How to Go From Rock Bottom to Top 1% Earner

Common Denominator

Colby Harris is a Gen Z trailblazer who’s obsessed with health, wealth, and leadership. He launched a pressure washing business at 17, cycled 100 miles in one day to raise money for under-served kids, works in private equity, and is about to start his own company.

But during Colby’s journey, he was once so broke that he had to put gas in his car with quarters, and he even lost 30 pounds because he couldn’t afford to eat.

Here’s his inspiring story of grit, resilience, and relentless optimism. And the mindset it takes to go from rock bottom to being a top 1% earner in your field.
