How To Die…With Zero
Episode 36: Alex Lieberman (@businessbarista) brings you a special Wednesday edition of Founder’s Journal to share lessons from Bill Perkins’ Die With Zero. It’s a playbook on how to live life by maximizing enjoyment vs. maximizing wealth. Entrepreneurs can get caught up with racking up as many dollars as they possibly can but miss out on investing in experiential moments that can pay dividends over time. Here are the biggest lessons:
Life is not a game of space invaders
Experiences are investments like stock
There’s a huge cost to having money left over
The human brain is irrational about death
You should save less, especially when you’re young
Die with zero doesn’t mean you don’t care about kids or charity
The optimal time to extract enjoyment is ages 26-35
Health is the #1 factor affecting lifetime fulfillment
You should find more and more ways to exchange $ for free time
There’s 2 common regrets people have on their deathbed
Use time buckets

Customer Reviews
Awesome Podcast
As a Gen-Xer who left a large corporation after 23 to be employee #4 in a start up … this podcast has not only helped me get up to speed in working in a start up, but has also challenged my way of thinking and helped me develop my thought processes. Alex’s insights, honesty, and transparency really make this program authentic and valuable. He thinks about the content, and delivers. Jesse is a great addition to the team, as his perspective and successes really compliment Alex. Keep up the good work.
Favorite Business Podcast Each Week
Always entertaining and I take a little tidbit every week! If you want to learn about a wide range of topics you can adapt to any type of business this is the podcast. We’re testing out a product idea on Kickstarter in the next couple months and would have never thought about using that platform before!
Authentic & insightful
Must listen if you run a business, are starting a business, or want to start a business. Listening to Alex & Jesse feels like hanging out with 2 pals giving you all the right advice.
