This test as told is based on a conversation with Salim Elhilaco -founder of Decentralized masters. It was published for duration and clarity.
When I was at the beginning of the twenty, I Leave my job And rented a van. I lived in Australia at the time for this job and I spent three months traveling the country from south to north. It was ultimate freedom. I could just park the van and sleep wherever I wanted. I realized that I wanted a life with the freedom to go anywhere, at any time.
Before Living vanI was on the right track for a career in traditional finance. I grew up in France and later Morocco. I studied mathematics and engineering in France and I started working in predictive finance after obtaining the diploma. For six years, I went up to business positions around the world until I got this job in Australia.
He came with a good salary and a good lifestyle, but the work made me miserable. I realized that the business world, with its strict executives, was not for me.
I continued to travel and I discovered electronic commerce
After Travel through AustraliaI went to Bali. There, I spotted a guy working on his laptop on the beach. He explained to me that he had an e -commerce company and had been able to earn about $ 1,000 per month of work from anywhere. It was incredible for me because, with this sum of money, you could live anywhere in Southeast Asia.
Meanwhile, I lacked money. I returned to my parents’ home in Morocco and I asked them to borrow € 2,000 (around $ 2,100) to start an electronic business business. In a few weeks, I made $ 10,000 by selling phone cases that looked like Gameboys.
The two friends co -founded the decentralized Masters company. With the kind permission of Salim Elhila
I met my trading partner and our company quickly grew up
The money was good, but the electronic commerce was not satisfactory with me. I became very interested in cryptocurrencies and I asked my networks if someone knew a cryptography expert. This is how I met Tan.
Tan also directed his own business prosperous at the time. We were both in the middle of their twenties and spent time exchanging information on company and crypto. Like the typical young men, we also celebrated together. We could vibrate personally and professionally, and by the end of the year, we knew that we wanted to launch a business.
Our company, decentralized Masters, came to life in 2022. We teach investors – most of which have fairly traditional portfolios – on crypto investment. He took off quickly and last year, we won more than $ 13 million in income. I am now multimillionaire.
Tan and I are opposite, and it is our power
Tan and I have become incredibly close in recent years. We spend almost all our time together. I think I see him more than his mother at this stage. Our families have also become close and I call her mother my second mother. Last year, we took our two families to a Holidays in Japan.
Life is sometimes mystical, and meeting Tan felt this way. Our company was so successful because we are opposed. Everything I miss, he has a lot and vice versa. Our employees call us Yin and Yang. I am creative, while Tan is the quintessence of the structure. It has a strange capacity to go from the order of chaos.
Tan and I plan to work together in the long term
When you get financial success like ours at such a young age, it can be difficult to stay connected to reality. Sometimes you forget that you live a really special life.
Tan and I live in the same building in Dubai, in units with the same layout, on a few floors. We did not plan that – it happened.
We have about 10 people who help us optimize our lives. This includes executive assistants, chiefs, personal coaches and stretched coaches. We try to make sure that each aspect of our day is optimized in all aspects.
We even plan our pleasure. At the beginning of the year, we list the places we want to go and the experiences we want to have. We travel together frequently, whether in the United States to meet other people in crypto or Mykonos Island For a little sun. We make sure to have time in our schedule to date, because we do not want aspects of our life to be overlooked. This year, we are also planning to attend more spiritual pensions.
Tan and I are business partners, and hope to be for life. We are intentional to live at a rate that we can maintain over the next 40 to 60 years.
