In this brief monologue, the speaker recounts moving from Michigan to California at age 18 to immerse himself in an environment where becoming a millionaire is a common expectation. He contrasts the regional standards: in Michigan, a million dollars signified extreme wealth, while in California, not having a million dollars was considered poor. The narrative highlights his deliberate choice to seek out a community with a high‑earning mindset as a foundational step toward his later financial success.

I was 18, I decided I was going to move to California because I knew that Michigan was not the place where people were becoming millionaires every other day. But I did know that people in California were, and so I wanted to get around people that were thinking like that and acting like that. So I relocated, and when I went to that new location, those people had different standards. The standards of those people were that you had to make a million dollars, otherwise you were poor. Whereas when I was in Michigan, making a million dollars meant you were the richest person on the block.
