Can you rely solely on others for guidance? No.

那些 unwilling to invest in their own inner capabilities second-generation entrepreneurs will never make real money. They may look glamorous, but that’s because they’re spending—not earning. Some of them appear to have made it financially, but that’s only because they cashed in their dad’s resources. Let’s be clear: it’s no different from pawning something. The only difference is they’re pawning vases while you’re pawning your father’s reputation and power.

That’s not how you make money. That’s how you sell out your dad.

No one can change their life without first changing themselves. Only con artists will tell you otherwise. If you truly want to make money, there’s no shortcut around doing the work on yourself.
