I recently watched a video published by MJ on YouTube called "How to go from flat-broke to filthy-rich". It was a very practical video and I was just wondering how to apply this to my own life. I'm a 18 year old guy from Sweden and I'm just about to finish high-school. Since I still live with my parents and have basic needs such as food, shelter and so on covered by them, should I start at learning a specialised skill or start from step one ? ( which would be a basic job for those of you who haven't watched the video )

Also I'm thinking about joining the military for a couple of years and have been training hard to meet the requirements for a SF unit. But afterwards, I am considering college. College is free here in Sweden, but is it worth it? And what should I study as an aspiring entrepreneur? I'm thinking about studying computer science or business laws since both of these could be useful later on when building my fastlane business.

Thanks for any answers or advice! Would be super helpful
