EP197: Drew Haas Won $500k From a Netflix Show and Says Success is Not Defined by Money

Drew Haas is the owner of a boat rental service in Austin, TX, outdoor enthusiast and is most well-known for his appearance and victory on Netflix's 'Outlast' Season 3! Drew grew up in a small town in Texas and grew up hunting and fishing.

After reading personal development books, he decided to take a risk on himself and bypass the conventional 9-5 route. Drew started his own business in Austin and started posting outdoors content.

From this content, he was contacted by a producer to participate in a Mr. Beast video, which led to an appearance on Netflix's 'Outlast'. In this episode, Drew tells the story of being selected for the show and the process of preparing for, and participating in the show.

He faced physical and mental hardship during his time in Alaska such as sleeping in freezing temperatures, hunting and gathering for food, losing over 20lbs in 10 days, and more. Ultimately, Drew persevered and won the show with his teammate, Drake. When it was all said and done, Drew and Drake split $1 million.

Drew talks about the experience of seeing that money hit his bank account, and how meaningful it was as he spent years struggling with bills and credit card debt. Today, Drew is still on fire to develop himself, his faith, and the people around him. He shares that success is about happiness, not what is in your bank account. I hope this story inspires and entertains you!
