HOUSTON, TEXAS, May 19, 2016 (Scott Lorenz) – The present era may be the greatest time in U.S. history to start a business.
That claim is made by David Thomas Roberts, known as the “Renegade Capitalist,” the founder and CEO of Teligistics which he started with $1,000 and has since pioneered an industry that now is estimated to be a $20 billion market.
Thomas, who has been in business for himself for 35 years since age 21, discusses why to start your own business and the secrets of entrepreneurial success in his new book Unemployable! How To Be Successfully Unemployed Your Entire Life (ISBN 13: 978-0-9962590-1-9, 2016, Defiance Press & Publishing,148 pages, available on Amazon, in paperback, hardcover, Kindle and Audible.

In his new book, Roberts shares the lessons he has learned from more than 35 years as an entrepreneur, the unconventional strategies he has employed, and provides specific how-to advice on starting a business and the secrets of being successfully independent – and sustaining that success and independence for the rest of your life.
“Most of us are taught to get a good education and a good job,” says Thomas. “The idea that we should be content to have someone else dictate our daily commute, our income, schedules and vacations is the accepted norm. To some like myself, the idea of life in a cubicle eight hours a day is akin to torture! Unemployable reveals what it takes to jump off the employment treadmill and participate in the free enterprise system, unencumbered by traditionally accepted myths.”
Thomas became known as the “Renegade Capitalist” because he has built a lifetime of success in defiance of accepted business norms and by rejecting those traditionally accepted myths that the unsuccessful or mediocre entrepreneurs follow.
After dropping out of college, Roberts opened a multi-million dollar air freight business with his brother. When that business failed because of a severe downturn in the oilfield business, Roberts launched another successful business which he later sold. He then built several successful ventures in the freight industry, telecommunications, distributions, network-marketing, and publishing.
Roberts has the rare experience and business acumen of how to get a business started form nothing to how to raise millions of dollars in a private stock offering. He is sought out for advice on business plans and on his rare marketing insight, and has advised universities and colleges on establishing an entrepreneurial studies curriculum.
“Success for me is the freedom to do the things I love without others controlling my time, income or schedule, and without worrying about money,” stresses Thomas. “Misery for me would be being ‘employed’ by the standard most of us are taught to follow as we go through the educational system.”
