Hi everyone.

I come from a small country in Europe.

Not the best at writing but will try to make this interesting :) Will not bore you with my childhood - yes there were some f***ed up moments (not from my part), but we all have those right?

Anyways I didn't know which high school to go to and my grades were never really good. I was always somewhere in the middle. I decided on going to economics high school just because that's where kids who were not super smart, but not stupid either went :) After I finished my high school everyone in my class went to college. I decided not to! Instead I wanted to start making money and build something for me! All my class mates thought I was crazy! Here was my thought proccess: If we are 30 people in the class and all of us go to college...after 4 years of college...how are we different? What is my advantage? ZERO!

But if I go a different route, after 4 years I will have 4 years of experience and also money that I earned in 4 years! Turned out my thinking was correct for me!

I did a few random jobs at the start and got fired from all of them. I felt completly useless and was wondering if I can be good at anything at all? I did find a job later that would take me to where I am at this moment. This job was basicaly repairing cars. I started when I was 20, and due to circumstances I was forced to open up my own company at 22 to stay in this industry that I love.

Now 10 years of running we had our best year so far in 2020 and looking forward to what the future will bring.

In 10 years I learned a lot and I joined this forum in order to help others and also learn from others.

Let's get successful!
