I'm 47, I have no net worth
I make 85k a year.
You're going to get a lot of tough love over this. Just know this - everyone here wants you to be here. Everyone wants you to start something and do amazing things with your life and break free.
Just take this as fact.
That being said - you need to get your shit together sir.
Take your income, divide it in half, and learn to live on that without exception. Cut out all the bullshit you are currently throwing your money away on and get it out of your life. Fancy car? Ditch it. Eating out? Stop that. Buying everything you walk by? Cut that shit out. You are clearly living like you've "made it" well before you've actually done so.
Now, take that other half, roughly forty goddamn thousand dollars, and build something with it. You can throw away 3 grand a month every month of the year on learning to be an entrepreneur now. Most of us here started with that amount TOTAL, forget about some kind of renewable pool you can keep dipping into.
Like real estate? You could put $20k down on a house TWICE every year and rent it out and cash flow it.
Like physical products? Go bring in a dozen different things you think might work and try to sell them on Amazon.
Invent something.
Build apps.
Build SaaS solutions.
Whatever.
Change your habits. Change your life. You are in a golden position to make something happen without the financial risk that many of us face.
Any advice is appreciate. I know all you guys have already drank the kool-aide and are probably going to be very one sided, and even have some harsh words for me, but that's ok. I'm asking for it here.
This is also both insulting and ridiculous.
Drank the kool-aid?
You make top tier income and have zero net worth. I don't know what you are drinking from but frankly I think the kool aid tastes better.
