In this video, I discuss my personal journey of leaving a lucrative $200,000 investment banking job at just 25 years old. Born to an immigrant truck driver and driven by financial aspirations from a young age, I initially found investment banking appealing due to its prestige and opportunities for high-stakes decision-making. However, I eventually realized that the demanding work culture and lack of personal fulfillment outweighed the financial benefits.
