(posted 2022-10-20) containing an English first-person narrative by a single speaker. The speaker recounts a 2000 experience trying to open a bank account (needing two forms of ID), which led them into the banking industry, exposed them to very wealthy people, and changed their outlook—framing setbacks as redirection ("never just rejection, it's always redirection").

Chapters

So I went to Wells Fargo and come to find out you need 2 forms of ID to open a bank account. This was in 2000, you guys. So I had to go home, grab my green card with my state ID in order to make the transaction happen. This redirection in my life then led me to the banking industry where I was eventually exposed to some of the most wealthiest, People I know. And this particular exposure changed the way that I saw things, changed the way that I thought. It changed the way I dreamt. It changed the way I visualized things. Remember, it's never just rejection. It's always redirection.
