Episode 2312

Today’s episode is part of a new feature we’re doing in 2022 called ‘Your First $1,000.’ As you might surmise from the title, this is all about how someone made their first $1,000. How did they get to that point? Not their first $100,000—that’s cool, but it would probably be a long story. Today’s short story features Oliver Rankin from Manchester, England. This is a fun one: Oliver is the founder of BritBox, a service that sends British-themed goods to lonely expats around the world. But what about his first $1,000—how did he make that happen, what did it feel like, and what did he learn? Also: the difference between Vegemite and Marmite. Let’s hear it from Oliver. I’ll be back at the end to wrap us up.

Yours in the revolution,
