Or they are uninformed to the fact that A.) There are some people that actually do sound like this naturally or B.) It is scripted and that is not a bad thing because this means this channel is a pro channel that knows a script is essential to have.

Your new speed is just fine. Typically, (and I am sure most people do this) I set the speed to 1.5x on all videos. It was well paced and felt much more authentic. Well done.

Hold tight to your Passion but remember we as Humans also Burn out at times and need a Vacation to Recharge that Passion.

If your single enjoy the freedom and independance you have, The solitude and peace of mind that you have at the end of each and everyday and if inclined Invest in a Companion for yourself you look like the Yorkie type...I could be wrong....Looking forwards to your continued success young lady. Looking fowards to this.

A "promise" which the amount you are promising to yourself you are going to make or a by when, and the "Go For" you're going to make this your stretch goal that you are always 100% focused on (the $200K).

Thank you for your honesty. The revenues point you made was great! No One tells ppl that. 90k subs now! Way to stick with it!!

Thanks for posting this. Really liking all of the videos you have been making and posting. Very much a refresher from the "standard" personal finance schools of thought. I'm also a bit inspired by the fact that you are a licensed attorney and want to use your skills to make a difference and that you paid off your loans from law school. I wish one day to go to law school, but my $50k a year job with the $35k undergrad debt (I paid off ~$10k in credit cards and recently just finished paying off the car which was around $33k once all was said and done - both within 2.5 years of finishing school) on top of ever increasing living expenses in California just some how makes me shy away from being a broke student again. You setting your goal of having an online legal business in addition to my current job as a paralegal offers me some brainstorming thoughts though as to how I would come out of Law School on top. But getting there and getting through it is a different matter... Thanks again!

@Erika2

Hi Nathaniel, This comment was really nice to read. I can completely understand how discouraging it must be to be tied down by the undergrad debt, and how you wouldn't necessarily want to go back to the broke student life once again. Law school is definitely something I recommend REALLY thinking about before pursuing. Many people (myself included) go to law school without really thinking about the gravity of what $200k of debt means. You should definitely pursue some passive income streams now! I wish I had started earlier. There are SO MANY ways that you can get creative and build up multiple streams of income, without really investing much upfront (just time). Hopefully future passive income updates will give you ideas too :)

Love this video!!! Thanks for sharing a clear and honest path. I’m hooked! I can’t wait to see what you accomplish.

Thanks Erika, love your videos. Keep up the good work.

I love this! Toss the scripts and trust your inner voice! It takes courage to put your plan out there knowing that it all won't go perfectly. It will be fun to watch! Thank you for taking us on this journey! The best teachers encourage and inspire. You do that well. That inspirational aspect is lacking in so much of the 'financial education' that is available in schools. I love that you want to connect your passion to your business. That will help you through the tough times and missteps. One caution: So many mission statements are little more than PR Department generated BS. They are filled with grand words of 'sustainability' and 'inclusiveness' etc. Often they are just buzzwords that sound great but it really has nothing to do with the everyday operation of the business. A mission statement that is a true reflection of your actual day to day work and goals is genius. It is and should be the 'why' behind the what. This will be fun to watch!

Anyways, thanks so much for the lovely comment! I seriously live for the comment section. It just drives me to continue to make videos and step more and more out of my comfort zone for each video.
