What is a Bohemian Capitalist?

  • Bohemian - a person (such as a writer or an artist) living an unconventional life

  • Capitalist - a person who favors capitalism

Put simply, I enjoy the arts as much as I enjoy economics.

A buddy once said, “Evans, you’re the only guy I know who’s just as comfortable wearing a tuxedo at a country club as you are living in a tent in the backcountry.” If I had to define a Bohemian Capitalist, that might be it.
