So she's a real piece of work, my mom.
She's awesome.
But they had no money.
I was like, well, and she sat me down and she showed me, you know, what was going on.
She showed me they made X and there are expenses and
you know, our rent and so forth.
And at the end of the month, we had a little bit left over.
It's for a college fund.
And I was appalled because I was like, it didn't add up to me.
Something seemed like it was off.
How could two such brilliant people, hardworking people, educated people, industrious people,
Happy broke.
It didn't make sense.
And it wasn't long after I think it started to occur to me there were certain other elements that were necessary to achieve financial success.
And one of them was taking risk.
My parents were completely risk averse, depression mentality.
And also they were really against depression.
any type of sales or marketing type ideas they just shunned them and thought they were evil and because of that they were never able to use their services or market their services their wares so to speak so they worked for other people they worked for a paycheck and they struggled badly so i think a lot of that went into my makeup of like what it really means to to succeed financially it's not just about hard work hard work of course is required
It's not just about education.
Education is usually important, not always, but, you know, at least self-education of some sort.
