I’ve been saying that number out loud since my thirties — long before I had a real plan to back it up. I spent years in corporate roles, taking on more responsibility and making more money… but I never upgraded my lifestyle. Same habits, same priorities, just quietly building. Then I joined a startup where equity was part of my compensation. I truly believed this was the key. We’d sell in four years, I’d cash out, and retirement would be taken care of. Four years passed. Then six. No sale. And with the changing landscape, it became doubtful there ever would be one. A year ago, I was miserable. I was burned out, relying on a payout that might never come, and I didn’t even have a backup plan. I felt stuck, helpless, and honestly… lost. In January 2025, everything shifted. I came across @adrian_pii channel and it changed my life - overnight! I realized something important: my money was spread everywhere — different platforms, different investment types — and I didn’t even know how much I had in total. I consolidated everything into a self-directed investing account and bought into about 60% covered calls, 40% growth and finally saw the full picture clearly. That visibility gave me confidence. Confidence to pivot. Confidence to let go of the corporate world. Confidence to resign without the package I had been clinging to. As of November 2025, I’m spending six months in Mexico with my partner and our dog, and summers in Toronto. I’ve never felt this free. Or this happy. Here’s to the next chapter. 🏖️✨

I came across @adrian_pii channel since 2020. After that I sold my rental property around 2022,2023 and invest cover call ETF. Now I am free by 45.
