How rich are you
Rich is just a fugazi word and doesn’t mean anything in actuality. There was a bloomdale study made in 2018, where a large sample size of C-suit executives were asked about how much money you need to have before you’re considered rich. They ended up saying $25 million in assets.

Not net-worth, but in assets. You could have $25 million in assets and owe $50 million - and be in debt on the books - and you’d still be considered rich.

Trust is at the foundation of every successful person. You’re first rich when you’re trusted enough that a creditor would lend you an obscene amount of money.

To skill stack. It depends on how you want to make money and how risk-aversive you are.

A lot of people specialise and become very good lawyers, doctors, engineers etc. which are skills that are high paying where they then bounce from business to business and leverage their skills in the job market - this is also what’s considered the cooperate rat race. You can either start doing this or becoming a business owner and providing value for yourself.

At the core of both earning a lot of money in the job market or as a business owner, you need to specialise and acquire skills that people are willing to pay a lot of money for. That’s the best bet. It’s tedious work, but there isn’t really just a get rich scheme you can just do. You need to find something that 1) you’re good at 2) someone would be willing to pay a lot for.

I don’t recommend investing in the stock market for a multitude of reasons. All the investments I personally have are low stake in particular businesses or in different index funds. You should always put money in the CL 2500. When the economy grows, your money grows.

By investing in a company, you aren’t just investing in the product as of today, you’re investing in how the company is gonna look 10 years from now. Their vision, direction and the values the company hold is the most important. You want a steady return on investment (ROI) for the future to come. You have to believe in the business, and all of the business facets.

If the business is young, I’d look at the history of the people running the business, what’s their track record like, what does the market look like, which problem does their key product solve etc.

Usually the businesses that do well are businesses that operate on a market with little to no regulations. If I invest in a young company I always look at how regulation is on the market.

Why do you care about financial success? The reason I do it may be different to other people. I think I’m smart enough to get rich, that’s why I’ve set it as a goal.

What else is there to do career wise?

How do you plan your day to ensure your as succesful as possible?
First you have to categorise what the word “success” mean to you as a person. I’m assuming it means happy.

I’m the happiest when I’m confident, and feeling productive. The question is then, how do you become confident. I believe you built confidence through repetition. I don’t believe you can really be confident without any repetition in doing what you’re doing.

That’s why I start everyday with the small W’s and I accumulate those as early as possible. I wake up 5AM and go to the gym. I eat protein, I read. I do all of the heavy lifting as early as possible.

After doing this for a long time you’ll become confident in adversity.
What things do you avoid that will distract you from your goal?
Unproductive people. I believe the 5 people you spend the most time around are the 5 people who says the most about you. If you spend time around lazy unproductive people, you will become lazy and unproductive.

surplus after expenses is like 3k
In assuming that’s all expenses. You’re making good money then. I would put approximately 30% into an index fund with an ROI of 7%.

The rest you should invest into yourself. Acquire skills that people are willing to pay you money for. Become more knowledgable.

Put your skills to use then lil nigga. You don’t have to know anything about investing to put 30% into an index fund. It’s not hard at all.

Ice cream sales are very season dependant. Do you live in a hot climate?

If you do you can lower the price per ice cream that will increase the raw number of sales.

I would try to talk to your vendors and ask them for a cheaper price. Usually Ice cream shops are just middle men. If you can get it cheaper, you’ll make more.

The margins in retail aren’t very high

Do you still think that being highly skilled and paid individual is the best way to be well off financially in this economy?

Also do you think it's worth being a social media influencer as an alternative to having a job?

Yes. It’s all about your credit security. You’re gonna make money with a desirable skill. By acquiring skills you prove competence. By proving you’re competent, people are more willing to do business with you.

Also do you think it's worth being a social media influencer as an alternative to having a job?
If you’re interesting as a person. You lose nothing by posting on IG.

why aren't u interested in crypto while claiming to be successful financially, It's THE sector atm and it's not even close. Every high earning individual I know irl has a shit ton of assets in crypto. Bitcoin and crytpo in general is single handedly on it's way to overturning traditional currencies

Why not study early before it's use is widespread (in an understatement)

If you have a good understanding of crypto that’s a skill set. I don’t, and that’s why I don’t trade crypto.

Acquiring that skill set may be something I should look into. Overall I’m not really risk searching when it comes to trading. I like material assets in my portfolio, not volatile products like stocks, currency and others.

understandable, I'd def look into it tho. keep 20-30% of networth aside for volatile assets. I'm tryna get into real estate, r you knowledgeable in that field?

Somewhat. The problem with real estate today is that It’s one of the best investments you can make*if* you have a lot of capital to start off with.

It’s something every venture capitalist gets into once they’ve made their first couple of millions. The more money you have, the more money you’re going to make. The problem is, if you’re dead broke you can’t really get into it.
