That's a classic clip for a good movie. Worth watching if you haven't watched it yet.
When you habe kids you get a bit more focused, my advice to my kids is simply to do what makes them happy (within reason). If you do that then money is a bonus and doesn't matter anyway because you are happy. Took me a few years, and working for some terrible bosses, to work that out!

Its a great film, unfortunately based on very true life which I see a lot of in Thailand.
I decided at a young age that the being happy was important. I also worked for a terrible boss (my dad), joking, in his accounts section. Although it had brought him good wealth I just didn't see myself doing it for the next 30 years so got out after about 4 months. I returned to Asia where I had a good time back packing with not much of a plan and started working for a lady who ran an export company exporting about 40 containers a month to a single customer. I decided that it wasn't to difficult and started doing it myself with a partner who also worked for the same company. 8 years on, Im loving it and it only takes up a few hours of my day to go and enjoy doing things that I like to do whenever I want and give me a bit of time in the evenings to have a play about on BF.
