Hello everyone,
I'm from Italy and unfortunately I discovered TMF a bit late in my life compared to most of you guys (I'm 31), just picked up Unscripted too and I can definitely say that the books completely changed my view on life.
Even if I have what most would consider a good situation (masters degree in Engineering, well paid job, no debt, I own my house, etc.) I always felt that something was wrong and that I was meant for something more that the rat race Monday-through-Friday I'm living, and now the book left me with clarity of mind and a burning desire of escaping the race as soon as possible, becoming an entrepreneur.
If you think that the SCRIPT is strong in the US, you wouldn't imagine how it is in Italy. Basically entrepreneurship culture is almost absent, the dream job for most is a government job mediocrly paid where you can snooze your way to retirement.
That's not the life I want, at all.
I'm eager to make my first steps and create a business, I'm trying to collect informations in order to decide which would be a good starting point, considering I live in Italy and not in the US, so laws, taxes and whatnot are very different. I hope that the forum can be an inspiration for me as much as the book has been so far.
Thanks @MJ DeMarco for giving the red pill, I'm ready to pursue my dreams.
