Scott Schuman is proof that your dreams will take care of you, financially and otherwise. Don't let the surname fool you into thinking he is South African, Scott is a New Yorker who used to work as a fashion sales person until 2005. Life sort of forced him to quit his job to take care of his daughter. As with all the magical ways of life, he started walking around the streets of New York with his digital camera, taking pictures of people in interesting outfits. He was quoted saying: "I thought I could shoot people on the streets the way designers looked at people and give inspiration to lots of people in the process." He basically studies 'the human style' and has fun, makes money while doing it.
Fast forward to 2009, after enjoying big success with through his blog TheSartorialist, Scott published his self named first book, Scott Schuman though Pegiun Publishers. His first book sold over 100,000 copies and has been translated to several languages.
Scot now has book number two, "Closer" and it comes in a men's and women's version, also through Peguin.
Following one's dreams is extremely important, sometimes I think its the single most important thing in life, it always leads to a better quality life. Take Scott for example, he makes more than enough money selling images of people via his books. His blog is thee most visited online fashion blog in the whole entire world. He travels the world, most probably for free (via invites) just by virtue of having the blog. He enjoys front row seats (those are the most sought after seats) at prestigious fashion weeks in all fashion capitals of this world. He has columns in Vogue Italia, Vogue Paris and has edited his own column for the past three years for GQ. Damn, he is living my dreams, that's one thing for sure. To buy any of his books, visit amazon.com.
