Chapters
Do not quit your job. I don't understand why people think that somehow magically they're going to successfully become financially independent. You realize it took me five years and more than like ten businesses to become financially independent. I hear people saying all the time that oh Alex, I'm going to quit my job because I have fifty k capital, and I'm just going to go full time crypto. And because I'm working eight hours, it's going to magically work. Like bro, you need. 8 times 5 a day to catch up with the amount of trial and error you're gonna have to go through to get a grip and understand. The person with character will run laps, guys. Laps. Character is everything. And so the problem is these guys, they think they're smart, like, because they did good in school, or I don't know why a lot of times, but they think they're smart. They quit their job. They have no character.
