Hi !
This is probably my first post in a forum for a very very long time, so i hope i can keep up
My situation is probably not so bad, but not so good either. I am married guy in his late 20s, with a son. I have secured eight figure salary (in my currency is probably above average but still not so great IMO), with a mortgage and a car lease.
Not so bad huh ? wrong.
Half of my salary end up paying my mortgage and leasing. I made a really bad choices, and to be honest I have to live frugally in the last two years. The situation is very frustrating because my wife demanded me to be more productive (It's not her fault IMO, who wanted to marry a broke a$$ and live a suffering life?). So two months ago, I started thinking "F*ck it, I might as well change my routine to fix this situation rather than blaming my past". The first thing I do is buy an amazon kindle and start to read books. everyday.
Until recently, I found MJ's Book, the millionaire fastlane , and right now, I'm half way finishing UNSCRIPTED . It completely blow my F*cking mind when the solution is so obvious.
More to the story, a year ago I also have tobacco business with three of my friend. it wasn't selling much tbh, but for me this represents my effort to go forward and starting to pursue entrepreneurship. One small step at a time, won't harm you is it ?
That's why I'm here, i know it probably a selfish reason, but I wanted to fix my situation by learning from successfully people before me. Before I got married to my wife, I promised that we will see the world, and this situation somehow nowhere to that promise. I wanted to make my family happy. I wanted to send my son to a good school somewhere abroad.
I don't write this to have you sympathize, Beside an introduction, this writing is also a big reminder to myself that I just have to fulfill my promise to her.
Anyway, I hope this wasn't too frustrating to you guys
