I’m going into 10th grade.
To start, I am locked in at school, currently at a 4.0 GPA all As. I study math everyday, I want to get really good at it as I am hoping to go into Finance.
I am starting to invest early, I have like 10k-15k worth of bonds from when I was born that I get when I’m 18, I own silver and I am trying to put money in an index fund but I need my parents to set up an account. As soon as I get a job I am going to start buying a few thousand dollars worth of gold each year.
My plan is to ace the SATs and do dual enrollment so I can graduate high school with an Associates Degree or at least some college credits.
Then, I am eligible for a full ride ROTC scholarship to go to a prestigious accredited finance/business school, which is selective but I have a chance (4.0 GPA, Eagle Scout, community service hours, varsity athlete).
I am hoping to attend the college I was talking about, otherwise I’ll just go somewhere different, the scholarship applies to any school with ROTC.
While in college I’ll focus purely on my studies and networking, no need to work my way through because of my scholarship (it pays tuition plus a small stipend for other expenses). Over the summers I’ll have ROTC tours and internships.
When I graduate, I’ll have to pay my due to the US military and serve for 4 years. There, I’ll start off as a low ranking officer (kind of a middle management position), but I’ll probably be working in accounting or supply corps because of my degree. The pay is pretty good for a starter job. I will continue putting money away for retirement in a Roth IRA or something, buying gold, and also I will be doing some trading, which I will learn in college.
Then I will get out after 4 years, I’ll have a Finance degree, management experience, and a stable base of money. I will get a job in the finance department of some company, continue working my way up until I am making a pretty high salary, all the way while continuing to put money in a Roth IRA, buying gold, etc but now I will also be buying dividend paying stocks and working on cash flow from assets. I am going to leverage debt to buy property that I can rent out to people, (obviously with a property manager). Then, I will just continue building cash flow and putting money away and retire early using the money gained from retirement funds and the gold, all while continuing to generate cash flow from my dividend stocks and properties. I will now devote my time to building businesses which I can have managed by other people to generate me more money.
Obviously this is just an overview and does not cover all the logistics and loopholes.
