I Wanted To Buy My Freedom At A Young Age
"Well, I was already pretty focused, I knew I wanted to buy my freedom at a young age because i grew up without much money and I did not like it. So, I wanted to buy my freedom, so I spent most of my time doing what I loved, which was the stock market, the investments markets, I should say. And when you do what you love and spend a lot of time and energy at it, sometimes you are successful." - in a recent interview, when asked about getting rich at a young age
