“Feeling like someone else owns your time,your emotions, your life is horrible.”
That’s so true.
No one owns you, you can get out then you want
3 things about "money". #1 There is no money. We are trading debt instruments and that's NOT money, That's all you have to know.
Welcome to my reality
Great video, I've been interested in investing ever since I came across articles of people making up to $150,000 and more in this period, thanks for the video but is it really possible for a retail investor to achieve this in months?
I've purchased numerous stocks in individual firms. Because there are so many stocks that will skyrocket in the long run, it is currently safe to buy in on ETF and ride it out. Due to fud, I sold out early, but then retraced my ways and re-invested $350,000 with a financial advisor who manages my account. I received an 82% return last year and will see where it goes this year.
that's quite impressive, you surely made a good bit of money. I myself invested in warren's BRK-A stock quite pricey but totally worth it.
I just started a few months back, I'm going for long term, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it, who’s this advisor you work with ?
'Carol Vivian Constable’is the coach that guides me. She’s a verified coach and she helped me see that returns can be made in both bull and bear markets. She covers things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded and looking at ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk, lots of things like that.
'Carol Vivian Constable, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
I quit a several hundreds K job in 2006 to meditate and live in a remote place in the mountains with very little financial ressource. My only regret: not having done it earlier.
At least that job gave you the means to 'retire'. If I had the means I would have done it years ago as well
@@radjalomas8854 "very little financial resource"...
Easy when you’ve got several hundred thousand stacked.
It’s not easy. It’s hard giving up all that income. It’s hard giving up material things to live a more minimalist life. To think that if you work 5 more years you’ll have x amount more + more bonuses + more pay and then you just stop? You wouldn’t understand unless you’re in that position.
How many hours a day do you meditate now?
A job honestly doesn’t gives you the time, space and opportunity to chase your dreams and achieve your goals. From personal experience i can tell you working a serious job is modern day slavery. they pay you a small amount for doing a significant amount of work and promises you promotion. Best advice make investments and take calculated risks that would guarantee your success .
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money.
Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are alot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment
@@PhilipDunk Could you kindly elaborate on the advisor's background and qualifications?
My advisor is “Vivian Carol Gioia” highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversity and is considered an expert in the field. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market..
"Money isn't an adequate compensation for what the job takes from us". That is incredibly insightful. Thank you for this gem of wisdom Jean.
Cheers Chris! If it’s striking u like it did me maybe some changes up the road ahead for u! 🤭
@@JeanVoronkova so I thought over everything and have officially quit my job, today was my last day working at the bank. Thank you for reigniting my spirit with the vigor I needed to take a leap of faith and begin working towards life on my terms.
That quote is quite true yet painful because no boss will ever pay you right.
Definitely agree.
Agreed! Thank you so much!
The points are,
1. Save Money
2. Control your Expenses
3. Invest/Reinvest that Savings to Build Your Dream Life.
THANK YOU.
For point 1 and 3 you need money... which comes from job. So what is she saying?
Hitesh C don’t waste your money. Save and invest.
Thanks dear
haahhahah
I quit my 15 year job as a nurse at an oncology hospital to work as a traveler nurse. Now I travel the country, get paid for food, housing, transportation, work 3 or 4 days a week, for three months continuously, then take vacation whenever I want. I get to choose where to work, the specialty, schedule, location and I even negotiate how much to get paid for three months. I choose if I want beach, mountains, city, country, snow...I travel with my two dogs, I sold all, gave away what I couldn't sell, and only kept what I can fit in my RAV4. I learned to live a simple lifestyle with just the necesary. I also learned to save money and to invest. Now, I spend less and save more. I got rid of my debts and financial responsibilities. It feels great to have less. I have less stress and feel happier and content with myself. I feel so good I asked myself why didn't I do this earlier. I am taking two months off in a few weeks, spending one month in Europe backpacking. I'm so excited for the first time to take two months off from work and not worrying about money. It feels awesome! This was the best decision ever.
"Life should be colorful and full of passion" Agree 100%
NO. Full of meaning . Passion is not enough.
I quit my 6 figure corporate job years back to decide to go to medical school.... now I'm a resident physician working ungodly hours, but I've never been happier to be serving patients rather than trying to increase the bottomline for some meaningless corporation. The cliché is true "do what you love and never work a day in your life". Money won't buy you happiness
What specialty ?
Amen. sounds like you found your vocation!
Grats.
What matter at the end of the day is your inner self fulfillments and satisfaction.
All lies 😂
What age u started?
"The real power of money is not that you can buy all sorts of things that you want. Feeling like someone else owns your time, your emotions, and your life is horrible. The real power is that you are able to buy the freedom to live on your own terms. To spend your time how you like, when you like, where you like." Very very well-said.
Freedom, not money!
@@JeanVoronkovawhat if I told u, u cna have both, and can get unlimited time too (for a cost). Wouod u be interested?
Disclaimer :don’t quit your job just bc a you tuber tells you to.
Wow, you're a miserable troll.😢 You didn't hear the part where she talked about NOT quitting your job the way the did and instead save for retirement. She shared her mistake and others shouldn't quit without a plan. Starting your own business and/or not quitting a job if they don't want to.
She can quit because she might already have a huge saving from her previous six figure monthly salary, this is definitely not applicable for those that earn a lot less than her.
@@fookkheongchin4302 Did you listen to the vid? She said she'd spent all of it and quit without thinking about her future. She said it was a mistake to quit without savings and a plan. It all depends on how much you save vs how much you make. Making solid six figure incomes over a number of years does make quitting much easier. However, you can't play keeping up with the Joneses prior to or after quitting a high paying job. I say this from my own experience investing and quitting young.
Lets support the starving craftsmen and artists over the big corporates, so we can all work on quitting and finding real happiness.
@@zeroshepard9513 people will only buy when they see a benefit in buying. Wanting to support craftsmen as a reason won't keep people patronising for a long time. But something they think adds value to their life or makes them feel a way that they want? They are more likely to buy repeatedly, regardless of whether it's from a corporate system or craftsmen.
I just quit my 200+K job a few weeks ago sold everything I have and now I'm off to the country to build my own house on a property I bought for 32k river front. It is absolutely the best and most compforting feeling I had in years : ) I have zero bills now and hrs and hrs of free time for myself to enjoy life.
Where is your 32k river front property? Flint Michigan?
Where , share please?
😅
I just quit a toxic job, cold turkey. living off my savings and also “figuring it out” 😆 cheers to everyone who quit and thank you for the video!
you'll thank yourself for being brave. Life's too short to spend it grinding away at something you hate just for the money. Money can be made in many other ways without sacrificing happiness and mental health
hi, I am here as well. I quitted my toxic job and trying to figure out what I want to do next. :)
Cheers mate!
I quit a toxic job too, driving a truck 75hrs a week with horrible associate's.
Where in this video does she actually talk about the 3 points she learned? Not everyone has the luxury of quitting a six figure job with a cash cushion as back up.
Right there with you ladies. I love the peace and quiet
I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $450k gains within months, I'm really just confused at this point.
Yes, a good number of folks are raking in huge 6 figure gains in this downtrend, but such strategies are mostly successfully executed by folks with in depth market knowledge
A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
That does make a lot of sense, unlike us, you seem to have the Market figured out. Who is this coach?
Kenna Muriel Hesseling is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
She appears to be very knowledgeable. I found her webpage and read through her resume, educational background, and qualifications, which were all very impressive. I have sent her an email detailing my financial goals.
I worked for 20+ years in high paying corporate jobs. I actually enjoyed a lot of it, got to travel around the world, and lived as expat in Jakarta Beijing and Shanghai. I focused on saving and investing and most importantly on delayed gratification. Did I REALLY need those clothes, shoes, boys toys, etc..? Going out to restaurants once a week instead of every day, etc…I think being able to delay current material gratification for the future helped a huge amount in me achieving financial independence and not wasting money, but using it to invest and compound over time.
that's very smart of you. Unfortunately in my experience most young adults in high paying corporate jobs aren't that savvy! i certainly wasnt myself.... - it was only after i quit and went to become a surf instructor that i realized the value of money and importance of saving and financial freedom. But thankfully still managed to retire at 38 in Bali now :) its been 2 years!
that's my aspiration too :) i'm also lucky i work (n start the biz) in an environment where it's not about my outer appearance, so nobody cares if i wear branded stuff or not for work, hence i can use the savings for investing
Invest in what?
Ditto!
I'm a healthcare worker for 9 years, last year my wife was laid off (helathcare worker too). I had an epiphany, that when she left..the job and money didn't fell worth it anymore..made me realize she was the reason I was waking up everyday for 😊
Do you ever feel like working in healthcare is somewhat not worth it based on how much it drains you physically and mentally?
The feeling of being “trapped” by a career is definitely real in my experience. I know that a lot of the money I spend is to distract myself from how miserable I am from doing a job I feel is largely meaningless.
Omg, love that insight… the money you spend is to distract yourself from doing the meaningless job… I can do relate!! It feels so fake, all of it..
I feel the same way working for the city. Make the most money I’ve ever made but am so unfulfilled and have a huge hole in my soul from not leaving cause I’m not sure where to go next
Well-said!! Spending to buy crap is the therapy for the unhappiness!!! Very eye opening! But how do you leave when we need health insurance!
@@claudiacanales2662 I feel our nervous system gets so triggered in these moments.... survival is very real, and our health is ofc a part of that. Find some exercises for your nervous system, and start opening to other options in your mind. Get creative. You dont have to up & leave, and that isn't really what you want, because you want health insurance in place etc.. But one thing to remember is that our salaried jobs are never as safe as we like to think they are.... fidning safety within ourselves is a powrrful journey of empowerment in all aspects of our lives!!
I can relate to that 100%. My life now as animal rescuer is far more fulfilling, deey, in fact. It's very hard work but I cannot ever imagine myself going back to my previous life in a rich country with a well-paying job. It felt so empty.
There are many things that I wish are better in my present life but I know that leaving my animals to seek relief or a less gruelling life is never be an option. I keep at my other dreams that I hope I could see through realization as well as accept that this is now my forever life - to be with animals in need.
I quit my job of 15 years two weeks ago to build my business full time. I'm so happy. I don't remember being this free since I was a little gal. I'm thankful for the revelation.
It’s an absolute high at first especially n then usually after a while reality does set in n sometimes things get a lil tough going whilst figuring out your new way but generally (seeing the other comments n my own experience) no one really regrets the quit to freedom! That feeling of independence is really quite incomparable. Congrats.
Thing is to have a vision be that person in the vision build that vision then that vision will come into reality believe you have whatever you want to have be it money be it a amazing experience be it whatever always hold onto that vision be that person that works for them selves whatever they want at any time not being tied down to a certian place or job even do what you absolutly love
@@JeanVoronkovain reality won’t many just go from fire to frying pan.
I'm blessed i always loved my jobs. Loved working in HR; loved my "career" as stay home 💕mom for 15 years, and now love being a middle school teacher.
HR is the reason most hate their job. DEI is poison. I guess that makes a smooth transition to a teacher for those involved.
I quit (retired) when the job was no longer fun and starting over was undesirable. That was the push. The pull was discovering that I had a generous pension available to me. I worked 30 years as an engineer for the same employer. I retired at 55 years old. I did volunteer work for a few years then I moved to Thailand.
You're living the dream man. Good on ya
A coworker struggled with high blood pressure for years. He dropped a lot of weight and exercised regularly but still high BP. At 53 he was on meds. Things took a bad turn at work so he decided to resign and take a year off. I ran into him three weeks after he had quit. He said his BP was NORMAL...just from quitting his job!!!!
High value jobs can take a big.chunk of your life.
So true👍👍👍💝
So can low value jobs
@@brendalg4
True! Might be worse in many cases.
I'd rather have high BP and make 6 figures than low BP and work at a shitty grocery store!
Losing my job and having bills has given me HBP
“Money controls us until we learn to control money ourselves.” So true. Thank you for sharing your insights.
Yes you fiat currency slave
This system was build for men working for their families not for women or men going solo. Plus you will never find fulfillment or enjoyment in doing hard things that punish your mind and your body. You don't have testosterone that makes all the effort feel good. You are not a man. On the other hand since the idea of building a family is becoming a thing of the past in most of the world even men are quitting for different reasons all together.
Thanks
@@statecraft3603 I don't have a lot of fiat currency. I have lots of assets though...You?
@@PAIP_Studio I'm glad I'm out of the system that is full of testosterone. Now I get to stay warm inside my little castle called home.
"Money controls us until we learn how to control our money...hit hard🎉❤
I was able to save a lot of money in 3 years. I landed a 3 year consulting gig paying over $100K a year. I reside in the mid-west where there is a lower cost of living. I lived with my Mother ( I paid her rent). During this time I also paid off my $15K student loans and $18K Jeep. Now I have zero debt, still making over $100K and able to focus on building wealth via investments, etc
Most profit comes from capital gains from owning a business. It's good to have a multiple streams of income (investments)
What really guarantees financial security is having multiple streams of making passive income
My wife and I are retiring this year with over $6,000,000 in tax deferred investments. up until 3 years ago we were 100% in the S&P. During bear markets we had a perfect plan. We got an investment manager in our corner and didn’t look at our portfolio for nearly a year. Just kept buying at low prices.
My strategies for an Early Retirement 1. Replace active income with passive income
sources (stocks/crypto) (Real Estate Rentals For Cash Flow) 2. Reduce personal operating cost
(Housing costs are typically the largest) 3. Automate income streams (Property
management, online businesses) 4. Leave the 9 to 5 =) (Success)
Forex/stock is the best investment anyone could get into. As it could make you rich in a blink of an eye.
Really I've always wanted to invest in stocks but was always discouraged. I wanna start now
The power of freedom and being able to do what you love says it all.
It doth doesn’t it
You are absolutely right, my job has been affecting my mental and physical health. Currently I'm 27 and I'm trying to build a financial income outside of my job so I can be independent by 29
It’s so great ure starting so early! I wish I had an earlier start but no complaints overall lah I’ve been very fortunate
I agree
@@JeanVoronkovanice lah😂
You should do cassettes/ talking books .your voice is so calming and soothing..am relaxed just listening to this x
I like working at a steady six figure job and in an international environment of smart, driven and impactful people. The salary is not why I'm doing it, it is the sense of completion and ability to help others. Then again, I chose a job that I like and made choices to be able to work the way I want.
She got me when she said, "You spend your time building others' businesses and companies."
At my current job, one day I got an accident, my foot was injured. But the next day after that, it was Saturday, it was weekend, the sales rise higher on weekends, they didn't allow me to take a day off because it was so important for them to earn more money on that day,
I worked alone, there was no coworker that could replace my shift.
So it was like, I sacrificed for my boss.....
But once I made a mistake, my bosses yelled at me like I mean nothing at all....
It wasn't even my mistake, it was the cashier app that they use, the app got a lot of bugs and my bosses blamed me for the bug, said it was my fault that I tried to do something that I wasn't supposed to do inside the app,
I don't know.... It just hurts me...
I’m sorry you had to go through that. And the way that you described how your boss kept blaming you for something that was not even your fault, but a bug in their app, kind of shows your boss may be a narcissist and definitely on a power trip.
I hope you can get a better job, or at least have less and less work interactions with that boss as much as possible.
Ouch
Sorry bout that
All dah best
To be honest its common now, yesterday I created something and they found a small bug and they blamed me instead of cheering that atleast we made it, I was so sad then I talked to someone who is a great person and helped me a lot he said, stupid people: we can't create anything perfect so respect it, so just chill it happen..
Cheerup buddy. If someone treats u badly, it is a problem with them not the other way around.
Let not external force breaks your peace. Lots of love to you❤️
Dude, I can understand you completely, I experienced similar situations before, and the real conclusion to have is: Whatever your boss is kind to you, it is only a facade, you are no more than a machine in his system, and you are here to make money for him, you are a chicken of golden eggs, when you stop pounding eggs, he will never hesitate to sell you to the butcher, after all, you are a bag of meat for him.
I had retired at 56 for two weeks and then changed my mind and returned to work. As an engineer, I have realized that true happiness does not come from money or a fulltime pursue of my personal pleasures. It comes from having a meaningful purpose in this life by making at least some contributions to the society and helping others. Meanwhile I would still have time to travel and pursue some of my personal interests.
Here here! Engineers are creators and to accomplish in such a fashion is worth more than self-indulgence.
Another engineer here, I agree with you.
Engineer here, I agree with Jean, I'd much rather create things through my hobby and out of work interests vs. slaving at a desk.
yes,, i agree
Yup . Agree. Engineer as well.
Thank you for addressing these mistakes head-on. It's refreshing to see someone discussing the challenges teachers face when transitioning careers. Your video provides valuable guidance and encouragement. Keep up the excellent work!
Thank you for this🙏🏼 many blessings to you!
Your life sound wonderful, retiring at age 38 in Bali.
thanks for sharing the journey, hope I can follow your path
This is incredibly well spoken and worded.
I recently turned 25. I had gotten a very well paying job but I quit it in 10 days for I knew I do not want to do a 9 hour shift mon to sat with my eyes fixed on a screen and being stuck to a chair.
I am quite confident in the decision I have made. I would rather own a farm house, grow my own veggies and do something meaningful.
yeah your choice sounds so much more fun, good on you for being so brave!
Is the quit real..what do people are pursuing to make daily living expense, pay for chilling time or traveling

Oh my god, your voice and your energy is just so pure. I barely started to watch the video and I can feel that peace! I'm playing a mmorpg right now and I will be listening to you, and then other video and other video for sure.

Thank you, everybody needs to hear these things
A very interesting and enlightening story, I quit my NHS nursing practitioner job long with my health agency 6 six years ago to commit my time to be a single father and as my daughter needed my time more... Many people thought I was crazy but turn out to be the one best thing I have done. To be able to take my daughter to school and collect her as been a joy. I have learn so much more about self connect with the universe And over come my depression, I may be not as wealthy and it has been a struggle as I am not great with money but I am still learning to be better with it 💸and understand how it all works in this capitalist society. overall I believe quitting as made me better person and father as given me time to understand more about life my daughter this world and me. The journey continues.
im 49 married with no kids, id give anything to hear four simple words, "i love you daddy", youre truly blessed.
That's priceless what you've just described.
thanks for sharing.
the second best decision i made so far in my life was quitting my job so i could take better care for my fam.
the first best decision was accepting Jesus as my savior. God bless you and your fam. btw i am 67
Sir you really need to fix that H button on your keyboard ☝️🧐
Good on you! As a single parent raising children - who are now grown up, I wish I had done that, I can never get that time back. Now I have grandchildren, I want that time with them, I will soon leave my job for less money but more time for building beautiful memories :)
I'm a medical doctor and quit for the same reasons. Best decision ever.
I worked in pest control. They can make a lot more than people realize, or what you see on paper and I was officially in the rat race.

I recently resigned from my job in hospitality to pursue my passion in architecture and for full time graduate school getting my Masters in Architecture.

I get such GREAT service every time I go to the VermontCorpLTD and the IRS is SO wonderful to work with. I DEFINITELY want the Government in charge of my Social Credit Score! This couldn't possibly be misused in ANY way! All the data breaches that the VA has had makes me confident that my data would be TOTALLY safe!
I gave 35 years to a company and retired with only a 401k that I can’t even touch without penalty for another 4 years. I wish I would have left 3 years in. I wish I would have lived with less and did more. I wish I would have spent more time with my mom who is now gone, I can never get that time back. All this stuff surrounding me is nothing but a burden. I admire the young people who are quitting. They understand that less is more and the highest value is peace and joy
I loved every minute of the video! Thank you so much, Jean, for sharing this message with us!! I still have my life ahead of me, but I hope that one day I will be able to share messages about life just like you now, best of luck!
At 48 I walked away from a 6 figure job with nothing but savings. That was 7 yrs ago and I haven't really worked a day since. It's been a hell of a journey and now I'm looking to start making income again. It's hard after so long trying to figure out what I want to do so I'm just following my internal guidance compass and doing what most appeals to me next. I've found that this has taken me in all sorts of crazy directions and I'm not entirely sure where it'll end up. I'm also finding a strange desire to return to the corporate world to get those fat, steady paychecks again. The struggle is real and the money, so far, has been slow. But I still have faith.
I’m 48 and wondering what it will be like if I quit my big fat salaried corporate job and you just gave me the answers, thank you!
@@katien.6356- you're welcome, I think. haha Honestly it's been amazing, as good as I ever expected it to be. No more co-towing to co-workers on a power trip, no more long, boring meetings that could have been easily handled with an email, no more silly hoops to jump through simply to appear to be a "team player" when we're all really playing for our own teams, however we define them, yet always trying to disguise the true nature of that so we can keep playing the game.....none of that. Now it's just waking up at the crack of noon, drinking all the coffee one wants and then trying to figure out what awesome adventure one would like to go on today. My suggestion - create passive income before you quit the cushy corporate job. Me personally, I wish I would have invested more in dividend paying stocks. Those are awesome in quantity. But also having multiple streams of income is also pretty awesome apparently. I would also suggest jumping sooner rather than later. I drifted for years but I'm still young enough to do a LOT with my life and have fully recovered from corporate burnout so now I'm able to choose adventures that are filled with excitement and a strong sense of wonder instead of dreading the next thing simply because "i need the money" or some other lame excuse. Anyways - good luck!
You need to find work where you can be your own boss. If you let money be your guiding force you will never be happy no matter how much you earn. What are you good at? What do you like to fill your day doing? Now turn that passion into an income and you’ll never want for money again.
I'm 52 and I quit my 6-figure salary last week. I don't know what to do next, but at least now I can sleep better, the insomnia I developed from pressures of work and anxiety is almost gone. I'm enjoying life and has more appreciation of people around me, I'm not irritable and difficult to deal with. I just don't want to go back to IT industry anymore, but I'll figure that out within 6 months, in the meantime, I'll enjoy the slow mornings and late night binge-watching of tv shows.
@@higherpurpose1212- I worked in IT also and know the struggle well. Congrats on walking away. It can be a difficult thing to do but it's so liberating. Life becomes fun again but at times, I can't help but worry a little. haha
I'm now branching out into motorcycle and automotive repair. I've never been much of a mechanic but always wanted to know how to do it well. So now that I have the time, I've been investing money in tools and learning TONS!!! and it's so fun. Haven't got my bike working again yet but it's only a matter of time. I've got the parts in now and a plan for the projects so it's almost time to start working. I absolutely know it's going to be hot, sweaty work as opposed to an air conditioned office but damn, I'm loving it so far. Been focusing on garage organization while learning, waiting on parts and acquiring tools.
I also have no idea if I'll do this long term, only for my bike and then quit or what. I've even been seriously considering looking for an apprentice mechanic position at an automotive or motorcycle shop. haha I honestly never considered that before and at 56, almost 57, it's wild to think about.
Good luck on your journey. I hope you find enjoyment in whatever you choose to focus on. Cheers
I left my IT job in Canada and eventually settled in the Philippines. I run an non-profit animal shelter. I live adjacent to the ocean and it's very beautiful here. So I totally hear what you're saying.
@Sasha Friedman Honestly, the Philippines is the equivalent of the wild wild wild west. It's blatantly lawless here. It's no exaggeration. I am a risk-taker, street smart. think on my feet type of person and I have persevered here in the Philippines but looking back at all that I've gone through, I have to say, I doubt very much that other westerners would stay here after going through the same. Not to be openly derogatory about the people, I'd use the word sneaky. The fact is, the Philippines is a thrird world country and foreigners are seen as walking bank machines that can be vandalized. Do your research. Be very very very careful how you make your move here.
The Philippines can be a true paradise beauty wise and weather wise but a westerner has to know how to navigate here to be able to survive and thrive long term..
Listen y’all you may have your money in order and not being happy still, and no you don’t need a man if you think you need him ok. Get a dog 🐶 seriously it’s the best company you’ve ever had. Save yourself from misery and just enjoy life follow your institution! Although China culture it’s the contrary 😂 watch the movie rich asians something 😝 the lady who’s Chinese says to his son that Americans are failures they like to follow their dreams but have no money 💰 ha ha losers
Hey Rip Van winkle. Good on you for being brave and good crazy enough to go for your dreams and run such an amazing and honourable business like non profit animal shelter? I’m curious what was your catalyst? Also which part of Phils you moved to.
I was born in Philippines Moved to Sydney in 1979 at age 3. I’ve gone back many times but since all my grandparents and some of my fave relatives passed away I travel to other parts of the world and regular place to chill out is Bali. Many Filipinos are really beautiful people but yes the poverty there drives some to be dodgy, ungrateful and manipulative. Even some of my relatives see my travels and think that because I live in Australia that I’m rich and I’ve been happy to help may but some take advantage of me and my husband or worse have lied to me to get me to send money. Also you know how blunt Filipinos are so if you’re going to hit me and hubby up for money then at least have the decency to not gossip about me or insult me and call me fat as the first thing to say when you see me.
I’ve sorted this out by not returning for 9 years and also no longer being on Facebook. Hubby and I have talked about retiring in Bali in several years but he’s asked me about Philippines because I would be legally be able to buy property and I am hesitant. At least in Bali with the prevalence of devout Hinduism (their belief in karma) and that I’m not related to anyone there I would live more peacefully. I’m curious though how long you’ve been there and whether you find it peaceful to live there now. Thanks 😊
Citizenship is a must no matter where we live.
@Sasha Friedman Not sure if I should put this out here but if you need a contact in the Phils, message me through my page Forever Summer Animal Rescue. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have.
At 34 years old I finally feel ready to settle down long enough to buy a house. Unfortunately due to previous horrible stupid life decisions, I'm forced to start with a zero balance in my savings account. On the bright side, the huge amount of debt - consequence of those bad decisions will be payed off next month,It's never too late to start saving like there's no tomorrow, and I'm really REALLY excited and motivated. Oh and Graham, fyi my emergency fund is also a done deal! by VermontCorpLTD lol, i didn't made it myself
Thank you for sharing your story! ❤
Absolutely on point video. Our most valuable asset is our time. I’m searching on what to do that is not as draining and can still offer me a decent life and enjoyment of life. Learning to control our money is important I’m still learning.
10 Years ago I quit my $150k job. Although I loved the money and invested well along with living life , it was brutal and took a toll on my health. I quit and it was a gut wrenching decision. I moved to Florida and opened a restaurant. Although the pay is lower and the work is much more physical, I feel like I made a good decision. Now I'm ready to move on to my next job. At 59 I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up. Sounds crazy but I just don't do that well being in a job more than 10 or 15 years.
Wow, 10 or 15 years? I cap out at 3! Millenial here.
@@Wewereneveryoung I'm a Boomer and tap out at 3 yrs - that's enough. Of course I sacrifice not having wife(S) or children [Wah !] but the upside is that I am happy AND very content 😊
Do you mean that you opened restaurant and made less that 150k and more physical hard? And then you said you r ready for your next job,is it mean you close your restaurant now and will find another job. I am confused
I quit my six figure job last July for the exact reasons and realizations that you expressed. Best decision ever!!
What do you do now? If you dont mind me asking
I wonder the same thing, what do you do now to be able to buy food and housing?
That was brave, but the journey just started..you will need all the courage (many times it will seem like the "worst decision ever!!")
im 3 years in myself i trade now
I decided to change my lifestyle and get work that reflects that. Thanks for sharing your story.
Jean, you have a gift of articulation and I found this video VERY WELL DONE.
I really like this video. I am glad you did what you did and come to live on Bali. I used to come here and buy and design clothes to sell in America, but when I realized I was not making any profit and only having to pay more and more to be able to do this I quit and went back to be a gardener which I love to do. Now I am here with you and have realized something new. It is helping others who are less fortunate than me. It gives me a very good feeling helping others to improve their lives as much as I can. I don’t have much but I can help a little and I find it very rewarding. I also try to help the kids learn some English. Where I live many of them only know Bahasa Bali. I tell them and their parents if they don’t even learn Bahasa Indonesia they cannot travel even to the other islands next door. I also tell them that if they learn English they will be able to work in the tourist industry if they so desire. . Any way I was basically saying I found joy in helping others. Peace Dennis
Hi Den, thanks for this sharing! We r trying to do the same thing here in Bali! I hv been going around offering to share my time to practice english w the local kids that we know. I’ve also asked ppl here about the same thing. The thinking is the same - I cd help equip them for better things later in life. Surprisingly however I’ve encountered reluctance or indifference so far. Plus I’ve also been told it’s tricky cos some foreigners get accused to “working illegally” even though it’s volunteerism n get in trouble. Maybe it take times to build trust here in the community. Gardening is a lovely job n I’m glad u r doing something u love!
Congratulations Dennis! You have found the true happiness as mentioned in the words of the Lord Jesus, when he himself said: ‘There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.’” (Acts 20:35)🤓👍
I could so relate with you! You have great life lessons here that many should know about! ❤
Thanks for the great video Jean! ❤️

Hello, how is it after 2years?
This video hooked us from the very beginning because of how much it resonated with us! I (Em) have an eerily similar story - I recently quit my Big Law job in Hong Kong at 29 years old after 6+ years in the legal industry as well. I also had the realization one day of "where did all of my money go?" (answer: I shopped, ate and drank most of it away) and it was after that that I learned the power of money is buying the freedom to live on my own terms, not buying stuff. Really appreciate hearing another ex-lawyer talk about this issue and thanks for sharing your story!
Im retiring at the end of the month after 26 years. I just turned 55 last month and giving up a six figure salary to go overseas to work with children living in poverty. Life is more than about money... for me, its about leaving the world a little bit better than i found it.
thats a beautiful perspective. ill note it down.
My new favorite channel for sure, it resonates with me so much
I drove my first car in my dad's name and later went to get a truck in mine after I paid off my first one and drove off the lot with the truck I wanted, its mostly about a good credit score and a loan portfolio helps as well...lenders like to see various forms of loans in your name to be less of a risk and yes you might have to put money down but not HALF of the car loan Your exactly right I screwed my credit as a young man now I own a detailing company and can't get anything with out the full amount of cash. I'm working on my credit to get better with VermontCorpLTD, Love the knowledge keep it up
For an "ex-lawyer", you speak very peacefully and very articulate, I can totally relate to what you are saying, I'm 48 now and I feel trapped, and wondering how did I get here, where all the money went and most important how do I get out before I waste away the rest of my life.
All this depend on how we invest the first years in employment because its hard to quit empty handed.
The system wants us to work all our lifetime.
Bro I felt that. Thousands upon thousands are in the same boat.
@@justinamusyoka4986 I just started investing in stocks and learning about compounding, I just wish I'd started sooner

Never too late for a change in your life! Maybe take up a hobby, go on a trip, try to get a different perspective of your life. Maybe even do some volunteer work. That could help get you out of your own way sometimes! Good luck!
This is my dream. The rat race was never my goal. From a young age, I said this. I'm starting my journey to freedom now after learning the hard way how expendable we really are by our employers. It's been an experience trying to find the right path to financial freedom, but I'm determined to do it. Thank you for sharing your journey and insightful advice.
What a colorful person who followed her excitement. Very inspiring!
I'm just 18, i share exactly the same thoughts as you.
Your content is gold🌱
My mom wants me to be an Architect, the fact that i draw everytime makes her think that Architecture would suit me perfectly. But it's not what i want.
I don't wanna disappoint her, but mostly i don't want my freedom to be taken away from me like her freedom was.
My dream is to live in a small house, somewhere where nature is.
Having a really basic relaxing and meaningful life, and doing what i like the most! Painting and music.
If your mother knew how much it will cost you working as an arcitect, she would change her mind, I can assure you ;) I am an architect have experience working in 4 companies til now and I just have to say it to you.... I thought this is what I want to do... Unfortunatelly the reality seems to be really hard and cruel. I worked sometimes 20h/day (sitting in the front of the screen), a lot of stress, deadlines, no satisfaction. I feel I lost my precious time sitting in the office making rich people richer (developers).... Creating buildings that I even dont like (investors always have last word, because they pay). All my architect-friends are also burned out profesionally (and they are around 30yo).
I love yoga, I play piano, I want to move to Norway one day, connect with nature, build a tiny house, own and take care of some animals. I love sheeps and cows so much! Be a musican. I want to feel this good energy around... This is what matters. I didnt have this thoughts when I went to collage... I want to feel alive :) Now I really know what I want and how my life should be look like but it took me 5 years in collage and 6 years in job to realize :)
Now I am working in good company, there is no overtime, good salary, but still this is not the way I want to live. So after work I practice piano a lot, making my own music, go to norwegian lessons, go to yoga classes and all of these daily tasks gives me a feeling that every day is one small step closer to make my dreams come true.
Be honest with yourself, that's the only way to be happy. This is your life and make your own decisions, good luck :)
Go for it Love.. Pursure your dreams
You are still very very young
@sarcasmaaamm i love your dreams, and i think you're super mature to have such dreams at your age and to understand what you feel about your mom's wants for you. I think its amazing to try to forge a life from beautiful pursuits such as painting and music and i am rooting for you to be able to make that happen in a financially sustainable way! cheers to your precocious mind xoxo
Thank you guys🤍🌱
Credit score is not something used in all countries though. In France, they determine if you are eligible to get a loan (e.g., to buy a house) based on the ratio between your salary, your expenses and your savings. Basically, if every month you 'burn' all your money, you're perceived as riskier than someone earning less but consistently making deposits to a saving account. I feel in the US people tend to buy things they don't need with money they don't have... The only times I feel one should need a credit is when buying 'big' things (house, car, etc.). Not for a TV. I’m 26 with over 800 credit score, time was put into that to build it up by VermontCorpLTD
'Social credit'?? Sounds like Communist China.
Perfect! Pure Gold!
That is incredible video and all are so true. Thanks for sharing and giving some valuable thoughts.
I am happy for you. I wish I had quit my job long before I did. Instead I ground it out for 30 years and am now retired and living in Thailand. My life is great but...waiting so long to retire has consequences. The things I loved, dreamed about and was passionate about were things I could no longer do or enjoy in my 60's. Time and opportunity had passed me by. You have taken a different path and I believe it is the best one. I am now 70, contented and enjoy every day but I sacrificed too much to get here. Be happy now. An excellent idea.
Hi James, thank you for sharing about your life story - it was really interesting to take a peek at your perspective as someone who basically went all the way in the job but with the happy ending of retirement in Thailand. What were these things u dreamt about that in your 60s no longer were possible, if you don't mind sharing? I was lucky that one of my driving forces was surfing n i knew very clearly that has a clear age bracket within which it cd possibly be what i hope it cd be, so that was another push factor at getting me to quit early.
Anyway, the important thing is always the present and im happy that in your present you are contented and happy every day!
@@JeanVoronkova At 60 I was no longer able to do many physical things like triathlons and team sports except at a much less intense level. The same with my hobby of playing chess. My calculations are surprisingly good but I am slow. Starting a new life in Thailand was emotionally challenging in many ways and being older seemed to allow me to deal with this more easily e.g. I do not expect to "fall in love" but finding a partner was important to me. Basically getting old sucks and those who brightly talk about their golden years are probably on drugs, lol. Physically, mentally, and emotionally I am not as strong as I used to be and that makes pursuing my former dreams difficult to impossible. There is some satisfaction from doing the best I can with what I have remaining but it feels a bit like getting a compliment that I look good for my age. All of this is a result of waiting too long.
Thank you for the update VermontCorpLTD is done right, and waiting is part of the process,
It's great that you learned this valuable life lesson after only 6 years. I worked in an industry that sucked the soul out of me until I was finally able to take somewhat early retirement. I don't wish that on anyone. The money is definitely not worth it!
glad to hear u did early R n got out! i expect you're much happier these days? congrats! I'm very lucky i got out somewhat early too i agree. My 30s has been a joyous ride n i am grateful.
The money would worth more if there's a purpose for it.
th-cam.com/video/VQu8D6Z5k3I/w-d-xo.html
“Sucked the soul out of me”. That’s the perfect description of what I experienced.
its so good to hear people who understand each other❤lovely video and change of you lifeee.. yuhuuu ❤
Thank you, this was inspiring ❤
I quit my job two years ago to pursue my dream as an artist. I do agree that everyone needs a purpose to live a fulfilling life, but life is not always full of joy and passion, and quitting your job is surely not the automatic guarantee for that. Meaningful things deserve efforts, discipline, perseverance and faith. I wish all people can find their own way of being happy, unfortunately the way to happiness does not simply begin by quitting.
Fully agree. It took me over 6 years to make the transition from quitting to successfully building n living the alternative lifestyle in my dream vision, which is what we r doing now in Bali. Quitting (n only if ur job is what is crushing ur soul) is just the first step. But to do what I did basically involves first getting on top of the money trap.
VermontCorpLTD is a bluechip longterm hold. I dont even care if it replaces ETH(holding this too).
great decision.very wise, and i hope you will have now the freedom we all need to have!
So from the heart and honest; it's that which I like most about your video. This kind of courage and perception is driving the creation of a new world. 💖
The problem is that when we are in the rabbit hole it’s very hard to save money because we are going through the toxic cycle and compensating it with money. I would say sometimes quitting without a plan would make us more resilient with our goals and overcoming the challenges there and then
If you are unhappy then DO SOMETHING to change and become happy. Do not blame others...blame things...blame at all. Just do what makes you happy...its simple really.
@@speedomars3869 it's never that simple. Not everyone can afford to just up and leave their toxic workplace immediately
@@Astro2024 sure it is....especially in this job market.
@Adriana Joseph I know what u mean about the toxic cycle. If the job is so all consuming u need to quit it before u can clear ur brain n think about other ways to make a livelihood. But it’s not for the faint hearted!
I can relate to this video on multiple levels: My grandfather managed billion dollar construction projects/contracts, all over the Western United States, and Central/South America. I can recount meeting him once, before he died. I was an infant. He worked twelve, eighteen hour days, and never really got to know his kids, and grand kids. I quit, similar to you, about ten years ago. Before I fell into the ego trap, I did not want to go down that road, where I work my whole life for someone else, ignoring my friends and family.
good for u! i think gramp's generation had a very disciplined survival n work mindset.... my traditional asian family elders are the same so can kinda relate. ah well. Just hope working like that gave him some satisfaction.
Maybe working is what he loves to do... maybe more than family, kids, grand kids. People are different you know. The rule is make sure you know what you want and what you give up for it... that way you will not regret it later. I know people who died soon after they retire. I have friends who got everything, not hung up in materialistic things, but still work his day time job, then go home get on his computers, phones creating new companies. People are different. Just make sure you know what you give up for what you want in life. By quitting your job, what would you give up? I'm still trying to retire. But my kid, well supported, might not feel the need to work as hard as I did to make sure I can well provide for my family, and might end up retire much sooner than I can.
@@1tuyenpIf you love your job more than other people, maybe you shouldn’t have a family and children and condemn them to unhappiness.
@@esdeath89 If the family and the children were well provided for, is it so much a bad life? A lot of people love their jobs a little more and have contributed greatly to humanity. I think it is Albert Einstein who said “Genius is 1% talent and 99% percent hard work.” Think of all of the people who worked hard to have inventions for humanity. Shouldn't they have a family too? Or do you think the only way to life is to slack off?
@@1tuyenp Spending time with his family is the duty of a husband and father, what is so difficult to understand about this? Since when has providing for a family become a sufficient justification for devoting all your time to work? You shouldn’t be surprised later that your wife is cheating with her lover, and your children don’t love you at all and blame someone other than themselves for this.
I’ve pondered about quitting my job but I set aside that thought for the moment. I’m still scared in loosing the steady income. Then I saw your video that old thought keeps coming back. I just love your Honesty in sharing your experience 😊 Thank you Beautiful😊
Beautiful, well said! You’re so inspirational.. thanks for the reassurance
My father cried on the beach, I was 15 my brother was 12. He cried because he had not taken us fishing for years. He worked so hard to try provide a good life for us kids, when he realised, just being there is worth more than money.
Just being there, esp parents for kids, is so important. And it’s good your dad had that realisation. It’s never too late. Hope things r better now on the home front w his work family balance
Thank you for sharing your experience with us
Thanks you for sharing this important information.
There is nothing wrong with a “great” job. Like everything else in life, it is what makes you tick that matters. If a 9 to 9 job excites you and makes you feel worthy, so be it. If it doesn’t, you look for sth else. You may make it or you don’t. That’s life! One thing I’d say is not doing sth about things you hate in life is what one should avoid. It is the journey that counts, not the destination. Have fun in life!
You’re absolutely right. Not slamming all great paying high end jobs out there. Just I was one of those unwilling trapped in there when I was a square peg in a round hole. N so many r afraid to leave! We shd all be doing work we r happy to do. Life can be so good that way!
Dear Jean, good vid with insight.Thank you for sharing.
I love your energy! You are genuine and bring those of us that are done with the “hustle “ to take the next move. I am in the States, I need more friends like you.
i'm sure plenty out there feel the same - hence the number of views on this video. It's just not something we go around publicly declaring much I guess 🌻
I feel the same way too, when the lockdown first happened I got to explore the long lost creativity which made me question how much I sacrifice to my job. They pay is good but the hours and travel erode my quality of life. I determined back then to have an exit plan and am working towards it, I am so close to leaving my job and can't wait :)
Hey Renee so happy to hear about your own realisations n then your plan. It’s empowering to reach the consciousness and then take action to change your life for the better. I wish u all the best go girl go!!
@@JeanVoronkova thank you! It's great to have people like yourself post this up on youtube, when I started watching videos about this and the great resignation, it confirmed that what I was on the right track, thank you for being brave and doing it and sharing your experience, it's always scary when you have been on a secure wage to just take a chance on life. You have to take a chance and risk something once on your life or you stagnate, right?
I am looking to do the same thing.
New subscriber here.. What you were saying in this video really resonates with me. I also retired early this year at 52 ( not that early I know) . Main reason is to spend the next 4-5 years as full time mom to my 2 children (college & sr high) .. Just happy to be able to do this for my children before they lead their own lives.. and also for my self I guess. Maybe soon I'll find other purpose or activities that would still align with my current priorities. Also, I'll may be able to really travel once they graduate & if I still have the desire, strength & of course the resources to do so... maybe when I get to start receiving my pensions at 60 ha ha ( hope it'll still be more than enough by then).
Thank you I will surely binge watch ur previous episodes for inspiration ...
Awesome video, so true, thank you! So many all over the world are experiencing what you went through.
I feel the same sentiment too.
I remember roughly 11 years ago when I started my first day of working in a corporate office job, I look at somebody opposite the office and think to myself, what the f**k your telling me the person opposite me has been working in here for 30 years and he/she still there doing the same thing? and & he/she thinks that they are so damn good at this job in their own sense of pride? Is it truth or false reality that this person has been saying to himself/herself. Then fast forward to now, after quitting my job. I think back and realize actually many people doesn't like their job but because they are just too comfortable with not taking risk to change their life. That's why they self-indulge in the habit of encouraging themself that it's okay to do the same thing all their life because many has done it.
To me no way, There's no purpose in this kind of life.
That's why my first goal after started working on day 1 is to get out of this rat race.
I ultimately feel the power of money is to try to buy the remaining time you have in life and not to continue the rat race and thinking you will always have tomorrow.
Sadly many people around me thinks that they always have tomorrow and I see heaps of people getting into debt, buying new cars, new watches, new apartments thinking that they have "done" it in life attaining such material thing.
To me, the ultimate freedom is to live another day, anytime, anywhere without fearing of any debts to clear at month end.
That's the real happiness and the real purpose of life.
But many forget...
"Time is the greatest asset that money can't buy."
You can sort of buy your future time but you never know how much time you have left.
Thank you for your video Jean! :)
Just sharing my sentiment here to help future people who is in doubt!
love your inspirational msg. Totally hit the nail on the head there. Thanks for sharing. i hope more people see this.
“True happiness is to enjoy the present without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied, for he that is wants nothing. The greatest blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not” - Seneca
This is f***ing best comment so far
Jean!! Yes!!! This is amazing. It's so tempting to stay in a cushy job but you're never going to grow if you don't challenge yourself and make yourself uncomfortable. I made a video about my experience on my channel yesterday and we have a lot of the same talking points. Thank you for sharing, and happy new years!!
Your mental health is most important screw that job, boss or anything that threatens it. I quit my company as a co-founder and MD. I had a bit of savings and believed in myself. You were not stupid but brave, we all think a scary scenario often with “what if all goes to hell” well what if it doesn’t and most of the time it will not. I quit and found my “why”
After a year; if I have stayed at my company I would just delay my destiny. Do not wait, chase your dream TODAY :)
I help others to transform today. Love it.
