Matthew McConaughey explains why young people should take more risks
“I wish I'd have taken more risk as a kid. I look back, I took quite a few risks as a kid. I still wish I would have taken more”
“As a young person, you are probably not going to be doing what you're doing right now when you’re 50 years old”
“You might be in the same industry but you're not going to be doing what you think your specialty is right now”
“You will meet people. You will get offers. You will get an opportunity”
“Someone will not be able to come to work and you're going to have to pick up their job and all of a sudden, it's going to lead you off a feeder road of where you're heading”
“You're going to find yourself loving something and you're going to look up in a few years and go, ‘My gosh, I'm doing this. I didn't plan on this. I'm getting paid well, I kind of love this’”
“Go with it”
