E142 | How an ADHD College Dropout Earned Six-Figures by Age 21–Jamaal Thomas

He interned as a salesman right out of high school. And although Jamaal started college, he never went to class. Since he preferred his job in sales, he dropped out. He read as much as he could about becoming a better salesman and by the age of 19, he was making almost $100,000 per year. Today he’s the co-founder of Black on Black Education, a nonprofit that advocates for student-centered approaches to education, something he didn't have as a kid.
