man this video helped so much, I am giving my GCSEs in a few weeks but I've been watching your videos for so long and it's truly influenced me to plan my career path and they have taught me so many valuable lessons. it's not like other videos too, where normally i'd get bored after a couple mins. you make such engaging videos and im sure youve inspired so many other young people with your advice and videos, really appreciate it big time, thank you

I don’t think I could thank you enough; this is what I was struggling with for so long. I'm in my first year and had quite a few spring week experiences, and was going towards the whole Investment Banking route. However, I realized how much it's already affecting my relationships and mental health. I decided that it wasn't for me, and I wanted to have more balance. This video has helped so much to reinforce this idea for me. I've always been an overachiever, and it's so weird trying to tell myself that I don't need to go for the most difficult thing. It’s okay to go into a field that isn't as competitive or prestigious, and just prioritize my happiness

Hey Afzal, this is another great video as always! Even at people my age and younger I feel this is something we all struggle with. Everyone has big goals but sometimes the ‘easy and comfortable’ life is often portrayed as a failure on social media

Thanks! Totally agree!

Easiest advice I would say is acquire assets as soon as possible. Real estate, stocks, ownership of businesses. Quickest way for lazy person now will be just buying and holding bitcoin for 5 to 10 years. If 0.1 bitcoin could make average person financially stable.

Top video as ever! Not related to this, but was wondering if you'd do a video on your thoughts on private/grammar schools vs state and whether you'd want to send your children there. Curious what your take is on this seeing as you're someone who managed to make it in the corporate world and later in entrepreneurship while having gone to a state school.

It's never too late. It just means you'll be a little later than you could have been but in the grand scheme of things it's not that significant. Think in decades not in single years.

Hi Afzal,I hope you are well. Kealytok recommended for me to reach out to you. Hi Bro, Kealytok recommended to reach out to you. I wanted to ask: my background is I contracted in GTM strategy, consulting, fintech ops. No degree, aiming for doing imc, is it possible for me to break into buy/sellside? I also have some portfolio management experience of TMT equities. But unsure if I am doing it correct in my CV as I mention "Portfolio Management - Equities". I just wanted to reach out for some advice. Thank you.
