What do waiting tables, running errands, and random side jobs have to do with long term success?

In this episode of Building Financial Fitness, we chat with Zen about how menial work shaped his mindset, character, and approach to life. Despite doing well academically, Zen took on all kinds of jobs from a young age, not just for pocket money, but to learn what he enjoyed, what he wanted to avoid, and how to relate to people from all walks of life.

The focus is less on stacking impressive roles and more on what you pick up along the way, especially the small moments that shape how you think and interact with people.

As Zen puts it, “If we set our heart right, we will earn trust. And trust is the most important currency in life.”
