https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✔️" title="Groot vinkje" aria-label="Emoji: Groot vinkje"> The goal of this thread is not to brag but to inspire. Like @AlexHormozi says, I have nothing to sell you. This will be a mix of successes and failures I’ve had to reach a financial goal most could only dream of. Read all the way through and you may catch a golden nugget.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😐" title="Neutraal gezicht" aria-label="Emoji: Neutraal gezicht"> Growing up I had it rough however this is not a pity party so I& #39;m going to skip to high school time. This is when I first knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur. All my friends were going the traditional route and I knew I& #39;d rather die than sit in a cubicle at some shitty job.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💻" title="PC" aria-label="Emoji: PC"> At 14 I wanted to be a YouTuber so I saved up all my money and built a gaming PC. Once I had it I realized I had no more money and that& #39;s when my first google search for "How to make money online" happened. I tried a lot of stuff without any success. Until one day...

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🐐" title="Geit" aria-label="Emoji: Geit"> I saw an ad by @ZssBecker for a company called SourceWave. If you& #39;re an OG you& #39;ll remember that this was his SEO company. I credit my entire mindset shift to Alex because after watching his videos, I now knew an actual way of how to make a million dollars.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📈" title="Grafiek met stijgende trend" aria-label="Emoji: Grafiek met stijgende trend"> He taught how to do "Rake & Rent Sites" which is basically creating a niche business website and rent out the pages to local businesses. Although I wasn& #39;t successful with SEO it gave me the vision for ecom and played a pivotal role in my future.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😤" title="Triomfantelijk gezicht" aria-label="Emoji: Triomfantelijk gezicht"> Fast forward to the age of 18. I was a really bad kid. Getting into fights, selling drugs, etc. I gave up an athletic scholarship to Notre Dame for swim and my mom had enough of me and kicked me out of the house. I knew at this point it was time to get on the grind.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏" title="Gevouwen handen" aria-label="Emoji: Gevouwen handen"> At first I got into Amazon FBA and quickly realized it& #39;s a pretty unscalable business model. THEN I was introduced to this beautiful platform called Shopify. Back in 2017 there was such shitty courses and youtube videos from fake gurus so I had to figure it all out myself.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦‍♂️" title="Facepalmende man" aria-label="Emoji: Facepalmende man"> Back then I didn& #39;t even know that you could rebrand a store if it didn& #39;t work so I would literally shut down a store and re-open a new one every single time. Just goes to show how lucky you are to have all this free info today. But it wasn& #39;t easy starting out.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😨" title="Bang gezicht" aria-label="Emoji: Bang gezicht"> It took me 6 stores before I finally saw some decent "success". I was selling bracelets on meme pages at the time and I remember hitting a profitable $250 day and thinking HOLY SHIT. Little did I know, my life was about to completely change in 3 months.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤑" title="Gezicht met geld in de mond" aria-label="Emoji: Gezicht met geld in de mond"> In March of 2018, I had two big winners hit at the exact same time. Looking back, I should have just focused on one of them but oh well. At the time I really didn& #39;t know how to scale and I was just doing absolute nonsense on my ad accounts. BUT it was working.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🛠" title="Hamer en sleutel" aria-label="Emoji: Hamer en sleutel"> Those winners lasted for about 3 months and then died and I was left in the same trap every of dropshipper which is inconsistent income. It was at this point I started to realize that I needed more than 1 store running so I built 3. It took another 6 weeks to find a winner.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤝" title="Handdruk" aria-label="Emoji: Handdruk"> 2018 was life changing because it showed me that I can do it. Then in 2019, my best friend Omar had his first big month and suggested we partner together on a store. He knows better than anyone that I don& #39;t trust people at all however I& #39;ve known him for a decade so I said yes.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚀" title="Raket" aria-label="Emoji: Raket"> I realized quickly that doing things 50/50 with a business partner is the way to go. Especially when you compliment each others strengths. I& #39;m more the person to get the ball rolling and just get stuff up and Omar is the type to obsess over small details and make it perfect.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💰" title="Geldzak" aria-label="Emoji: Geldzak"> I& #39;m going to take a quick break from talking about ecom and talk about crypto and stocks which definitely helped hit my financial target. For this there are two people that helped out a lot from following their calls and it& #39;s @MrZackMorris and @cymovements.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤠" title="Gezicht met cowboyhoed" aria-label="Emoji: Gezicht met cowboyhoed"> I& #39;ve profited from a few of @cymovements calls but the one I got the biggest return on is GRT which I did almost 20x. And @MrZackMorris made me a lot of bread from his calls during the $GME $AMC $SNDL days. I am very grateful to both of these guys for sharing their knowledge.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😇" title="Lachend gezicht met halo" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend gezicht met halo"> Now back to Ecom...as you know last year is when Omar and I started the Subscription revolution and put it on the map. In hindsight, I probably should have kept more quiet about it but as @iamshackelford says, I believe there is enough for all of us to eat.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥂" title="Proostende glazen" aria-label="Emoji: Proostende glazen"> Subscription based ecom has been a huge blessing and our plan is to build out a massive network of stores all with subscriptions and then when the time is right sell all of the stores to a private buyer and then sit on a beach with some baddies drinking margaritas all day.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👨‍👩‍👧‍👦" title="Gezin (man, vrouw, meisje, jongen)" aria-label="Emoji: Gezin (man, vrouw, meisje, jongen)"> After our ecom exit, I plan on investing most of the money into real estate and being a VC. At this point I am going to travel the world and eventually start a family. I didn& #39;t have a close knit family growing up so I want to create one and set the tone for future generations.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👨‍🏫" title="Man teacher" aria-label="Emoji: Man teacher"> Here are my biggest lessons so far in life:

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏁" title="Geruite vlag" aria-label="Emoji: Geruite vlag"> If you made it to this point then you& #39;re amazing. Hopefully you can see I am no different than you. I wish for all of you to be successful in life. I don& #39;t sell a course and I put out valuable tweets for free so one day we can all laugh together on a yacht. The world is yours.
