The three most harmful addictions are heroin, carbohydrates, and a monthly salary — Nassim Nicholas Taleb

On June 1, 2024, I quit what many may consider a prestigious job in quant finance to pursue my dreams. In many respects, it was the best job I could have asked for: excellent pay, challenging work, driven teammates, and skyscraper office in New York City. But something inside me still felt it wasn’t what I was meant to be doing. For these next 90 days, I’ll be documenting what it’s like to dive into a career I’m wholly unprepared for.

I have never:

  • founded a company before

  • sold a product online

  • fully embraced my creative side

  • lived an unstructured life

In spite of those things, I’m deciding to go down this path to see what it’s really like to, as many like to say, “do the thing.”
