Jaime Tardy is the founder of the Eventual Millionaire. She has paid off over $70,000 worth of debt, left her high-paying project management job, started her own coaching business, and has interviewed over 90 millionaires for her weekly web-show.
Things we talk about in this episode:
- What odd jobs like street sweeper and door-to-door vacuum sales taught her.
- Why she made the decision in college to transition from Art to IT.
- Why her entrepreneurial influences growing up didn’t actually keep her from getting a regular job after college.
- How she paid off $70,000 in debt (including convincing her husband to sell back their two-month old car.)
- Why she gave up a well paying, traveling project management job to spend more time with her kids.
- What three habits most of the 90+ millionaires she has interviewed have in common.
And for the first time for the Cubicle Renegade podcast we did video of the whole interview too. (Be sure to watch in HD.)

Great interview Caleb. Been a big fan of Eventual Millionaire and its nice hearing her story & journey. Great questions.
Thank you Mike. I’m glad you enjoyed the interview and more specifically the questions.
I really enjoyed this interview Caleb. I’ve really enjoyed Jaime’s interviews with millionaires so it was really neat to hear what she has learned from these interviews herself. Can’t wait to read her book.
Thanks Jon. I’m really looking forward to reading her book as well because I haven’t gone through all of her interviews yet and I’m sure she’ll formulate the best lessons extremely well.
Cheers!
Thanks for a great interview Caleb! I’m really enjoying your podcast and blog. Always nice to see other creatives making money with their art!
You’re welcome Jules.
