Assuming:
A) your goal is to reach 8-figure net worth within 7-8 years
B) you’re willing to work your ass off (obviously!)
C) you’re able to be one of the best out there AND adapt to new technology
In other words: with the above criteria and a strong desire to learn and apply a valuable analytical skill set as you become an entrepreneur, is accounting a particularly good choice?
Hot takes welcome!
10M+, enough to make a small difference in the world and invest in businesses and causes that create meaningful change. Enough to not worry about my own finances and to commit to my more meaningful passions. Enough to sort out my family who’ve always struggled. 10M+ is a lot for "average - something I’ve frankly never aspired to be! The work, the game, the drive, the big vision is part of what makes me happy. And supreme ruler? Seriously, that’s just petty. If you think supreme rulers have 10M dollars, you’re tragically misinformed; the “real” sharks are out there with trillions or multiple billions of dollars, and in the ocean of wealth, 10M is a small pond-sized reserve. I’m not here saying “I want this but it will make me unhappy and careless about life!”, which I’m sure you’re acutely aware of.
I guess you misread my comment entirely. I used the word “arbitrary” several times. It makes no difference if your goal be “10M+” or trillions, that’s entirely besides the point. And assuming that the world is just waiting and begging for you, of all people, to rise and invest and make the world a better place… Seriously… That’s one heck of a savior syndrome case you’ve got going on, not to mention just arrogance in general. If you want to make the world a better place, just do it. Saying someone else has trillions so excusing yourself of amassing billions or millions as “not being that bad,” what a joke. You yourself attempt so much to hide behind a mask of arbitrary ideals you’ve picked up from here or there, and yet all the while have no clue who or what you are.
