Welcome back to the Laptop Empires show! Today Mike is joined by Marko Zlatic, who is the owner of Whiteboard Finance – a successful personal finance YouTube channel targeted at entrepreneurs and investor.

“I’m not special, you’re not special. Yes, we have our strengths, we have weaknesses. I think at the end of the day, focus and consistency kind of beats that talent—hardwork beats talent. Obviously you need to have some sort of expertise in whatever you’re doing… You don’t have to be a complete subject matter expert, you don’t have to win a Nobel Peace Prize, you don’t have to be some creative inventor of something new. I would just focus on something that you can talk candidly about for 30 minutes unscripted and that’s your passion right there and just figure out how to monetize that…” -Marko Zlatic
