What happens when a UFC fighter puts nearly everything he earns into farmland, livestock, and preparing for a future he believes could look completely different?
In this episode of Digital Social Hour, Sean Kelly sits down with Bryce Mitchell ahead of his next fight to discuss training, faith, farming, money, government surveillance, political distrust, and why he believes Americans need to become far more self-reliant.
Bryce explains why he drives an old Toyota instead of buying luxury cars, why he reinvests his fight earnings into cattle, barns, fencing, and farmland, and why he believes livestock could become more valuable than money during a major economic or infrastructure crisis. He also shares how his farm operates, why he practices bartering with neighbors, and why he thinks more families should grow food, own chickens, and reduce their dependence on centralized systems.
