It not entirely inaccurate - even based on some of the comments here. The number of hiring managers on this app that actively admit to pedigree based bias is only proof in my mind of the systemic advantage of growing up with wealthy as it relates to the ability to accumulate it.

🤷‍♀️hmmm…that isn’t how I would describe his teachings in the book…but I guess to each their own. If what he is saying doesn’t apply to one’s life then they don’t need to shift their financial mindset in the way he suggests. I found a lot of it valuable.

There is a book called “rich dad, poor dad” that teaches this lesson. It’s actually an amazing book that I would recommend reading. These bullets summarize it but make it seem more shallow without having all the additional context.

Anyway…I don’t necessarily agree that this content is bad if you are familiar with the book. 🤷‍♀️

If I am remembering correctly….

The “poor dad” came from a wealthy family that valued education. I think he was a professor but made just over $100k a year but lived pay check to pay check.

The “rich dad” started from nothing but understood how to make his money make money. Never got an education but took jobs with the purpose to teach him how to run a business. Invested in real estate…never bought anything until he had the cash…etc…

Anyway…great book…

Anyone else finding it very difficult to get any enjoyment out of account management these days? Any coping tips? I feel like being an account person is especially difficult in the COVID era since so much of what we do is manage communications, ensure the team is set up well etc. None of this feels particularly fun alone staring into the void of Zoom all day ... but the same pressure is still there. I feel like I spend every week counting down to the weekend which kinda sucks.

One thing we haven’t spoken about are your salary expectations. Could you have a think and let me know early next week as well as your employment status (residency permit)."

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
