Year 2010: I'm 20 years old. Just graduated high school. Got a one-way bus ticket from shitty Allentown, PA to New York City. Find work as a line cook in a Jamaican joint in Brooklyn. Quit after two months. I make and lost a small fortune in some multi-level marketing businesses. Hustling on Uber, Handy, and Fiverr.
Year 2015: Still hustling on Uber, Handy, and Fiverr to build wealth. My roommate has a connection with a vape fluid business. I become an entrepreneur and start selling vape cartridges to the smoke shops throughout the city.
Year 2020: I've expanded my distribution network to more than a dozen smoke shops. Still hustling on Uber but fuck Handy and Fiverr, man. My aunt on my father's side passed away just before last Thanksgiving. My father passed away the year before, so his $100k inheritance goes to me. I pay off my credit card debit and landlord.
With the money left over, I buy 0.4 Bitcoins, 700 Ripple, and 12% ownership interest in a fine-dining restaurant in midtown Manhattan called Bombay Grill House for $85k. I'm making active income through my vape distribution, and now, also passive income through my share of profits from Bombay Grill House, which has overwhelming positive reviews and 4+ stars on Google, Yelp, and TripAdvisor.
You: Sad virgin working dead-end job at Staples / Best Buy / Pizza Hut / Home Depot. Spending your paycheck collecting Magic the Gathering cards. Own nothing; even your shitty, used car is under your parent's name.
Me: A hustler, crypto-investor, and entrepreneur. Making shrewd business moves. Accumulating assets. My money's making money. Building an empire. On my way to becoming a millionaire, but certainly already top 1% of Sup Forums in terms of wealth.
