Me and my buddy were life talking after shooting some pool the other night. Ive always been more entrepreneurial (however thats spelled). I have ideas.Ive read countless money books as well self help type books. Ive tried a few home business ideas. Drop shipping. sales. Ive put thousands of dollars into trading accounts, mutual funds, IRA's, and savings accounts. Ive went to real estate seminars( 1 where i drove 4 hours and slept in the car for 3 days to learn. My check for the seminar almost didn't even clear).
------But all this in the name of learning more about money. Ive looked into all these topics--Tax leans, options, futures, (not too much about stocks), internet marketing, blackjack books, texas holdem, credit card scams, credit building, interest only loans, bond latter, RIO, calls, puts, inventions, adsense, youtube, buying physical silver, 401ks for work, duplexes, excel spreadsheets, playing pool for money, posters tracking expenses and income, budget books, fungshuai, and various other topics,,,,
All to learn more about money, My other buddy said to me what he wants out of life. "Just enough money to get by and be happy".... and my reply was" why not have a shitload of money and live how you want to....eat out when you want, go where you want....There are people who really live like that. Its a real thing"
My goals in life are exactly that. "to have a shitload of money and just live"...my question is why is this such a bad plan?idea? my same friend who says i think about money too much buys lottery tickets every week(he's even in a pool for his work) he talks about his retirement for work( 40 years from now or whatever) he's always working on getting a higher paying job. and tells me all his "if i won the lottery I would...." stories....it seems we both "THINK OF MONEY TOO MUCH"...its just that we think of how to get said money differently.....I understand that money can come from different places non of which are a pay roll.
I don't think its the money that drives me...but the freedom...I just want to see everything i said i could do come to fruition. you can have your secure job....
