Financial independence.

2) The other advice I would give you besides going out in the real world and finding like minded people is, look at the internet. And I don't just mean look at the internet, I mean really get to know what you are looking at and learn to decipher bullshit clickbait/advertisements from actual methods asap. Otherwise you fall into the trap of being the consumer that I talked about earlier. You don't want to be a consumer or an employee, you want to be the man of the hour and not some mindlessly clicking, money wasting, time wasting human being. So you really need to acquaint yourself at what you are looking at really fast and question, is this guy leading me on? Is he blatantly advertising some program in front of my face? You need to learn that no programs or apps or seminars or books are going to make you rich. And even if you sign up for them, be prepared to be sold half truths and lies. What you need to do is stay away from YouTube completely. All YouTube is bad and it is completely infested with these methods. So then you may ask, what good on the internet is truly left? There is a lot of good left that is being hidden in plain sight just so people who have learned and adopted methods from these sites don't refer you to them so that you can pay for them in a $5000 seminar instead! The good that is left are forums. Read lots and lots of forums. Money making forums. People are talking about dropshipping, Amazon/eBay, private labeling, streaming, coding, Instagram, social media and all other kinds of money making methods relevant in our generation today. Something that the old heads don't want you to see because they only could wish such platforms and opportunities existed in their day and age so that they could exploit. Well thankfully, we are a part of this awesome generation and the information has been relayed and described by people with REAL LIFE experiences, all the ups and downs, the twists and turns, what could have been done better and etc, all for free on these such forums! Whereas YouTube gurus and other article based websites would deliver you the same information compartmentalized in huge fees. Tai Lopez kind of thing. If you want books these people have many. But what you will learn, not a single dime. Go to the forums on the internet. Places where real conversations about money and money making methods exist and not some vague advice about handling your time properly. Everyone knows they need to handle their time properly. That doesn't make you a billionaire. So yeah, you need to scroll the internet with a filter, similar to the filter many advocate here on trp about not giving Instagram hoes attention. You need to apply the same logic to money making gurus and the clickbait side of the internet. You shouldn't be giving these "experts" any time of the day. For all you know, they could be selling drugs and using their seminars and workshops as a "front" for how they made their money. You don't know these people. So don't trust no one. Pay attention to the methods and not the personality behind the method. That's why forums are great. You never see a person's face or the way he looks or the tone of his voice that he talks to sway your opinion about him in one direction or the other. You only see an avatar talking about a particular idea or method they have, that they tried and it got them to X. And if the idea, sounds good and within your capabilities, then give it a shot following the blueprint he has laid out to you and see how far you go. Then you can tweak things and adjust as you go along. Making money is all trial and errors and remember there is more than one way to skin a cat.

Sorry if none of this made sense. It's 3am and I'm high AF and decided to go all out on this one lol.

The most important piece of advice I can give you is stay away from the YouTube gurus, the books that tell half truths, and the people who create false hope. These are just money and time wasting exercises that you will gain little to nothing out of. Sure, a 90 page book may look appealing, but what use is it when it tells you to start a business and invest but doesn't actually detail a blueprint for you to get started. Finance books are good and all, but don't necessarily translate into the real world. The only ways to ever break through with the financial success you are aiming for is by two ways:

1) By going out in the real world and meeting like minded people who are hoping to achieve the same goals you set out to achieve. You are very fortunate in this regard, because you have mentioned that you have just finished law school and passed the bar examinations. I don't know if you actually realise what this entails, but I will break it to you anyway; it entails that you will be surrounded by lots and lots of highly ambitious people and "BALLERS" your entire life. Congratulations, you are a part of the fraternity that only people less educate could ever dream of (not that having an education means anything when it comes to financial independence, it really doesn't). In fact, I would even argue that outside of investments and other business ventures, I don't see why you can't make a million dollars just out of your job alone. Have you ever looked into the lawyer job offerings in Dubai? Some of them are currently offering £100,000 plus with ZERO tax. Might be something you would want to look into. Meeting like minded people irl who aspire for financial success is so pivotal when it comes to your own financial success. Ever eavesdropped on conversations in public or in the train? Broke people are always hanging out with other broke people talking about how shit their life is on the way to the bar to get pissed because "what else can they do?" Or other people talking about mediocre gigs they did to earn some money on the side and that it was a "cool gig." As a person who strives for financial freedom, you don't want to be friends with these kinds of people or at least talk to them about money because you are higher than them in this regard. You are past all the fun and games at this stage of your life. You want to make large doe, so you got to start thinking like someone who wants to make large doe. And you chose the best professional to do it, because there is no bigger hustlers on the planet than lawyers. I hate to say it but these people would even defend a criminal and attempt to distort facts just to make doe. We've all seen it many times on the media. It's just the way it goes. Unfortunately, there is no morality in making money and this is what sets a part the workers and the marks. You also have to realise that and come to terms to lose a bit of your mortality and empathy as a human being just to make it to the top. Because if you don't, there is a brick wall. Just like any other aspect of life like dating or whatever, there is a hierarchy that you just can't break if you don't fall into the upper 20%. The same goes with making money or anything else. You got to play by the rules of the game and take from the examples of those before you. You can't rewrite the rules and try to make things more conducive to your own morality of your way of thinking. If you do that, you will lose money, lose your life or both. Money is a serious thing you know, and it's perhaps the biggest of all hierarchies no one wants you to break. Just imagine if every man was walking around with ungodly amounts of money. Money is true power, it allows you to bypass all the rules of the red pill and allows you to be the biggest dick on the planet without giving a fuck. No man is meant to have ungodly power and that's why society is driven in such a way that we are always being grouped and advertised to as the employees and consumers, dependant on other people to have our stake in the world. What can be more insulting to someone's manhood than that? Back in the times of the ancients, we had dudes who made a living off their own independent talents. They didn't depend on no man to make bread. If you weren't a hunter with a rifle going up into the mountains and bringing back animal hide, meat or horns to sell as commodities, you were a shoe maker in your local town neighborhood, if you weren't a shoe maker, you were a blacksmith crafting things with precious metals for people's adornment, if you weren't a blacksmith, you were a merchant who would wear a big trench coat and travel for miles on end across the river canals to buy value items to bring back to your community to sell for a profit. You get the idea. People back then were actually going out and making shit happen instead of going door to door begging people for a job with CVs attached and then going home to bite your fingernails, wondering if you did okay enough to be accepted. We need to start thinking more like these people and as we preach here on trp to have that abundance mentality, in that if no one offers me a job, I don't even care because they were only a stepping stone to my mission anyways, and not the "mission" itself. Unfortunately, you see plenty of these cucks and head honchos of our generation today (sorry for lack of better words) who most truly and most dearly and most importantly believe that their job is their "mission." It is what defines them in their daily life and that they are nothing without their job. And often times these people are given "executive" positions within companies by another man in charge, and thus they use that as an excuse to treat every other person below them within the company like a dick. For what? For a measly "$35,000" a year that your slave master gave you for an "executive position." The point is, don't become like these people who don't see beneath their nose. For $35,000 they are a peasant like everyone else, no matter how much they want to lie to themselves about being in an "executive position." What makes you above them though, is that you realise that there is more to life than this and that this is only a stepping stone and that you are on a never-ending journey of growth. Whereas this person may end up having the same job for years on end with no raise because of their arrogance and novel thinking and no drive for improvement because there is nothing more in life than this for them. They have already accepted their fate and settled for less, and that's why they come to work to abuse everyone else because they want to make you a loser like them as well and make you settle for less as well. This is what I mean about the hierarchy that exists when it comes to making money, although this is an example on a rather small scale, still it shows how other people don't want you to make it. And it was made like this deliberately by those in charge because like I said, money is the biggest hierarchy to break into and those who got it or "think they have got it" don't want us to have it. Money is power and can you imagine how each man would be walking the face of the earth with ungodly amounts of power? Every man would be empowered and perceived as a threat. Everyone would be a king of his own nation and for the higher ups who were born into this bullshit family who started a business in the 1800s and are still profiting of it or that bullshit family who was born into some political clan, that simply can't be. The hierarchy want you to believe that you are set in your own ways since birth by your family lineage and that there is nothing you can do to escape that. This is how they keep the hierarchy guarded from outsiders. Whereas the reality is, what you do right here and right now is what counts and defines you, and making money now is easier than ever before. We don't have to go up in the mountains and hunt animals to make profit, we don't have to harvest crops in a farm and milk cows, we don't have to travel across the atlantic and back to find items to bring back into town for profit and risk our wagon being pulled over and stolen by some highway bandits, fast forward a little bit and we don't even have to have large sums of money on hand to start a huge income based business or worse yet, take out a loan.
