This is true. You can't just be rich and not work unless you want to rely on trust funds from your parents.
If you want to be your own success, then you'll definitely have to work, and a 9-5 job is a great way to grow and learn. I'd personally never know the things i know today without ever working a real job. It gives you much experience and allows you to connect to more people too.
I like this approach. Many are afraid of a new experience, afraid of the defeat and frustration that a new experience can bring. Because of this fear, they are inactive, which I consider the most terrible act in our world. The more actions you take, the more experience you gain, and the more flexible you become. Willpower will grow with each new step taken.
Be diverse, the crypto market provides many opportunities, but to see them all, you need to have experience.
Anyway, having a lot of knowledge is the most important if you want to be more flexible with the intention to understand a lot about the field that will be faced at any time, then that way you will have a greater opportunity to get many benefits from many elements of the job. So the point is not to complain easily and be lazy, keep trying for a pleasant ending goal for old age.
