In this episode of Financially Incorrect, DJ Shinski shares the real story behind leaving a stable engineering career to pursue DJing full-time and building an international brand from scratch.Born in Kenya and later migrating to the United States through the green card lottery, DJ Shinski's journey is shaped by sacrifice, discipline, and calculated risk. From earning $6/hour at a call center while juggling school, to working in oil and gas engineering, to eventually betting everything on music, this conversation explores the financial and psychological decisions behind every transition.When the pandemic shut down live events, instead of waiting for the industry to recover, he pivoted online, streaming DJ mixes that attracted a global audience and generated thousands of dollars in fan support. Today, he performs across continents while investing in real estate and building long-term income beyond music.This episode breaks down what creatives rarely talk about: debt, instability, reinvention, branding, immigration challenges, and how money decisions shape career freedom.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Access all our links in one place: ⁠https://lnk.bio/Financially_Inc💹 Ready to start trading?🔍 Who is FXPesa: ⁠https://shorturl.at/rWFqC🎓 Learn how to trade: ⁠https://shorturl.at/xR2Ye⁠📊 Try a demo account: ⁠https://shorturl.at/izDMc⁠💸 Open a live account: ⁠https://shorturl.at/Od2ux---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Episode Chapters00:00 Introduction and Early Life03:00 Money Lessons and Financial Mindset08:00 School, Work, and Student Loans16:00 Discovering DJing and Early Career37:00 Oil and Gas Career and Setbacks50:00 Stable Job and DJ Growth54:00 Quitting Engineering for DJing1:00:00 COVID Pivot and Online Breakthrough1:07:00 Kenya Return and Business Explosion1:14:00 Global Expansion Strategy1:18:00 Role of Management1:28:00 Income, Workload, and Finances1:32:00 Future of DJing and Branding1:34:00 Visa Challenges and Mobility1:37:00 Three Paths for DJs1:40:00 Closing Thoughts and Socials
