156: Meet Nick Bond: Age 22, College Graduate, Unemployable

#156: Unemployable by choice, Nick Bond, age 22, is a recent college graduate that is building his own real estate business rather than getting a job. School grades aren't any more predictive of success than rolling a pair of dice. I discuss Boston College research that supports this. Valedictorians don't become billionaires. Millionaires have an average college GPA of 2.9. Is it worth it to go to college? College is more expensive in the U.S. than anywhere else in the world. Yet at the same time, the value of a college degree has dropped. Once you got out of school, you found yourself "making things up" as you go. Later, you find out that everybody is "making things up". Today's guest, Nick Bond isn't taking the j-o-b route that his friends are. He was influenced by his parents to be more entrepreneurial. Nick has begun raw land investing / flipping.

Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
