1.) Start your own business. You should move heaven and earth to do this. Take risks. Try multiple times.

3.) If you can't pull off the other 2, and you are going to work for someone else, you need to have a corporate role in the upper 2%. This usually means enhancing your education. Don't get a law degree or an MBA or any Masters from a non-elite university. Only from top schools.

This also takes debt to afford those schools unless you come from wealth.

Also, you need to work your arse off. A MINIMUM of 6 full days a week, every week. No exceptions. Many weeks, you will need to work 7 full days. No one ever tells you this is necessary. It is necessary. Send your family on vacation. You need to stay home and work.

This is stupid
