Two Ways to keep the momentum going!
We all know that it takes 66 days to make something a habit, so we created two ways to keep the Anti-preneur momentum going (and they are both free!):
1. The Anti-preneur Insider weekly digital magazine
2. The Anti-preneur community on Skool
Which one should I choose? Start with the magazine, or sign up for both now!

A Free Resource Built for Professionals
You don’t need to go it alone on your journey toward freedom.
The Anti-preneur Insider is a free newsletter designed for professionals, practitioners, and experts who want to grow their careers and their financial independence without burnout, guesswork, or hustle culture.
Each week, Dr. Matt Markel shares short, actionable insights that help you apply the principles of the Anti-preneur Framework to real life.
Subscribe today and get tools, mindset shifts, and tips that help you make consistent progress, one insight at a time. We’ll even throw in a free first chapter of the Amazon #1 bestseller book Anti-preneur: Thrive in Your Career, Achieve Financial Success — your introduction to the framework.
Professionals deserve financial freedom — without sacrificing the careers they’ve built.
— Dr. Matt Markel
Each week, you’ll receive one actionable idea that helps you think differently, work smarter, and grow steadily, whether it’s about mastering your mindset, managing your money, or leading with integrity.
It’s not just another newsletter.
It’s your weekly reset, the reminder that success doesn’t have to come at the cost of balance.
What Makes This Digital Magazine Different
There’s a lot of newsletters out there, but most never get read. Why? They fall into two traps: they’re either too high-level to act on or they wander into esoteric facts no one can use on Monday morning. The Anti-preneur Insider is the opposite. Every edition gives you clear, specific actions you can take that week—actions grounded in the same principles that help professionals become financially independent without quitting their jobs.
What sets it apart:
Real frameworks, not fluff. Every idea connects to the proven five-step KICKSTART™ Framework.
Career + Finance, together. You’ll learn how to grow professionally while building financial freedom.
Practical, concise insights. No long reads or generic motivation — just clarity and direction.
Built for real people. This community is designed around your schedule, goals, and experience level.
Every insight is written by Dr. Markel himself, combining lessons from his 35-year career as an engineer, executive, and investor.
He’s been where you are. And he knows how to help you move forward.
A Glimpse Inside
Here’s a preview of the kind of topics members receive each week:
The 1% Rule — How Small Habits Build Big Freedom.” Why tiny daily improvements can outpace big, unsustainable efforts.
“The Invisible Hand — Staying Calm When Others Panic.” How disciplined responses lead to stronger long-term results.
“Exceed Expectations — The Secret to Career Leverage.” Why exceeding expectations once can unlock opportunities for years.
“The Anti-Hustle Mindset — Redefining Success.” How to step away from burnout culture and focus on what matters most.
Each insight is short enough to read over coffee and actionable enough to change how you think by lunchtime.
