Ep 105 - Millionaire Digital Nomad with Sam Marks

Ep 105 - Millionaire Digital Nomad with Sam Marks

Author: Johnny FD February 18, 2016 Duration: 1:01:54

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.
