I think $250,000 invested by 35 is a good milestone number for most people making $75000 or better
More is always nice, but being here by 35 especially if you lived at home most of your 20s while making that is pretty possible
Just depends on priority and access
Everyday you should feel the highest opinion of yourself
If you have no confidence in something about yourself or your abilities, it’s going to be really hard
Work on it, if you’re struggling with that because that’s your edge when you get it right & people can see that in you
That 90% of people are not interested in growing personally or professionally....but the ones that are, are just maxxing out life & work, and an absolute joy.
Aging should mean getting smarter and more refined especially financially
You can’t get ahead if you keep carrying the same habits and approaches from your 20s into your 30s and beyond
That mindset is killing your opportunities
