Author Bio

John Freund received his BA from UPENN and his MBA from USC (too many letters…). John first performed improv comedy with his college improv troupe Without A Net, and went on to become director of the group. He has since performed at both the Upright Citizens Brigade and the People’s Improv Theater in New York City.

This is John’s first e-book, and he recently completed his first full-length nonfiction book called ‘TurtleBunny: The Two Roads To Wealth For 20 & 30-Somethings.’ TurtleBunny explains the basics of personal finance and entrepreneurship in a light-hearted and humorous way; it aims to be the first book on personal finance and entrepreneurship that 20 and 30-somethings will actually want to read!

When he’s not travelling the world, John is living and writing in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
