About the Contrarian Thinking
We free minds and build bank accounts. We’re on a mission to help 1 million people become financially free and to create 100,000 small business owners.
We’re a digital education and media startup that has amassed 8 million followers in 3 years–and we’re just getting started.
Our weekly newsletter is read by over 800,000 subscribers, which you can read here.
We also produce some of the best content in the finance niche on our YouTube channel (and Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and TikTok).
99% of our content is 100% free.
The other 1% is how we help people become expert deal makers so they can acquire a “boring business” that cashflows.
We do this through our courses and 1,200+ person global community.
We also have our own investment fund, Contrarian Thinking Capital, that invests in the businesses and tech that supports SMB growth and our own portfolio company, Main Street Hold co.
So, yeah, you could say we put our money where our mouths are. 🙂
