Hey guys,

I know it's been awhile and I have completely given up on this forum years ago as life shifted gears and I wanted to obtain education. Even though, today I am still in process of obtaining my education (this time it's masters in finance) with graduation date of next July, I have found with recent big things that happened in my personal life from every angle possible that I needed to get back into this forum and the mindset. Just to mention, nothing crazy happened, I am now 25 and realizing that I am destined for better than being another 9-5 employee for the rest of my life.

Looking forward to becoming part of this amazing community once again.

Cheers!

What career plans do you have with that masters degree? Any luck?

Honestly, I just wanted to obtain education in a field that actually would cover the expenses of my endeavors in the future as I never seen myself working every day for someone, what I didn't know is how quick it will happen and being in prime years right now I can actually diverge between income source and new ideas. So, no luck in figuring out the side of finance I really like.

I got amazing opportunities to try (intern) for nearly every field in finance I wanted to including advising, investment, corporate, and now starting corporate (entertainment) for Walt Disney in their finance department.

Finance is very dry to me, but I am however planning on implementing my business idea with finance knowledge I currently have and obtained before it is forgotten and luckily I have a great support around me at the moment if any questions arise whether it is finance, programming, and even law.

It is nice to see a young man who has enough confidence and a positive attitude towards entrepreneurship.
Always remember one thing, you will get some huddle while starting your carrier and it's obvious but never give up or never de-motivate yourself. Because those hurdles will give you some valuable experience and take you to the path of success. Every time, when you are facing some issues then understand you are going to learn something new.

All the best!!

So ask yourself three questions, if you want people to read your comments ever again vs. using the forum block function :

1. Was this necessary to say?
2. By me?
3. Right now?

Sometimes you need a break to find yourself. Pick up MJ's new book, shake the dust off of your ambitions, and settle in :

@Vigilante is on point. Get MJ’s book and get to work. Finance is dry if your want it to be dry. I’ve made millions with my finance knowledge by borrowing other people’s money for our deals. Every piece of knowledge that can help you go fastlane is good. Keep it up! Look forward to seeing your progress.
