i have this russian friend and we are really close, been friends since 9th grade (wer'e both 28 rn).
he is a go-getter, he won't let failure stand in his way, and unlike me- he got a positive mindset even when shit gets bad.
i have a bad mindset, every little failure makes me want to die, so ill give him credit where its due.
he spent the last 3 years acquiring certs and he almost finished his diploma. however, he is a serious,serous debt.
im not gonna roll in numbers here, but its around 50-100k$ in debt. (rough estimation).
looking at his mindset, i can tell that this debt thing is not an issue for him (he keeps saying he'll get out of that debt). he used to be a heavy drinker because of that.
its been 3-4 years now and hes still in debt. and hes not closing the gap fast enough.
so with all of that go-getter mentality of his, is he really where he wants to be in life? he is spending enormous amounts of money on shit that he doesn't need (fancy leased car,gadgets and toys,new clothes etc).
he is not willing to admit that he made a mistake by starting a business, and that's whats upsetting. - just admit that you are shit at making money and confess it, be honest with yourself.
me on the other hand? i don't take many risks, but when i do they are very calculated- i write down most expanses like a jewish shop-owner, but it helps.
