american author and journalist srully blotnick - i promise that's his real name - he did a 20 year study of 1,500 business school graduates - they were separated into 2 groups based on their career choices - 83% chose to earn money first and retire early to chase their passion - the remaining 17% wanted to follow their passion first regardless of the pay and worry about money later
100 of the 255 graduates who chose to follow their passion first were millionaires only 20 years later - 1,245 graduates chased a paycheck over their passion - guess how many of them became millionaires in those same 20 years - one - only one person that decided to follow a bigger paycheck over what they were passionate about actually earned a lot of money!
perhaps it is because those people learned that money is not the goal - money is just the means by which we fund the things in this life we are passionate about!
