This entire article fully resonates with me and it's exactly why I prioritized my finances. I wanted to put myself in a position to quit those meaningless jobs and do work I found meaningful.
Well, i have seen plenty of people obsessed with being rich. Taxi drivers, toilet cleaners. There is no guaranteed way to become rich. This involves luck, and thas beyond human control.
This is so true. Not where I want to be yet but doing the 3 things you mentioned - an aspirational hourly rate, concentration of force, and giving myself no other option but to succeed – allowed me to get further in 3 years than I ever would have otherwise.
I recently ran new numbers for my hourly worth . It was sobering and alarming. Time is our most precious commodity. And allowing others to waste yours is really dumb .
Wow this is so true. We can learn anything in due time if only we channel our focus right and put our minds to it. A well thought-out piece put together.

I’ve chased momentum before clarity way too many times! Slowing down to actually think feels underrated, and kind of like the real flex. 🤔
We set our rates too low because we rate other people's lives around us too high.
Thank you, Dan. I always look forward to your letters. You are appreciated!
Thanks Dan!
Red pill. Choosing blue pill and staying in the same place forever is a no-go.
Money isn't everything but having enough solves an awfull lot of problems.
I really enjoy your spiritual/philosophical tone paired with brutal realism and clarity. These are great insights.
Red pill.
I got rich and took none of these decisions
