We chat a lot about creativity such as struggling as a creative, the path to success as an artist, and the false assumption about making a living with your art. Check out it.

Today he's back by popular demand to share a simple one-two approach to setting your prices and upping your earning potential. Pencils ready? Okay, take it away Ramit. Thanks, Chase.

He collapsed into a depression, paralyzed by fear and overwhelmed by the prospect of rebooting literally his entire life (with no money, no degree, and nothing to fall back on). But unwilling to accept defeat, he broke the massive challenge of reinventing himself into a series of smaller, manageable goals that he took on way by one. It... read more ›

One of the most consistent requests I get from readers is for info about all the paperwork and business side of the photo & cinema industries.

Turn back your mental clock to April of 2012, when Facebook acquired Instagram for the eye-popping price of $1 billion. It was a big story, with headlines all over not just the tech press but mainstream outlets like CNN, Newsweek and the nightly news-- who could have imagined a company with barely over a dozen employees commanding a 10-figure valuation?! Like most of you, I watched the story unfold like some kind of tech fairy... read more ›
