My mindset has always been about building wealth as opposed to getting salary.
Right.
There are a lot of different ways to build wealth, but all of them revolve around ownership as opposed to getting salaries.
When I got my first job in the U.S.,
working for Code Academy, a company that sold for half a billion dollars.
I told them, you can just like pay me enough to eat.
Just give me as much equity as you can give me.
I was paid $70,000 in New York City.
You know how painful that was?
I was living in a studio with other people.
Right.
But who cares?
Like, you know, if you're young and scrappy, like, you know, you can eat anything.
You can sleep a few hours.
You can sleep on the ground.
Who cares?
You know, you're very resilient when you're in your 20s and, you know, early 30s.
Things get a little worse after that.
But you're very resilient.
