My $1M Salary Wasn't Making Me Wealthy, So I Quit And Did This...

My $1M Salary Wasn't Making Me Wealthy, So I Quit And Did This...

Last summer, I spent six amazing weeks in Europe with my family — no Zoom calls, no emergencies, no distractions. That experience wasn’t just a vacation; it was proof that I had successfully transitioned from being a scattered moneymaker to becoming a strategic money manager.

I stopped chasing titles and started building something bigger: a micro family office that gives me freedom, control, and purpose.

This episode is part of my Foundation Series, where I guide you step-by-step through how to build and run your own micro family office. I walk you through the exact mindset shifts, lessons, and strategies that took me from corporate hamster wheel to true time ownership.

I dive into how I built a business around my wealth, instead of just trying to earn more. I explain the transition from income-focused thinking to legacy-focused planning. And I talk openly about the burnout, the mistakes, and the freedom that comes on the other side of all of it.

Whether you’re just starting to question the tech grind or you're actively seeking a smarter way to manage your money and time, I hope my story can offer clarity and inspiration. Let’s talk about how to build wealth that actually serves your life.
