Facebook fired Kagan in 2006 after he leaked company information to the press at Coachella.
"I didn't work too hard at Intel and I didn't spend a lot of money," Kagan says.
Following his firing from Facebook, Kagan ran conferences for aspiring entrepreneurs (a hustle he had started while at Intel), taught English in South Korea and picked up consulting work for Silicon Valley tech firms.
In addition to working on AppSumo, Kagan manages rental properties and creates content for his YouTube and social media channels.
In addition to his AppSumo business and his book, Kagan operates a YouTube channel and manages five rental properties.
