Hello again, FLF!
This is Bruno talking, making my second post in this awesome forum.
I'm a 22 yo from Brazil who always read about investing, money, getting rich. However, only now I decided to do something about it and change my reality. I've been working for the government for one and a half year and even though it is a great job for our society pattern (in Brazil), I'm on the, so called, rat race.
Two months ago I was walking on the dirty streets of southern Brazil and something happened. I decided to start learning about money as my old self was used to. I was reading books such as 4HWW, then I finished it and started searching for other books and came across with MJ's book. One thing led to another and now here I am, with a burning desire to quit my government job in order to work to myself and free my time.
My progress so far into the fastlane is based in a website I'm building. I hired a web designer and a web developer and they're building a website whereas I develop its content. They will finish their job at july and after that I'll sell my product to brazilian folks.
However, I don't want to wait (most part of my website content is finished) until july to start making money. I want to start as soon as I can to build something else and offer to the world. I've been struggling with it for the last 2 months and I don't seem to have any realisable(is it a word in english?) idea.
I'm even thinking about something international, since our currency is bad, as I said in my previously post.
The reason I'm posting it in education & learning forum is that I wanted you guys to share with us, some stories, link and everything you know about young guys who could, at a young age, to quit their jobs and work for themselves/retire. How would/should the people at this age behave when it comes to studying the subject?
(Older people) In addition to that, feel free to tell us what would you do if you were 22 again? From where would you start?
(only now I realized that it ended a little bit longer than I wanted, but it was cool cause I could vent off as well. sorry and thanks about that!)
Have a good one, everybody
