you are guaranteed to be losing at least 2% due to inflation. “So even if your money is technically safe, in a checking account or savings account, and you’re not gaining interest, you’re not losing money, you are losing whatever the inflation rate is, which is usually around 2%.” Johnny FD Storing savings in cash means further losses The second part of loss in keeping money in cash is the forfeiture of potential gains, Johnny said. Even if the stock market fails to grow over a year, in the years he just kept cash, he was still missing out on dividends. They might have been another 1% or 2%. So right there, he explained, he was losing 2% on the inflation, 1% or 2% on the dividends that would have been paid out, which would have been either re-invested into your account, or cashed out on. Then there are the potential losses. On average, the stock market goes up by 7-8% a year, he pointed out. And he sat out on that, but also, in the past few years, the markets have gone up even more than that. So keeping a significant amount of money in cash was losing money, “almost like a bucket with a slow drip”. He said that it was almost to a point that he was holding on to a liability because the cash was not really an asset any more. Some lessons On crypto Don’t fall for the FoMo Just don’t feel like you’re missing out on any wild gains because you’re not jumping in to something that looks really attractive. Slow and steady wins the race Instead, his strategy now is slow and steady wins the race. If he can grow his portfolio by 7% a year for the rest of his life, he will be very happy with that. On peer-to-peer lending For such investments, Johnny is still a fun, but he has learned. He still has quite a chunk of money in this class, but now he only gets involved if the loans are secured by real estate. If the people he lends to (invests in) don’t pay of the loans, he repossesses their house, sells it and get his money back. Alternatives are there if we look for them and learn There are always alternatives. Would-be investors just have to listen to podcasts, ask people, do the research to figure out how much return you’re going to get. Why give people money in an unsecured loan when you can give it as a secured loan backed by property. The only market timing that is proven to work is time in the market No one – no matter how smart they are or how much they think they can predict the future – can predict the market. So it is better just to be in the market. Andrew’s takeaways On peer-to-peer lending Get collateral Make sure you are collateralizing anyone you lend to. Time in the market Allowing money to compound is critical People love to show the chart of the exponential rise in money in later years that comes after allowing your money to enjoy the fruits of compound interest. The sad news about such charts is that the compounding effect doesn’t really happen until 30 years later. Most people never start early enough to get to the 30 mark or stay in long enough to get the real impact of the compounding. Red light/green light Andrew has created an investment thinking tool thing called Red Light Green Light, which is just a very simple method based on the tools he has learned of how to look at a stock – his FVMR approach (fundamentals, valuation, momentum, risk) He says: Let’s take these four items, mix them together, and see what they can tell us. The only think he really wants to know is if the market is crazy high, he calls this Red Light, which means the market is too hot. And if it is flashing green, it is crazy low. It’s not a trading rule, it’s just an indication. If you’re someone who really gets stressed out about it, if you see it flash red, take the $800 (say you invest $1,000 a month) that you would normally put into equity and put it all into bonds. When you see it flash crazy green, maybe take the 200 that you would put in to bonds that particular month and put it into equity. This is a kind of a rules-based system that allows someone to control their emotions. And the fact of the matter is, it will only flash red or green, 10% of the time. “Regardless, don’t worry about where the stock market is, as long as you’re contributing over the long term.” Andrew Stotz Actionable advice “My only shopping is buying assets and no longer liabilities.” No. 1 goal for next the 12 months His goal now is to stay on track – to keep doing what he’s doing – with everything. He says everybody should strive to work out in the beginning what their game plan is, then educate themselves to figure out what makes us happy, not just investing goals. He includes fitness and health, regularly growing income and keeping expenses low. Parting words Learn from mistakes, don’t make your own and kick some butt.

Live Different Podcast: Business | Travel | Health | Performance
Johnny FD is a very successful location independent entrepreneur who left a well compensated job in California and moved to Thailand to follow his passions. He first worked as a scuba diver and later on became a professional Muay Thai fighter. In 2013, he started his first ever online venture, a book which he published on Amazon Kindle. He was also able to successfully replace his 9 - 5 income by starting a drop shipping store. After selling his drop shipping store for $60, 000, he invested the money into growing a passive income. Since then, Johnny has sold 3 more stores and has generated over a million dollars in income from his online businesses. The successful digital nomad has also been travelling the world (he has visited over 50 countries so far) and has been earning over six figures ($150, 000 or more) each year from his online ventures. Even while always on the move, Johnny is still actively investing and creating new streams of passive income. He chronicles and shares his experiences as a digital nomad and online entrepreneur on his blog JohnnyFD.com as well as on his podcast “Travel Like a Boss Podcast.” In his latest book Life Changes Quick, Johnny shared how he started his online business, how he got in the best shape of his life, and how to succeed in all aspects of life, among many others. Johnny also gives back by teaching others how to create their own income, monetise their online brand, and become their own boss through his course Income Boss. He also hosts the annual Nomad Summit conference. Thanks to his success as a digital nomad and entrepreneur, Johnny has been featured on the Business Insider, Entrepreneur, BBC, The Balance, Fast Company, and other publications. This week’s episode talks about how Johnny was able to afford living in Southeast Asia while working from his laptop, how he forms real and deep friendships despite being independent and constantly on the move, and what he recommends in terms of personal development. Johnny also shares his recommendations for those who are looking to make the big move, what passive income is and what it takes to set one up, and his advice for people who would like to live a lifestyle similar to his. On being a digital nomad, Johnny FD has this to say, “To be honest, I think the best life for a digital nomad is to not get too comfortable in one place yet balancing not travelling too often.”
Johnny FD talks about his latest travel adventures and begins by explaining why he loves the value destinations of Sri Lanka and Nepal in South Asia, Ukraine and Bansko, Bulgaria in Eastern Europe, and Lisbon, Portugal in Western Europe. Johnny then goes on to talk about his strategy for building businesses that can be automated, and building (or buying) assets that generate passive income. He debunks the most prominent myths about “passive income”, and describes his tenacious work ethic, morning routine, exercise and nutrition regimen, and explains what it really takes to build functional streams of passive income. He explains how he has now built a dozen streams of passive income that finance his lifestyle and world travel. He breaks down the details of how he does affiliate marketing, how he creates online courses, how he builds audience and monetizes his blog and his You Tube channel, and why he chooses a long-form interview format for his podcast even though it makes him less money. He also gives tips on avoiding “shiny-object syndrome” and spreading yourself too thin. Johnny then talks about his latest course “Income Boss”, who it is for and the value it provides. He then gives specific tips on personal brand building. Next he talks about why he loves travel so much, how he selects his locations, and how he designs his lifestyle. Finally, he explains why he expanded the Nomad Summit to take place twice a year on different continents, and why it now includes an optional post-Summit meet-up for up to a month afterwards and how you can participate.

i had a blast at the nomad summit this past weekend. your boy hit some major breakthroughs. in this episode of the podcast i reflect on my takeaways and the new direction i’m taking the biz. - i left the weekend feeling hella inspired to teach what i’m passionate about. i never have gotten super into it before because it felt like a huge task to put together a course. but it doesn’t have to be. the beauty of teaching online is that it doesn’t have to appeal to everyone. you can get granular with it. so instead of one huge inclusive course im going to start making smaller more niche classes i’m actually interested in. you could be a teacher too, that was one of the biggest lessons. it doesn’t have to be some technical shit. the crazy part is we all have so many skills we aren’t aware of because we take them for granted. what are you already really good at? chess? talking to girls? cooking? finding flight deals? i think so often with this we’re our own worst enemy. you don’t realize how much you have to offer until you see what other people want to learn. so take a leap, make something, and put it out there. why the hell not? for all my homies that want to learn to make beats or understand the production software just know the boy is cooking. if you want to learn Ableton let me know! i’ll hit you with the free course coupons when they’re done.

Most importantly how he made his first dollar even before what he's already shared. He talks about the life lessons he learned from his parents, his first job and how all of that played a part in preparing him for success.

I spoke at the 2016 Nomad Summit in Thailand on Ecommerce Marketing & Optimization. The title of the presentation was From 5 and 6 Figures a Month to 7 Figures and Beyond. The guys at the summit recorded full audio and video of all presentations so I figured this would make a great podcast episode. There's a whole bunch of stuff in this episode and it gets quite technical so we also have a copy of the presentation audio linked with the slides over on Youtube if you want to follow along.

Sam Marks sold his company for $100 Million Dollars and was one of the speakers at the 2016 Nomad Summit here in Chiang Mai, Thailand. In this episode we talk casually about how life has changed now that he is a multi millionaire, and why he's still living in cheap places like Chiang Mai instead of balling out in New York or Monaco. We talk about his recent travels to Antarctica and why he decided to jump in completely naked into freezing ice water. This episode is a chance to virtually hang out with a millionaire nomad, get a sense of what is important in life, and how even as a bootstrapping digital nomad we are already living similar lifestyles. We talk a bit about how he started in business and how you can as well, but since this episode is more about travel and lifestyle, if you want to listen to his complete business talk on how he started SkyCig and how they grew it into a hundred million dollar company , it'll be available for free on NomadSummit.com along with the rest of the talks.

Exactly a week ago, a bunch of Digital Nomads met up in Chiang Mai for beers and to hang out. It was organized by Hashtag Nomad and that event got me thinking. What if we all got together in a seminar and actually learned from each other. Would people even attend? Who would speak? Where would we meet? Instead of worrying about all of the answers, I booked a seminar room at the Ibis hotel for 120 people, put down the deposit, made a facebook page and got two volunteers on board to help me co-host the event which we scheduled for less than 10 days away. Listen to this episode to see how we got sponsored by Buffer, sold out within days, and now getting ready to host Chiang Mai's largest digital nomad meet up ever.
