Quit Like a Millionaire

Three of the ideas you’ll keep

The Clif summary of Quit Like a Millionaire pulls out 7 insights. Here are the first three.

1. Kristy grew up handling medical waste in a Chinese village on 44 cents a day, and that **Scarcity Mindset**, treating every dollar as survival, became her financial superpower, not a wound to overcome.
2. Passion is terrible career advice; her **POT Score** (Pay-Over-Tuition, the salary a field can earn you divided by what the degree costs) ranks careers by ROI, which is why she chose engineering over her beloved but low-paying dream of writing, and over the accounting her mother pushed.
3. Debt is not one thing: attack **high-interest debt** aggressively, but for **low-interest debt** you can often profit by investing the difference, so the decision is arithmetic, not moral.

The other 4 — and the full 11-minute summary — are in the app.
