all right so you're broke I'm broke Jeff Bezos is not so what's going on here is there an actual science to getting rich or did some people just spawn in with a VIP Game Pass and why can't we the broke ones get the hold of that VIP Game Pass well today I'm exposing everything behind the scenes of making money and I'm not gatekeeping a sh and uh hopefully by the end of this we'll all be rich or at least less broke okay here's the thing money isn't real well it's technically real in the sense that
you can buy tacos with it but in the grand scheme of the universe it's just paper and digital numbers we all agree to give value to money is literally a game except instead of jumping on mushrooms like Mario we're out here paying taxes and pretending to understand credit scores think of money like Monopoly some people start the game already owning boardwalk and Park Place some people start the game with nothing but debt and bad luck and some people figure out how to hack the game like those people who buy all the railroads and suddenly control
the entire transportation system the economy works the same way rich people own the game board they invest in companies real estate and stocks most people trade time for money they work a 9 to5 and get paid a fixed salary but here's the catch the game is rigged so that just working hard doesn't necessarily make you win and don't get me wrong hard work matters but only if you're working on the right things now you might be thinking wait if money is a game how come some people start with a full inventory of cheat codes While
others are stuck doing side quests just to survive the reason generational wealth plus financial literacy plus capitalism being capitalism generational wealth some people are born with millions and assets which means they don't have to start from scratch financial literacy the rich teach their kids how money actually works While most schools barely teach how to file taxes the rules favor people who already have money basically the game is set up so that the rich keep winning and everyone else has to grind like crazy just to stay afloat okay so what do you do with this information
you learn how to cheat the system step one is to understand how money flows most people trade time for money but rich people trade money for more money poor mindset I'll work more hours to make more money Rich mindset I'll invest in something that makes money for me while I sleep step two you need to stop spending money like a player with infinite lives buying expensive things that lose value equals to playing on hard mode buying things that make money equals to playing on easy mode and step three is to level up your skills the
best way to make more money become more valuable the higher your skills the more the game rewards you because suddenly companies need you more than you need them the people who win at this game do three things really well they learn the rules early they make their money work for them they leverage opportunities instead of just working harder so yeah money is a game and the good news now you know how to actually win the bad news you still have to actually play so let's talk about how to use this knowledge to go from broken
confused to Rich and slightly less confused Once Upon a Time humans would just trying not to die no one was hoarding gold or worrying about their credit score they were out there like do I have food am I being chased by a lion can I throw this rock at my problems fast forward to now and guess what your brain still operates on short-term survival mode except instead of lions it's rent door Dash and an existential crisis every Tuesday this is the problem most people are hardwired to think shortterm you get money spend it you feel
bad buy something you see a new iPhone suddenly you're old one is garbage rich people rewire their brains to think longterm most people think how can I make money to survive this month rich people think how can I make money that keeps making more money forever and that's why they invest instead of just saving focus on assets not just income delay gratification skipping that $5 coffee investing it and in 40 years they own a spaceship kind of so the secret weapon compounding when your money makes money then that money also makes money example you invest
$11,000 at 10% Interest next year it's $1,100 year after $1,210 fast forward a few decades you're rich the earlier you start the more the system does the work for you most people think making more money will fix their problems get a raise expenses go up make six figures still broke win the lottery most winners go broke in 5 years cuz it's not about how much you make it's about how you use it rich people don't just earn money they make their money work for them and here's three simple rules to escape the broke mindset rule

$1,000 in a shoe box a year later it's still $1,000 but because of inflation it buys less stuff meanwhile rich people's money is making more money through Investments solution start investing doesn't have to be much index funds solid real estate if you have the cash Pokemon cards eh maybe not the key is to get your money working for you instead of letting inflation slowly rob you blind reason number three you're buying dumb stuff just because you can afford something doesn't mean you should buy it most people go broke trying to look rich design of clothes
