    I could say most of these have helped me, but the one I would promote until my deathbed will be #6. So many people that I have seen lunge at the first chance to have that sports car or oversized house only to watch those things drag them down financially. I got certified (#1) with an MBA, invested in variance (#3) by learning to speak foreign languages and moved to a big city (#4). But the one defining element for my success was to not spend money when I got it. I bought my first, and only, new car just before my 40th birthday, despite having a six-figure income. Delaying satisfaction and having substantial savings paid dividends when the financial crisis came and I was one of the few people with cash on hand. In 2012 I had down payments for two investment properties that have more than quadrupled in value. Ten years later I own five houses, a half acre of land for future development, a net worth in the millions and I still drive my 10 year-old Ford Focus. Delay gratification and eventually the market swings will present opportunities that will make others say that you "fight unfair." (#10)

    But that's not what he did. Anyone can tell you you're living wrong - and be right most of the time (few of us are "living right", so opposite of the stopped clock syndrome). What he did is give some direction on how to live right, at least in one sense of the term. Most of the confident MF'rs that tell you you're wrong are ONLY right about the "you're living wrong" part -- they're just as wrong, or worse, with any subsequent advice on how to live better. Don't be defensive about this - you have a lot of company. Including me (I've stumbled across a few of these directions on my own, and they've helped a lot. I wish I had come across, or realized the importance of, the rest, much sooner. I'll see if they can still do some good in the time I have left). Good Luck!

  • @lucv5573
    @lucv55737 ай бұрын

    I like some of what Scott says about doing what you're good at (or could become good at) instead of just following passion. Where I tend to think the problem lies in the premise: we don't derive joy from our careers. Instead, a career is a byproduct of the preexisting values and beliefs we learn and develop in our lives. The accoutrements really don't mean much in the end if you don't know why you exist in the first place. Of course, this video is intended for career advice, and not meant to as life advice. However, we tend to put far too much emphasis and value on identifying as our careers, instead of the other way round.

    Agree about not following your passion.

Skills are the master, passion the slave, not the inverse.
