hey everyone welcome back to another video Journal I did a video like this not too long ago um today I had a work meeting and it was the most I have never felt this much dread in my life before and I don't know I got to a point where I was like we were talking about how we're all excited for our vacation that's all people talk about at work waiting for vacation they live to wait for vacation I said you know I only have 2 weeks of vacation and like it's 10 days that's all you
get you work your whole year to give your time in your soul to someone else to help build their company and exchange you get 10 days so it's like wow you you you're the rest of the time you're just slaving away like for a company and then you get 10 days and he said yeah Welcome to the Real World but you're still young you've barely started in this career we've only been doing it for about 3 4 years now um you know in maybe in a few years in 3 four Years you'll have three weeks
and then uh you know when you're like uh that other guy and he pointed to a colleague he said uh well you know you'll after 15 years of working you'll get four or four weeks he's about to get five what so you're telling me if I slave away and I give all my time to someone else and all the other disadvantages that come with having a 9 to5 well more eights to five because my lunch isn't paid you're telling me I can get 20 days really you know the worst part is exchanging time for money
there's commute if you have your own company you can deduct your commute to work right as an employee you're taxed before you get the money so you can't deduct anything so people think like you you're supposed to do this this is because you're taught this in school you're taught this from family from friends it's like you're supposed you're supposed to do this this is the only way I I I said this in my other video the only time like I'll recommend a traditional path is if you've got something that makes you happy that you want
to achieve I know someone who wants to become a lawyer cuz that's what they want in life and that's their their meaning to live some people want to be a teacher some people want to be a doctor and save lives then do it do that but I can't I can't get taxed the hell out of what you make before you even make it whereas if you have your own company you if you're smart with them money you can make that money grow before you pay taxes at the end of the year so you're you win
plus money's worth less as time goes on so that that tax amount you need to pay it's worth less later so it's better to pay it later than immediately when you get taxed before your salary that's when you lose the most and then you're left with nothing because the moment you quit your job like I quit Tomorrow there's nothing left you haven't built up something for yourself that you keep for yourself you you work all this time you leave and that's it they're thankful you did it for them we are left with nothing they're not
going to be like he for all the hard work you did you know we're going to pay you a monthly salary of like 10% of what you earned total just to like keep you going no no it's over my my colleague when I told him it's really depressing he says yeah well you don't think about it cuz then you'll want to die but you get older and you'll learn to suppress the feeling so you is that life is that what life's supposed to be learn to suppress the feeling of wanting to die that's not nice
I'm happy I'm not a sad person I have big Ambitions Big Dreams working for someone else and thinking it's the only way is wrong and I can't do it I know a lot of people people in the comments will be like well then prove it or uh yeah well you just need to accept it I think that's just the consensus people say you well you just need to accept it that's what my colleagues were saying you just need to accept that's normal life because that's what they've been told I'm sorry maybe I I dream in
color but I'd much rather do that than black and white you know I don't care about money I want time I 10 hours every day is gone that not no it's never been about the money I don't care about money I give me cut my salary in half I don't care I want control over time when you I'm at the office and there's no work left to do and it's 3: p.m. and you do this waiting for 5:00 p.m. to come and you feel your soul slipping away like just wasting away School teaches you that
failure is a bad thing the moment you go to school you're told an F you fail it's bad failure start like you fail once it's over you have to restart it's done that's not true failure is a part of life it's important that how do you learn to skate you you fall how do you learn to ski you fall you get back up that's what's important failure Is Not a Bad Thing Thomas Edison did not fail a thousand times he found a thousand ways not to make a light bulb it's not important I'm not I'm
not going to let failure be a deterrent anyways that's all for this video I might do more journals like this in the future if you like this let me know see you
