The freedom of not having a job, is more important than money. Time is priceless!
💯💯💯
As long as you have enough money, or a decent stash.
@@julius43461 it's not about the money at all. They are just a means to an end. That's all.

Cleaning my apartment as I watch this video. No job and frankly, I will reinvent myself to earn money for living. At 55 I want to enjoy life more. Minimalist empty nester and no debt. Perfect time to quit the rat race. Thanks Dorian! Hope you continue enjoying life
I follow your channel for a while, what strikes me you're not trying to fake or embellish anything. Just a regular dude with an attitude to improve things, with his ups and downs showing that sth is possible. Keep it up, respect from Poland.
Yeah same, I like it for this reason. It's basically just the guy's self-improvement diary without the added bs
I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever,hoping to retire next year.. Investment should always be on any creative man's heart for success in life
Thanks for the advice! I'm new to financial planning and wasn't sure where to start. Any tips on finding a reliable financial adviser or resource to guide beginners?
As a beginner, it's essential for you to have a mentor that is verified by finra and SEC to keep you accountable. I'm guided by a widely known financial consultant Stacey Macken
Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 12 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life
YES! that's exactly her name (Stacey Macken) I watched her interview on CNN News and so many people recommended her trading skills, she's an expert and I'm just starting with her....From Brisbane Australia
This Woman has really change the life of many people from different countries and am a testimony of her trading platform .
That upside is a good feeling. Meaning 300 bucks a month (with growth potential) is far more important than making money at a 9-5. Just the freedom and understanding that what you’re doing now (regardless of income at the moment) will be much more worth it in 10 years vs staying at your job.
I think that many people in this time period are fighting against the 9 to 5 paradigm and it's why we're starting to see a surge of more gig apps where you CAN work your own schedule and have time to do the things that you like to do. Times ARE changing. It seems like a lot of companies are ADAPTING to this demand. Otherwise, they won't have as many people working for them and A.I. could only do so much!!! So, let's ALL continue this and thus, bring more of the freedom that we seek into existence!
You have me inspired to try, I have the means to do this, now I just decided to try it. Thanks for that.
Thanks for the honesty man. that's the reason we have subscribed. would love to hear your updates once a while
I really like this and resonate with what you talked about in this video. Thanks for the thoughtful content.
Literally how I'm feeling, I truly want to escape this ratrace 😭
I’m so glad you’ve been honest with yourself. ❤
I resonate with this message. This is very encouraging and inspiring. Making moves towards a similar goal right now.
Here for this content. This is exactly what I'm doing right now so it's exciting to see someone else doing themself. Keep it up, you got this
Crazy how this video popped up in my feed, I feel a lot of your truth as it’s so so relatable, this is beautiful ❤, I’m much happier and mentally stable.
You’re the realist person on CZcams. Keep it up brother
Good on you for doing what you want. I've had some family that just never was able to make those things happen, and kind of became stuck in the the 9-5 life to survive for decades. Some of them can't even appropriately retire. It's pushed me to try and make sure that doesn't happen to me, so this was welcomed advice to maybe slow down and take things in before I'm gone.
Thanks for sharing, i can resonate with your feeling
We’ve been subjected to the Monday thru Friday grind since children. Imagine being able to enjoy a Tuesday or a Thursday off… and working a Saturday because you’re working on something you care about.
Life is meant to be flexibile.
Man, I'm glad I came across this video man!
shout out to da homie Dorian. One of your best if not best videos I have watched. And to anyone reading this who wants to level up in life and out the matrix. Dorian is who helped me get out. I wish I could have beaten you to a video like this but you summed it up perfectly man. I still remember our first call when I said you are me in the future. look at God! from 0..... now I ma 10k+ subs on CZcams, almost 1000 on TikTok and almost 100 on X. After being in an office/WFH hating my life. Now I am living the dream. There is more than one Neo in the matrix. do the TopMate call with Dorian and learn and free your mind. I can only show you the door
Great video, as always.
I haven’t had a job since 2018 and it’s been great.
The irony of your channel name is you don’t even need to change it for the beautiful shift your channel has taken. Listen, don’t let the people who want your old content get you down. Dorian has DEVELOPED into a better and happier person who is enjoying life to the best of his ability and there’s nothing wrong with that. I would argue that the haters are just jealous that you’ve been able to escape being a cog for capitalism to pursue what makes you truly happy. Don’t worry about this dip in your metrics, the right people will flock to your channel in due time. Meanwhile don’t be afraid of using other social media like tiktok or twitch, tiktok needs inspirational people like you to fight the hustle pr0n and twitch you could do “co-working” sessions where you just hang out and chat and encourage others to strive for their dreams. You’ve encouraged me, I know I’m just some nobody on the internet but you definitely inspire me and I’ve tried sharing your videos with other like minded people. Keep being happy Dorian!
Thank you for this One!
I feel like you.
It took me many years to discover who l am, now l am happy that l am doing graphic design, digital marketing and web development. This brings me to fulfilment and l am happy with this path of mine.
As an IT, I found myself working longer while in the office and studying for my job while I was not working I would sleep wake up and would have to work all over again. I rarely had the time to working on myself. I believe that the work life balance is no longer a thing.
Work-work balance
You're an honest man with a good heart. I hope to be a father like you.
Keep it up man! :)
What Dorian says is true BUT you still need a certain income to support yourself and your family. If you don't have money to eat, your family doesn't have a roof over your head all those talks about being happy and pursuing your happiness are meaningless. And anyone with the family and kids will understand me.
MJ DeMarco is the man. His books have the power to change your life. The Millionaire Fastlane is my favorite book. Have you read his other books?
Yes he's books are awesome! I haven't read Unscripted but I have read fastline and the rat race escape.
@@DorianDevelops Unscripted was the best book out of the three books MJ DeMarco has written. Highly recommend giving it a read when you have some downtime.
@@sahil885 I agree, Unscripted is the best of them all.
@@jerzybboy @sahil885 you guys convinced me I'll pick it up on kindle!
Let's goooo man! 💪
Great!
I gave up 9-5 after no work/life balance in my position not to mention industry and am hurting bad. Hard to stay positive mentally everything but I realize that’s where the strength comes from!
Hey Man, that's great to hear. I have struggling with the rat race as well, made 350k+ each year over last 3 yrs but still feel poor and un-inspired. Planning to make a move to Malaysia soon.
I made 60k+ each year over the last 10 years and feel exactly the same way about my 9 to 5 job as you do yet you made almost double what I did in just 3yrs while it took me 10yrs to only earn 600k. Financially I'm comfortable, I'm better off than most, and live within my means, but the fact that you don't feel any better than I do and you earned over a million dollars in just 3 years says a lot. Not sure what all it's saying, but it's A LOT.
@@doitthisway654 thank for your response. I think I made a lot’s of mistakes during last 4-5 yrs and it has caught up with me. When money started to come in, sometimes 45k a months, I felt rich and invisible and bought things shouldn’t have. Put almost 300k in stock and crypto and I think I am 50% down now. I am nearing 40 with no substantial savings or plan and hence it scares me about the future. Two months ago I took a low paying 100% remote role(150k) and wondering if moving to Malaysia to reduce the stress however I am worried about the working hours. I want to take 1-2 yrs and focus on my physical and metal health I know it’s close to impossible being in the US.
Now I just want to have normal job, normal life, gaming, I'm feel happy right now.
I live in Asia, where you gonna get compare to other people, I feel it.
But from "How to be top 1%", now I'm learn how to be in middle , when in the middle, I'm invisible, no one see me.
High ego probably the thing I learned to throw it to the trash the most, I used to be the top student, top learner, alway the guy volunteer to do stuff for other to get other people give me a "certificate" that I'm capable of doing something.
I mean, I dont give a shjt anymore, I still try, but I'm not gonna expect it the way I want it to be, I used to get depressed, stressed out because of that.
I resonate with you on this one. There gets to a point where one must step back and say enough.
The ultimate goal should be inner peace, in whatever way that looks for you.
Agh !! Too big fears for this short life.
Ive realized what I should do is completely different from what I want to do. My mission atm is find out whoch things are what I want to do
Looking for remote jobs any info? Or ones that are knowledgeable to work for? Company wise?? Love your channel!
Never tried in any serious way to break out of the 9-5. I’ve been rewarded well for my “corporate warriorship”. But, I’ll need a new way to live in what people call retirement.
Serious question, what camera do you use? I have a really similar life/lifestyle…. I’m 2 steps away from where you are (I feel like)
I work a 4 day on 4 days off shift rotation and I feel like just like this on my off days.
Would be interesting to hear what you're working on aside from CZcams.
You could do more vlogs bro, you 're in another country that we don't know...do it!
take me with you brother!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, I have a job where I get paid $60 per hour.
All I do is copy and paste emails and send them off whilst filling in a KPI form, each day I dread going in to work just to be a robot.
The best jobs I've had I earnt less but actually interacted with the general public and my coworkers.
I mean its still nice to have sunday off 😊
Hey what type of ring is that which your wearing I want one
I have issues working for people since i went to Iraq after high school twice. I’m 41 now and I just try to work on my own. So i get you. I just can’t get something going in code. I know a little of everything. 😂
Listening you like watching my self at the mirror
Quit my 9-5, Happy and have more time to figure out more ways of earning.
hey brother, if not a job what are you doing right now like how do you earn what do you do ?
great video dude , thanks for the insights and inspiration
For anyone wanting to leave your 9 to 5 to pursue some sort of business... first, ask yourself if this phrase sounds true to you:
"I'd rather work 80 hours a week working on my own business, than 40 hours a week working for someone else."
If this does NOT sound like you, then do NOT try to pursue a business - you will fail. You won't invest the time necessary to make your business successful.
The only industry I've observed this in is restaurants. The 80 to 100 hour weeks are a lie the ruling class tells the working class. I worked as a consultant for a decade and only restaurant folks actually worked those hours.
If its not too personal I've always wondered what entrepreneurs or youtubers do for health insurance. I know some seek care overseas
WHAT IS YOUR OCCUPATION? OTHER THAN CZcams. I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOUR PERSPECTIVE.
Kiyosaki has truths in his book. Then you realize he tells you to make your own business as your new hamster wheel and hire others to be put in your hamster wheel. And if you burn out, It's your fault because you didn't do enough.
What do you ac work with?
Hey Dorian, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos better than your Editor with good pricing and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?
What was your day job?
So are you doing freelance or what are you working on
I did the same two weeks ago. I'd rather work 26h a day building my two companies, than work 9-5. It's not about being happy. For me it was humiliating, brain-sucking, energy-killing. Definitely not for me.
I wish I could get out of the US.
Have you read Thou Shall Prosper?
Funny how if u count that as a corporate worker I got only a day per week to myself (since Saturday is a housekeeping day basically ) then in the last 7 years since quitting I have had enough free days to make it equivalent to 49 years of corporate, putting me into retirement zone. I have had more days of freedom than I would have had in a lifetime at corporate, around people I may or may not like.
I'd love to see like a moment to moment break of your new way. Is it all YT revenue? Are you still coding? How are you getting health insurance etc. The mundane details hold me back and wonder how you got at them.
Try balancing a 8-17 with freelancing just to earn roughly enough to get by 😅
Once you get ordered around by an abusive manager at work whom you know FOR A FACT is dumber, WAYYY DUMBER than you, you will start to rethink your life choices.
You are not entitled by saying youre not working your 9-5, you are still working, even youtube is still work (though some people does meaningless work like those mukbang shit). You are still working, though differently and with more freedom. With this work you get to share more meaningful ideas for people to ponder about (emphasis on meaningful).
Any advice for a 26 year old person career wise. I speak another language but haven't found a career yet.
Identify your skills and interests.

Do you still do ice baths over there?
Just did one today! When I was in Cambodia I found a MMA gym that did them 3 times a week, Now in Bali I found a gym that has a sauna, hot tub and ice bath!!!

Are you a developer?
If you're doing anything productive in your backyard and making around half the pay 9-5 would bring you, remind yourself you would have to pay someone to do the same stuff you do in the yard, and they'd probably mess it up, not do it your way or have to be watched over.
9-5 isnt made for everyone. I got ADHD and pretending to work makes me even more tired than actually doing something, and everyone works like that for a shitty pay. Topping that off that I don't agree with some decisions or tasks, I just get more tired than after a full day of physical work, leaving me with no motivation to do anything outside of the job, in my free time.
you left a 9-5--to work another job that pays less--what is the other job does it involve coding?

Are you still practicing bjj?
Yeah, you have been too independent for too long...it becomes almost impossible to rejoin the rat race once you go that route. The best work never feels like an effort. It feels like you are working on a gift that you plan to give to the world.
