      I can personally connect to that. I started working with Margaret Johnson Arndt, a fiduciary financial counselor, and my profits were assured.

      We started taxing work and not wealth and created deficit spending under Regonomics and the results are clear. We repealed Glass Steagal and the resulting homeless sleep in our streets, the Pharmaceutical companies push opioids and sell them in mass quantities to the illegal drug trade, while promoting them as less addictive to the medical community and see the results on our streets, we sell globalization, and ignore the human and environmental consequences as our forests die and we have plagues of invading insects and toxic plants raising our food costs.
      We let the parasites grow at the top of our economic food chain and they sucked the life out of the middle class while providing NOTHING OF VALUE.
      Because we tax work, and not wealth. back @$$ward.

How can our economy grow if only the top 1% of the population has the money to spend on stuff? Of course, the economy is going into a recession. No average person is going to be spending money like it's water. Big cooperate will just sit with new products collecting dust on their shelves.

    A couple weeks ago I was listening to you TechLead and getting ready for a job interview. I went to the interview on my escooter and tried my best to get hired. I left that interview with a promise for a follow up meet with the prospect of landing the job. All was good until I crossed the road and got hit by a car. I spent some time in the hospital with bruises and concussion. Tomorrow I will go for a follow up with my doc. And yes I didn't get the job and currently I am not in the position to continue my job hunting. I have headaches, I'm limping and I have injured shoulder. I barely go outside, because I am sensitive to the light and feel light headed. I am 30 years old yet I feel like a 60 years old man, confused and troubled. I am sorry for you not being able to retire sooner, I wish you good health.

      Look on the bright side. Not a lot of people can say they've been hit by a car, so when you bring it up at every single social gathering in the future, people will be like "OMG! That's crazy! So glad you're okay!", and you get a dopamine hit from their reactions that make you feel like people actually care about your past struggles and triumphs. 🙂

    Living in the presence - that is the key message. I visited my family in Nigeria after 6 years. I am quick to realize how time flies. I worked pretty much everyday the past 6 years where my parents are aging and health is deteriorating. Living in the presence and doing what matters and more important should be prioritized as time lost with my family cannot be received.

    I've come to realize that the key to amassing wealth lies in making sound investments. I purchased my first home at the age of 21 for $87,000 and sold it for $197,000. My second home, acquired for $170,000, was later sold for $320,000, and my third property, purchased at $300,000, fetched $589,000, with buyers covering all closing costs and expenses. Not reaching a million before retirement feels like an unfulfilled goal.-

    I am genuinely happy for your decision and I hope you enjoy your life more, the present you talk about, in any way you like. Ironically I just came to check your channel after some years, and this is the video I watched. I used to watch quite some of your videos because you're smart, funny and somewhat very interesting and exotic to me in a way that how you've lived so different in the US, and your constant bombing thoughts about your life trauma, success and all the stories were all felt like you were the most honest person I'd seen on UA-cam although you tried to make them all as jokes. Perhaps, it would help you find what you seek even better if you travel more and live outside of the states.. rather than just visiting, you could find various towns and live each for months. Learn new language, culture and meet local people..! Whatever it is, I believe that you're not only intelligent but wise enough to head to where you can truly be happy.

    I totally relate with this. I started out in tech early, made 1 successful F2P game that made me about a million dollars when I was 20. I then worked at my own pace as a tech lead at various companies for a decade while also selling a 3D renderer I worked out when I was 20-23. I'm 35 now, got to travel everywhere for free on company time/dime, got a few million dollars and now I'm just chilling playing video games, working out, doing whatever I want. Will only work on stuff on contract that I really enjoy whenever they come along.

    I'm retired, but through inheritance, I feel bad for not earning it and would like to earn my own money, but I'm kind of giving up, taking my 3.9mil and retiring at 41. I feel very much the same way you do, and it's refreshing to hear it from someone else. I don't even want to be around these brainwashed ambitious people. At the same time I don't know what to do with myself, I don't feel like volunteering, I have traveled everywhere I wanted to and it's not fun anymore. You can't even tell people you are retired, they either don't believe you and if they do, they don't respect you for not being productive.

    As an engineer who is white, straight, not political. I just realized I'll never be hired for a new job, promoted in my current one and the first to go, so I'm putting it all on red today. All on 3 things. I pledge that Act 3 will be nothing other than Bitcoin, Jesus and being kind. That's it, no value, no collecting paper, no more hard work, no more ladder climbing, nothing else. I view these three things as the only things that are resilient enough to be worth the effort (if you want to call it that or not) in Act 3. Collect Bitcoin, Believe Jesus, and be kind. That's all I can do, and all I will do. That's it.
