Transcript

having a quarter million dollar net worth at 22 is not normal. Let me repeat that, it is not normal. We all scroll on social media and see the top 1% but social media only shows you what people want you to see. In reality, most people our age have far less. Most people are just trying to figure life out, pay bills, finish school, or simply get by. So if you feel behind, take a deep breath. The only thing that matters is the direction you're headed because being behind and staying behind are two completely different things and I'll stick around and I'll help you overcome the fear of investing. Let's grow together.

Comparison is the thief of progress. Social media often shows the exception, not the norm. Stop comparing your Chapter 1 to someone else’s Chapter 20. Start where you are. 🌱📈 #PersonalFinance #investing #money #growth #wealth
