Thanks for these videos. Quitting big law (in 2001) was the best thing I ever did. Stigma that quitting meant I wasn't going to 'make it' unwarranted. Happier, thinner and more rested as a solo.

Delighted for you on this adventure! I can resonate with similar backgrounds from Canada, California, and Hong Kong. I left my HK big law job (fancy magic circle relic) ~2009 financial crisis. However brief, the experience showed me I'd rather be in my first passion, computer engineering. Took some years to make it happen, first thru banking, but then eventually into business and product roles at big tech. Recently "FI / retired at 39"... figuring out the vision of this next decade. It's incredibly hard to dispel society's expectations and rewire your life. I find it helpful to listen to your gut over reason and be persistent. Wishful and excited for you guys!

Em and Lloyd, The both of you have great passports (US & Canada + HK), and the fact that the both of you can plan so meticulously whilst maintaining financial stability is something commendable. If you ever have a kid in the future, the best gift you can give to him/her is your Canada + USA + HK passports. I know that the both of you said that staying in HK is the plan for now, but thinking about a different country will be great. Especially those with jus soli types of citizenships - so your kid will have unlimited access to the world. I am envious - but I wish the both of you the best.

It's great to see a self-fulfillment path being chosen. You can always return to law whenever you'd like so there's really no urgency. This whole situational epiphany is very interesting. I love this situation because I very much look forward to the positives both of you can create from being in creative mode. I say that because of the professional and intellectual background both of you have. This KZfaq channel is definitely helpful to many. I think both of you have the capacity to do even more and that potential is very exciting. I look forward to what both of you can produce on changing life for the better and in a positive note.

Thanks for the video! inspiring as always. 2 quick Qs from a junior working in US: 1, apart from lineage/family connection and tuition, is there any other reason you went to law school in HK instead of UK or US? 2, I understand you are taking a break from the legal industry, but how do you see the HK market going forward? Obviously there are short term benefits, such as the failed/censored US ipos doing listing on HKEX, but I am curious re whether the political climate is slowly but inevitbaly compromising the judicial system of HK in terms of credibility and clients' willingness to select HK courts, as well as HKIAR as their DR forum.

Kudos to you two..... Being born in HK, spent 10 yrs in Vancouver and end up in Toxic HK medical industry. I think the most important factor about quitting...... basically for any Asian family is the "parents". Since mine still demanded 100K HKD per month from me. I don't see how I would quit.

What was your experience growing up in North America and then going to school/working in HK? Most people do the opposite (growing up in HK and study in the West) I grew up in HK and moved to Canada when I was 10. When I visit HK in my teens, I never thought I could go back to Asia. How was your experience going the opposite direction?

I’m not sure what to think about the trend of “quitting” a job in order to become a full time content creator. Yes, a full time job is strenuous. I’m a technical senior expert myself and can relate to the pressure, responsibility and working late hours. And of course, one’s own well-being should always be a priority. But to me, quitting a job for a more comfortable alternative sometimes feels a bit backboneless. What about sticking it out and growing instead of avoiding? Our society needs nurses, teachers, doctors, engineers, craftsmen, janitors,… Especially adolescents may be mislead by the trend of content creation as full time job.
@BE-qe5by
@BE-qe5by 2 жыл бұрын
I get where you're coming from but theres still a shit ton of people who pursue a traditional career. I don't think it's fair to want someone to stick something out for the sake of sticking it out. If it doesn't bring them any joy then they're just wasting their time, and for what? Aren't most of us working for a more comfortable life style anyways? Good for them that they're in a place where they can leave their traditional career and try something new out. They still have their degrees, they can go back to being lawyers whenever.
@EmandLloyd
@EmandLloyd 2 жыл бұрын
It depends on what one's definition of "comfortable" is - arguably, continuing to work as a lawyer (despite finding the career unsatisfying) could be the more "comfortable" choice given the stability and pay, and avoiding taking the risk of trying something new when one may not be feeling fulfilled with their work could also be a missed opportunity for growth and challenge. Agreed that society does need people to pursue important careers, although there was certainly no shortage of lawyers in Hong Kong - quite the opposite actually!
