When you're youngest, the number one strategy is to try to start something around the thing you enjoy the most because you have the most time to invest. At this point around that strategy, there's nothing there's nothing greater in the world than loving what you do and supporting the lifestyle that you want. And the best way to do that is to start as early as possible because you have years that you can put in to try to get there. It's much harder when you're 42 and have all these expenses, it's still the right move at 42 as a side hustle until you can go off of your actual business and do it.

But listen to me and listen to me. Good: build a media company around your biggest passion, or flip stuff around your biggest passion: flip sports cards Pokemon cards, sneakers, clothes, or start the Number One podcast and Instagram and YouTube channel around that subject Media Or retail around the thing that drives you the most.
