I mean, don't get me started on jet skis.

Anyway, so next one is people who are pursuing fire and they're doing it properly, they don't try to gamble their way to wealth.

That's a really important one, right?

So don't put all of your hard-earned savings in one barbecue tip that you've been given because you think it'll just instantly propel you to financial independence.

Yeah, absolutely.

I mean, it may be one in a million, but probably it's not going to be you.

And then this kind of relates to the next point is it doesn't take crazy returns, just commitment over a long period of time.

yeah and if you if you do dive into it further online you'll see that most people have a very simple investment strategy but it's just happening over 20 or 30 years of regular contributions so it's no no crazy returns no crazy strategy no guesswork involved and they've just set it up and they've focused on it over a long period of time and they've reached their financial independence goals what do you mean they're not using CFDs yeah

No Bitcoin?

No, no Bitcoin.

No marijuana stocks.

No one has any fun anymore.

Okay.

Owen's very disappointed.

Yeah.

So, okay.

So it doesn't take crazy returns.

I guess this next one here is a really good point.

Read about other people's journeys, but don't let comparisons or regrets stop you from starting your own journey.

And we talked about that.
