Good Evening,
My username is Anekeykia and today's my first day on the Forum. I joined to ask questions, discuss ideas, and look out for advice on my fastlane journey. I finished reading the Millionaire Fastlane and I'd like to seek, and one day provide, additional supplementary materials. I will help fulfill the world's needs and escape the Rat Race.
So far I'm grateful for my life and my experiences, but I desire to achieve the next level of financial independence. I grew up learning to save money and generally delay gratification. My Financial Literacy course in High School was virtually a 12-week Dave Ramsey Seminar. Recently, I graduated from university with an engineering degree and I'm working a full-time job in my field to gain experience. Again, I'm grateful for all of this, however I also feel like I'm another cow to the slaughter. Before reading the book, most people my age had a feeling we are being sold a raw deal. "Isn't it kind of insane that success means working 9 to 5 for 40 years?" Teachers would preach about compound interest and the joys of accumulating large sums over time, but why ride the jet ski when you're 70? What really bittered my belly was having to negotiate with companies about my intrinsic value and eventually learning how much they undercut unsuspecting hirees.
I'd like to be an inventor and start a business building useful products. I took initial steps to learn more and design after exiting school, however I had trouble getting a fastlane business off the ground. Eventually, I accepted a full-time position to gain more experience and cross barriers to entry into the tech-field. I'm still fresh and I'm learning more every day; the company is great and the work is very important, yet I still come home somewhat drained. The income is nice as a single unit, but considering the consequences of inflation, it won't be enough to provide my future family the standard of living I envision for them. This is my primary motivation, and I'd like to learn as much as I can to solve problems and eventually change my lane. Thanks for reading this and I look forward to chatting with everyone in the future.
Sincerely,
Anekeykia
