Read if you're not as rich as you want. These are your actual odds at "making it" and what you must do. In the US: 1 in 1,000 make over a million a year 1 in 11,000 over 10 mil.1 in 35,000 over 20 The Truth: If you want to "make it," you must be a freak. You must be an absolute outlier of behavior. The hardest worker out of your entire high school class for a mil. The best person out of every high school class in your city for 10+ a year. You don’t get to keep normal. You don’t get to keep balance. If there’s 1,000 people in a room, you have to be better than 999 of them. If you want 20 mil+, there needs to be an entire 35,000-person army dead around your feet for you to make it. You. Don’t. Get. To. Be. Like. The 999 (or the 34,999). Stop thinking you get to be human and balanced. By default you will be completely unrelatable to anyone you meet or know. You are going to need to operate and move differently than anyone you know. Different than all your childhood, high school, and college friends. Different than your parents and family. You will NOT meet anyone who relates to you, your sacrifices, or ideals without EXTREME effort. You are, without irony, trying to be a "chosen one." By default, 99.999% of people will not understand you and your behavior. You will be seen as extremely unreasonable. I tell you this because I meet too many people who think they can make it and still behave like a normie. They even resent this and try to find ways to make it while still being normal. But when you look at these extreme odds, you can't help but draw one conclusion... You are going to have to be extreme. You must be the 1 person in 11,000 willing to give up the most and push the hardest. Normal is done for you. Embrace your extremism. Make zero concessions. Relish in it and embrace it. Don't fight it. Lean into it. Everyone wants what you want. Everyone. But only an insanely tiny, small number of the most unreasonable, odd people will get it. If you want that to be you... Quadruple down on your unreasonable oddness. It's non-negotiable.
