After My 3 Companies Failed, Working a 9-to-5 Felt Like The End of the World

from We Live to Build

After the 2008 crash ended all three of his companies at once, Oshri Cohen was completely burnt out and forced back into working a 9-to-5, which he says felt like "the end of the world". In this brutally honest interview, Oshri shares the story of losing everything, the subsequent depression and anxiety he faced in the corporate world, and the moment he knew he had to become a founder again. You'll learn his most important lesson, that cashflow is more important than your mother, and why he believes entrepreneurs are disturbers who don't belong in an army of soulless drones.
