About this episode

Simon Squibb shares his journey from being a homeless school dropout to a multi-millionaire and discusses his mission to help others succeed in business.

You’ve very likely seen videos of serial entrepreneur, viral sensation and maker of dreams Simon Squibb giving away cash and advice on the streets to help kickstart people’s business dreams. He’s on the pod today to share exactly how he went from dropping out of school, to becoming a multi-millionaire. Simon opens up about sleeping rough at 15 after being kicked out, building a gardening business with zero money or experience, making serious cash before most people finish school, and eventually retiring at 40.

With a goal of helping 10 million strangers launch a successful business, and revamping the current education system, Simon is both knowledgeable and ambitious.
