I'm a teenager from the UK and hopefully taking the fastlane route when I get out of these dreading years... I'm in the midst of reading the MF and and am learning valuable lessons (though I'm finding it relatively repetitive right now). I started an eBay business and that went well until PayPal shut me down (yes I'm using the sidewalkers excuse of blaming someone else but my parents won't let me use their ID and I legit don't have any other ways of getting past this barrier) so I've resorted to learning about riches now. Before I started reading this book, I was reading articles about marketing to get me on the eCommerce ladder of businesses and have set up websites to experiment with to gain traffic.
I want to be a millionaire by 25 and I even made a bet to my friends that if I don't then they can put that on me for the rest of my life to put more motivation in me to not allow them to do that (friends shouldn't be like that but I needed more motivation). Not to be rich and miserable but to be rich and happy. I don't mind being miserable for a good few years for the trade for riches but if I have to have a miserable life to keep up with riches then no. My main motivation is cars, cars and cars. I lust for them, there's not a day where I can't not dream of myself driving a Porsche 911 GT3 (991) on my bus journey to school.
(Any time I talk about money I'll always put into USD because although I'm from the UK it'll just make it far easier for everyone else to understand because from what I've seen there aren't many here from the UK.)
That's just me.
Thank you
