I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of building wealth in a way that allows for both personal freedom and meaningful impact. On one hand, I want to secure my own future maybe buy a place near the coast to surf more often but I’d also love to support causes I care about, like arts education or clean energy initiatives.
The tricky part is figuring out how to balance riskier investments with stable, long-term growth. How do you all approach this? Do you lean more toward aggressive investments early on and then shift to conservative options, or do you mix strategies from the start? I’d love to hear how others weigh these choices, especially if you’re also juggling personal dreams and giving back. Any lessons learned or pitfalls to avoid?
