McDonald's Millionaire | Bridger Pennington

You could be a millionaire working at McDonald's. We did the math. If you get minimum wage, it's about 41 years. You'll earn $1 million working at McDonald's. The problem is none of us want to do that. We actually want to make $1 million, but in a more compressed time. So the real question is, how do I compress time? Now, in our day and age, typically entrepreneurship rewards people more than anything else in our society. So if you want to be entrepreneurial, for me, I took it in like 7-month chunks. If I could go all out at something for like 7 months, And I could keep my expenses low, my costs low, and just survive and go after things for 7 months at a time and take a real swing at something. Not just kind of half do it, not on the side, not a little side hustle, go all in. Over 5 years, that means I can have about 10 to 12 swings at the bat. I'm probably gonna hit a single. I might hit a double. I might even hit a home run. We did this on a couple businesses that have now done over 8 figures in revenue. We're like, man, we really hit one out of the park. We really hit one out of the park. So figure out how you can compress time and make as many swings at the bat as you can so you can retire early in your 30s or 40s.
