What a story man. My first job out of law school was door dash. I took the bar and was devastated when I didn't pass the first time, especially because my wife and I were both door dashing and I felt like I was failing her by failing to provide. Thanks be to God, my wife, support from friends and family, I was able to get with an awesome tutor and passed the second time around. I'm now at a firm that I would've never imagined being at and have my door dash mask in my office as a reminder. Great work as always Grahm.

It's not modesty, it's financial literacy. The Strad is smart as hell if you haven't worked that out already ;0) Warren Buffett started out at 11 yrs old with like 100 bucks. As he famously said in an interview if you would've invested that 100 bucks in the stock market back then (some 70 yrs ago?) and left it there, with an average return of 7% per year, today that hundred bucks would be worth almost a million, and that's even with all the stock market crashes. So how much is spending nearly ten bucks in Starbucks every day gonna set you back?? That's almost $70 per week, almost $300 per month!!

When my niece went off to college, she came home for Thanksgiving. All the small talk later, she proclaimed that she drank a couple of Starbucks coffee's a day @ $4.25 each. I asked what she was eating, to hear the usual college stuff Ramen noodles. Why are you eating that crap, because it's cheap was the response. I purchased for her, a cappuccino/espresso maker, some half&half and ordered some coffee flavors sent to her dorm room. Holidays and events for her, I'd re-up the flavors and some dark roast coffee and she hadn't drank Starbucks again until she graduated with her doctorate.

Honestly a very wholesome video. I had chills going down my spine at so many points in the video.

Hope all is well and have a great one!
