Hello

[hodio]

So, my name is Khanh. I'm from Vietnam. And I'm just a typical Uni student who was told by society - and in my case my parents- that is should go to Uni and pursuit a high paying carrer. My parents chose for me Architecture. I was semi-bought to the Slowlane, but inside I always had a burning desire to live like those movie stars and pro athletes. So after 2 years and an internship, I finally realise that it is STILL a 9 to 5 job. I was stuck for a few months then I found the Fastlane (i'm still reading it). And I made the choice to drop out of uni for a pursuit of entrepreneurship. I will live a luxurious life like those movie stars and pro athlete. Thank you M J for writting the book and opened my eyes and I hope to accompany all of you on the road trip to wealth.
Thank you all for reading my story!

PS: I would love to hear your stories as well!

No plan? No business strategy? Any ideas?

What did your parents say?

I'm all for quitting a job or college, but only if you have a verified business in a potential growth stage.

Making rash decisions because of my books is generally an "action-fake" ... and not part of an orchestrated plan.

I wish you well my friend.

Hey M J, thanks for calling it out. Yes i know it is a rash decision, but actually I have been looking for a way out of uni for months prior , I've been looking for business models online, reading business books, watching youtube videos, but not actually trying any because the fear of going against society's norm. Your book is the push i needed. So I made the decision to commit to the Fastlane.

On to my plans: I'm going to start a digital marketing agency that runs ads for eCommerce brands to raise some capital and start my own eCommerce business.

And my parents? They don't know. I kept this secret from them. I know they will find out eventually and i know my parents, they both are very old fashioned and they will never accept the idea of me abandoning the "safe route" ( I don't blame them for it because they grew up in tough times), and they might kick me out of the house but I'm commited so i have no problem bussing tables for my rent, I'm just buying time under their roof to get my business running.

P/s: I really didn't expect the first person to reply to me is M J himself. What are the odds. Huh? =)
