Personally, growing up, life wasn’t so easy for me. There were zero handouts. There was an ugly divorce between my parents that shattered us further financially. And by no means would there ever be a trust fund. But here’s the deal, I am forever grateful for all of it. Why? It built me into a machine. By 31, I hit coast FIRE and now I spend most of the year traveling and living what I call my rich life. I’m sharing this with you all because it wasn’t ever and will never be about the money. Yesterday evening, I walked into a restaurant here in Montenegro overlooking the sunset. The waiter asked me what I wanted upon entering the restaurant as he held a menu up. My reply: “give me your best, no menu needed.” I had fresh sea bass paired with a tasty Greek salad and a glass of local wine. Investors, please do yourself a favor and stop living for money. Live life and experience it all. Money is merely a tool to allow you to experience. Now I’m here to just document my journey to $1M and share how I will be 100% work optional by 35: https://www.instagram.com/ari.gutman?xtok=MTZlYW1ldjNqaHM2bA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

Lived in a single mom household after a nasty divorce as well, things children’s should never see. No financial help from father. Invested in my education, climbed myself out of that situation and helped my mom too, turning 30 years old and on my way.330K portfolio after starting with -$107,000 line of credit debt. I can relate. Good job man, it’s an inspiration

The earlier we go thru hard times the tougher we get. It forces us to look at the real world problems and hopefully learn from them early on. Went thru very hard times myself and worked my butt off to get ahead. Thank you for sharing and good luck reaching your goals Ari.
