If you are young enough to believe you have 25 years of work ahead of you, it’s probably best to invest in yourself.
You really want to break into the non-linear part of the income distribution as early as possible. This is much easier for some than it is for others.
The best advice is to be the very best at whatever you do. You don’t have to make the NFL draft, or get into Goldman, there are hairdressers and plumbers out there with $200m self made net worth.
That’s the part nobody tells you.
The zenith of any field can potentially collect the revenue of 40% of that field. That is the fundamental nature of what capitalism is. The very best are the ones who allocate the capital.
Your education, experience and skills are inalienable, they are indivisible from you no matter what scale of failure or misfortune you might pass.
I also like this message because it frees everyone to pursue their legitimate passions.
