Hey, Thomas. Marcel, like, how did you actually get from where you were all the way up here in Dubai, living this life, multi-million dollar apartment? Like, how did you make it happen?
Yeah, that's a great question, man. So I was born in a poor third world country to poor parents. My dad was a Domino's Pizza delivery boy. My mom was a maid. You know, I had no college degree. I had no opportunity. But something changed for me in my life. And that was I met a mentor and that mentor taught me what I needed to do. He gave me the knowledge and the wisdom on what I needed to do to change my life. You know, to change your life, you must first change your philosophy. And so that's what I learned from my mentor back in 2017. 5 years later, I became a millionaire.
