I agree but I do believe in children paying a bit of rent. If you let them live rent free completely then they get used to their full salary as disposable. If you are making 120k, you could contribute 500 to rent to your parents and then use the rest to pay off loans or save up for a house of your own.

By having his company pay for his car, not having any rent, and not having any student loans because he got D1 scholarships, this guy has basically hacked the system. He barely has any bills. If he doesn’t get there through equity/sale of his company and if crypto doesn’t crash, he should be very rich very soon. Good for him. I make around the same amount as him but we have VASTLY different lifestyles, career goals, and investing strategies

Same here, similar income in Sydney, Australia but vastly different lifestyle. It's nuts to me that this guy is so frugal in most aspects of his life but making such risky investment choices. Fully respect his hustle though.
