Today, Sahil Bloom is a New York Times bestselling author helping everyone from office workers to billionaires redefine their perceptions of success. But being a wealth guru wasn’t what he first set out to do in life; while studying at Stanford University he played for the baseball team, with a promising athletic career ahead of him. After an injury derailed his MLB dreams, Bloom turned to investing, asking rich people in his circle for professional advice. Less than a decade later, his hustle had paid off.
“By the time I turned 30, I had achieved every marker of what I believed success looked like,” Bloom wrote in his book The 5 Types of Wealth: A Transformative Guide to Design Your Dream Life. “I had the high-paying job, the title, the house, the car—it was all there.”
