Bill Hoogterp emphasizes that top performers like Bill Gates and Sheryl Sandberg invest in their own potential. He notes that many people defer to external expectations rather than taking charge of their growth. Hoogterp encourages individuals, particularly Gen Z, to cultivate their skills and commit time to personal investment for career advancement. He compares career development to financial investment, suggesting that proactively investing effort can yield significant benefits over time.

What the top 1% do well is they invest in themselves-and it's something he says everyone should be doing if they want to elevate their careers.
You have a pot of money, a few $1,000, and you're starting your career. You could sit it under the mattress or invest it in the bank.
