His edict is correct...you are what you are make of your life..no question..nothing new there
two caveats
one is China is something folks here seem to forget..crony Socialist pseudo capitalism far more rigged than here.you can die you make the wrong decisions and piss off or not pay the right folks..zero Justice
financial success at the expense of family is no success for me...i paid that price with my first set of family.it wasn’t worth it... not even close
I wish all young go for the brass ring freepers the best of luck...i sure took advantage of my 20s and 30s
reach your dreams but if you’re alone at the top whats the point
just an old mans looking back perspective...and I’ve done ok but I’d live in a trailer in the sticks eating potted meat and cheap crackers if it meant keeping my wife and five children close versus being truly rich..i know super rich..usually family is compromised...some private jet sorts I have known just live from continent to continent with tutors and take family along
like liveaboard yacht life
