That's a great achievement! What career did you pursue? Do you have any other advice for people in their '20s? I hope I'm not being too forward. I'm 2Xyo and, long story short, I didn't accomplish much in the past 5 years. Hopefully I can turn the tide for the best.
Edit: Thank you! I really appreciated your detailed reply.
- toomuchtodo 9y agohigh school dropout->Junior sysadmin->senior sysadmin->managed hosting division manager after acquisition->it manager->infrastructure engineer->it manager->vp infrastructure->infrastructure engineer->cloud security architect I didn’t start saving heavily until my late 20s, so I hustled hard to save faster (day gig, consulting as much as possible for 3 years) while supporting my disabled mother. The best piece of advice I can give is save early and save more. The longer you put off saving, the harder it is to catch up. I succeeded from nothing except innate curiosity, grit, and a huge helping of luck. You can too. Edit: You’re welcome! I wish you much success.
