What to Study to Become a Millionaire? (2024)

The future is something that naturally worries us since what actually scares us about the darkness is not that we don't see anything but rather that we don't know what is there in the same way. The future is something that makes us uncomfortable since it can bring great benefits but also many problems, especially if we take into account that the key decisions that define our destiny such as our friends, our partner and, above all, what to study are true. So if you are going through this stage of your life, it is very likely that you are wondering What should I study to be a millionaire based on statistics and according to the Mexican Institute for Competitiveness, these are the 10 best-paid careers in Mexico. This is quite surprising because two high-growth industries, such as computer science in number 11 and the development of software, are left out of the first places. software in number 12 however These are the careers of the present so although this information is valuable you have to understand that the past does not guarantee the future and that we have to look not only at what works today but also at what will work tomorrow Now you don't have to be a genius to understand That regardless of the profession you study, if you subtract your fixed living expenses and some personal goals such as having a family, it is very likely that you will not have much money left at the end of the month, so the goal of being a millionaire seems even further away. with the highest salary on the market But then why study if this is not going to make me a millionaire first because there is no profession, career, industry or job that for the simple fact of studying it is a Millionaire and second because knowledge does not discriminate against information is power between The more you acquire, the more value you will be able to contribute and at the same time, the more money you will be able to generate. Imagine that your mind is like an empty toolbox that is filled with the studies and skills that you acquire over time, however, what you do and build with these tools it depends 100% on you if you reached this part of the video Put the brain emoji so I know that you are absorbing all the information now if your dilemma is to study or not to study I am going to give you my personal recommendation it is more than known that the system educational is not perfect Yes We see how the different industries have evolved in the last 100 years, we will notice that the educational system has not changed at all, so from this angle studying may seem somewhat outdated or no longer useful today in my company there are currently people who studied the degree and people who decided not to study voluntarily and the main difference between these two profiles is their responsibility. The people who decided not to study of their own free will was because they had a business or undertaking that required their full attention but they did not stop studying for a possible idea that it could be successful or why They simply did not like to study but rather because they already had a business operating and generating income. For example, one of our producers, before entering university, generated more than $5,000 a month with his agency and to scale his business he decided not to study and the fact is that if we If we think about the great success stories that decided not to study, like Mark Zuckenberg or Bill Gates, we will realize that they did not stop studying just because they did not like it, but rather because they had a greater responsibility that needed them. Mark Zuckenberg did not leave Harvard because school was not for He left it to put his full attention on what is today one of the most important social media companies in the world and at the age at which we made this decision most of us do not have a successful business that requires the 100% of our attention and studying ends up being the path that brings us closest to building the foundations of this destiny and I know that the educational system has many flaws and is far from being perfect since we really learn many things but few that serve us for life school will never solve your financial problems but honestly what If it does, therapy does not solve your personal problems, but it does give you the tools so that you can do it. Your partner does not remove your feeling of loneliness, but it does increase your support network, and in the same way, school will never make you a millionaire, but it will. It will help you develop the tools so that you can do it on your own. At the end of the day, the university is an institution that teaches us the basics, but it will never give results, not to mention that there are obviously an innumerable number of professions that do require a university degree, such as They are lawyers, doctors, psychologists, accountants. engineers and many others, I can personally tell you that I owe a large part of my professional career to the university since thanks to the fact that I had the privilege of studying I was able to acquire the basic knowledge to enter the world of money and investments. And although the University did not teach me even a tenth of what I know. It helped me build the foundations to be able to learn more on my own. My recommendation is very simple if you can. Study, study since data from the Ministry of Public Education indicates that only on December 24 young people of legal age in Mexico are registered in higher education and only eight out of every 100 students who begin their studies manage to finish them. So the simple fact that you have the opportunity to do so is already a privilege. My philosophy has always been that if my family with fewer resources reached a point My obligation is to take them to point B with what I have today. In other words, if my parents gave me an opportunity that they didn't have, it is my obligation to take them to where they didn't get. So if you have the opportunity to study, do it because you do n't need a degree. to be a millionaire but it does help and quite a bit But if you are already interested in studying but you don't really know what the following is for you, in order to make the best possible decision, I recommend that you take into account three factors. You have to find your desired profession at the nexus of these three number one dimensions. that you are good, the better you are at something, the easier it will be for you to do it and you will enter a cycle of positive feedback and infinite Flow because naturally we like to do the things we are good at number two what you like if you work on what you like You will never have to work a day in your life This is a very common phrase regarding this topic and although it is not entirely true since there will always be things that we do not like to do, the reality is that if we are really connected with our purpose, those difficult things happen easier because we have something bigger that motivates us. to do them and third, what the market is asking for, this does not depend on you and is a completely external dimension since it depends directly on the supply and demand of the market and here the economic motivation is represented. The first two are internal dimensions and that is through the Through action and proactivity we can discover what we are passionate about and what we are really good at. Maybe you are bad with numbers but you love public speaking Or maybe you don't like attention But you love programming these two dimensions are merely in your control since only by trying different things will you be able to know the answers On the other hand, the last dimension It is external and does not depend on us but rather it is about where the market is going and the evolution of the ways of making money and in recent generations the ways of generating have been changing a lot, for example in my personal history my grandparents They were uneducated people who made their money through hard work. It involved more physical effort than intellectual effort. Later, my parents were the generation where studying made a difference. My grandparents encouraged my parents to study because in those times having a degree was almost a guarantee of success and my parents built our family based on hard work but now not only physically but also intellectually thanks to his university degree, however today things are changing since working hard is the minimum requirement and having a degree no longer makes you different, although being able to study is completely a privilege, the reality is that Every year thousands of people graduate with the same degree that you and you have to stand out in some way and a great option to do so is to explore the third dimension what the market wants today Today the market Look for digital solutions since the new money is being made through distribution For example if you study psychology because you like to help people and you really believe that you are good at it, you are in control of the first two internal dimensions since you know that you have to study but maybe you don't know what you want to dedicate yourself to, since if you only limit yourself to understanding patients physical your income will be limited by the number of hours you you can work and you will not be taking advantage of the third external dimension since with your knowledge you should open yourself to the possibility of treating patients online or Better yet, to create a personal brand by sharing your knowledge in psychology to be able to help more people who could later become an online therapy platform where psychologists from all over the world can register and treat patients from anywhere, as there are already several examples. If you want to have a good future, don't study the highest-paid career, study what you like most in what you do. be good and apply it in what that the market needs and if you reached this part of the video, put in the comments what you want to study so that you reinforce the idea of living from your passion. The two internal dimensions will tell you what you should study and the external dimension will tell you how to use that knowledge to have economic success I want you to know that a degree will never be a guarantee. You are welcome, there are great scholars without a degree and unintelligent people with a doctorate. Formal education will make you a home, but self-education will make you a fortune. If your goal is to generate wealth, you have to understand that true education starts when you leave school focus on learning more than what they ask you to know more than what they ask you and on working more than what they pay you my best advice It will always be that while you are studying you work and get experience in the areas that are of interest to you because the worst What can happen to you is graduating and not knowing what to do with your life finally. I want you to know that a career does not Define you if, according to the National Survey of graduates in Mexico, only half of the graduated professionals pursue the career they studied. tea I can confirm first-hand that many times you will see engineers working in finance or financiers working in marketing, a title will never define your destiny, only you and your actions can do it. My advice is that you do not study what pays the most or what is going to leave you the most money. future study what you like what you can't stop talking about and what you would like to be the best at because although economic expectations are very important nowadays Any passion is monetizable There are people who love to cook and create content these others who speak and monetize their passion like the cinema and others who monetize even much more special passions like doctors, these people did not focus on studying what made the most money, they focused on studying what they loved, they evaluated their two internal dimensions and adapted their passion to the third dimension to make money Yes You want to have a good future, don't study something for money, study it for passion and find a way to make money with that skill, always reviewing what the market is rewarding and no, we won't always do what we like, there will be times when we have to do things that we hate. us dislike or for which we are simply not good but we have to understand that everywhere there will always be difficult things but this will always be part of the process since the fun things are built on many boring things to win you have to invest to rest you have to work and To do what we like, we must first do what we dislike. You have to understand the game to be able to get out of it. Study what you love. Do the difficult things and find the market that monetizes your passion.
