When I worked at BCG, I worked for one of the top companies in the world. Thousands of people apply for a handful of spots each year. You graduate college and start working directly for CEOs. You make six figures easily, and the path to <$1M a year is 10 years and very straightforward. It’s

Is it bad if I tell my CEO to go fuck himself? Seriously, is it? One thing that has always helped me in my career in speaking my mind and being super transparent. People I work with constantly tell me I’m one of the most transparent people they’ve worked with. I just had a call

Progress is really slow. Yesterday, my fiancee and I were talking about the progress we’re making. We are so very on track to retiring at 30. That feels monumental. You would expect that each day for us feels like a rocket ship and we are barely hanging on for the ride. You’d be forgiven for

I’ve fallen behind on writing these posts, which is the exact opposite of what I want to do. I preach consistency as a general rule in business and life, but I haven’t been consistent here. The large reason here is the little baby. We love him so much, lack of sleep and all. Until he

Jeez, it’s been a few days. I’m working my way through my big ass list of shit to do. I apologize for falling behind here; not my intention. It’s Tuesday. I think my last post here was Thursday. My bad team. I’m feeling feisty right now even though I’ve fallen behind. I’m going to keep

I’m going to say something controversial. The attitude that successful people “got lucky” is exceptionally naive. It also shows that the person saying this has never actually seen a successful person in the making. They see the Ferrari, but they don’t see the work in process. I am going to be successful. Wildly successful. Retired

Things are busy. I’m so heads down that I’m barely able to think about the future, where things are going, and how to get there. That’s unlike me. But for now, I just need to push my way through. Once I’m all the way through these two projects I’m balancing, I’ll be able to pop
