Thanks! Occassionally I feel "successful". Most of the time I feel waaay behind. Probably becasue I have very high expectations, and becasue I constantly compare myself to other people my age that seriously successful. One of my cleints is 32, and owns a $24 million business. He puts almost a $1 million in his pocket every year, and has already had offers for his brand in excess of $30 million. He'll probably sell in 2-3 years for 2x that
Oh yeah...he drives a Toyota Camry and his wife a Suburban.
That's exactly it though - you have goal-oriented focus......240 and I have talked about this briefly........the "millionaires next door" are savvy businessmen, but moreso they recognize what's really important. It's not that they don't like material possessions....we all do.....but financially they have impeccable timing, strategic goals/budgets, are business owners, majority have some formal education, are all relatively saavy investors and they don't throw away cash in cars, jewelry and shit like that. Just modest homes, vehicles, modest professional clothing, take care of their bodies, have a ton of investment income coming in that virtually covers their monthly living expenses, etc.....just highly disciplined folks in virtually every facet of their life. Just have a good common sense approach in general, live in their means, are prepared for the future and the unexpected, etc........I'm tryin hard to adopt a lifestyle like this.
