Making a Millionaire

Should He Give Up Job Stability to Build His Dream?

Colin’s story is a masterclass in early financial success and the tough decisions that come next. After living at home and saving 90% of his income, he built a $200K net worth by age 28. But when he analyzed his own department’s profits, he discovered he was literally working himself out of a job. Now, with a small emergency fund and a passion for financial coaching, Colin faces the choice many dreamers wrestle with: take a big risk to build something from scratch or keep the stability while growing his passion on the side. In this episode, we explore how to weigh risk vs. reward, plan for the unexpected, and stay motivated when your money milestones start to feel routine.
