Description:

Each week BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald’s Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it’s the path from leaving school early, to becoming a business owner. Hosted by Frances Cook.

Sometimes school just isn’t for you, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be successful in life.

Today’s guest decided exactly that, leaving school at 15, in order to become a mechanic.

Even if she’d stopped there, that would have been a plenty successful, skilled career, for many people.

But she didn’t stop there. She started a side hustle worth tens of thousands, finding cars that needed a quick fix, that could then be sold for thousands more.

And as she looked for parts, she came up with a business idea, one that’s already proving profitable.

Now at 24 she’s carving her own path.

For the latest podcast I talked to Kassandra Beehre, founder of Performance Kingdom.
