Firstly, don’t worry about getting rich. Get away from those people as fast as you can. In order to do this you don’t need to become rich, you just need a normal amount of money to pay rent & the bills. After you have sufficiently gotten away and become independent, gained some confidence, clarity, and peace of mind from being away from the toxicity you can than start to think about getting rich and taking moves from there.
I wish this sentiment was more prevalent on this sub. If aim for billions, you’re going to come away very disappointment. Even a million/year has a 1% chance of success for the vast majority of people. Focus on what financial independence means for you, in your immediate world, and then grow from there.
One percent for a million a year is generous by a whole order of magnitude.
Absolutely agree, but I feel it's easier for the average person to think of 100 people in a room and accept that, at best, only one of them has a chance of earning over a million a year, puts goals in contrast. By comparison, earning $100k a year is orders of magnitude more likely.
