All right, we have a question. What would you say to advise a teenager about financial freedom? Cool. There's a few different ways to get to financial freedom. Method number one is you have a very high paying job and you save a load of money and you put it into investments and this is often known as FIRE, financial independence retire early. So there's the whole FIRE community on the internet about this stuff. The other approach to financial freedom is strike it big with a startup. You could try and build a really high growth startup, raise loads of money from venture capital and sell it for a load of money and now you're financially free because you sold your company for tens of millions. My personal favorite approach to financial freedom is to build a lifestyle business. A lifestyle business is a business that gives you the freedom and the flexibility that you want while being able to do something you love. So for example, I have a lifestyle business. I make a good money from my business every year. What I get to do is make videos like this and make YouTube videos and do workshops and teach and write books and stuff, which is the stuff I enjoy doing and to be honest, almost all of it actually is the stuff that I would do anyway, even if I had like a 100 million in the bank. And so if you can build a business around the kind of work you actually want to do as long as you have the right set of skills. You can watch videos on the internet. There's lots of free stuff on YouTube. You can read books. You can take courses. It's not going to happen quickly and it's not going to be easy. There's no such thing as get rich quick and there's no such thing as get rich easy. It takes a long time and takes consistency, but it's also fairly doable if you are following the right path and you're learning the right set of skills. That is what I would say to a teenager who would like to be financially free.
