I said, yes, Mr. Roan.
Wow.
You earned that right.
There's that sort of thing.
But Mr. Roan at 16 convinced me that I could do it.
And I set a goal of retiring financially at age 25.
All right.
And I told my friends and one of my buddies told his dad and his dad had to come to Jesus meeting with us.
And he sat me down.
He said, listen, son, let me tell you why it can't happen, won't happen, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And of course, he was an expert with money.
He worked for the city.
Yeah, yeah.
The most expensive advice is free advice from a poor person.
No two ways about it.
I love that.
By rights, though, then, you flip that over, the cheapest advice is free advice from a rich person.
So, you know, come to your rich uncle and keep getting more advice.
But so what happened was, and technically he was correct though, Sean, technically the 16 year old version of me could not achieve financial freedom.
What he was unwilling to understand and what he wasn't willing to see in me is that I could grow into a person that could achieve that.
