Noah's Business Experiments

A story about how Noah Kagan built his career through side hustles while working at Intel.

"When I was working at Intel, I used that job as my investor and started experimenting with multiple businesses. I did college consulting, created Ninja Card.com, put on conferences that I charged for. Then while at Mint, I started doing Facebook apps and games and started making a lot of money.

I was working mornings, weekends, lunches, nights - I kept going and trying lots of different things. Eventually, after probably two and a half to three years, my side hustle finally became my main hustle.

My cost of living was so low at the time, which allowed me to take a lot of risks and try many things out. I didn't know what to do initially, so I just tried a bunch of stuff to figure it out. That's how I discovered what worked for me."
