Aspiring 100mm+ nw tips please



East Asian Male in top east asian uni business program. Currently 18yrs old with 1(not very legit) internship exp. Personal NW of $5mm from parents + grandparents. Will most likely end up at a IB jobs fresh out of college. Through the conventional finance route in east asia, I think its not realistic to reach 100mm, hence I am seeking advice for how I can achieve 100mm as a east asian in finance. Would i be through P/E or should I go immigrate to US?













 

$5mm in East Asia is basically $100mm.

move to a 3rd world country where coffee is 10 cents

I visited Indonesia for 3 weeks and stayed on an island called Sumbawa. The fee for lodging was like $7 per night, which included coffee and a banana chocolate chip pancake as breakfast. The coffee was thick and rich Indonesian coffee. The location was in front of the surf break Lakey Peak. Also, they had this rice and bean dish wrapped up in a banana leaf for 10 cents. Cigarettes were a dollar US. There was a Mexican taco place there too with tacos and burritos and margaritas. All super cheap. The most expensive part is the plane ticket to get there.
