you know there are things money can't buy you know it but you forget it you forget that fundamentally you're on the same level as the richest people in the world you have to appreciate these things now so that when your wealth grows your motivation and happiness can grow too so we're here to remind you about these things treasure them work on them and know that no amount of money in the world can ever buy them for you we're starting off at number one today with a personality everyone has a personality I mean that's what makes

you human right but some people are way more interesting than others and that's not something that money can buy all the private school education sports activities and designer brands in the world only give you just a slightly brighter glow you still need a personality to bring all of those things together and there's no amount of money out there that can get you a great personality studies show that people who focus on material wealth actually struggle to build deeper connections they rely on all of their stuff to tell their story but your story and personality are

shaped by your life experiences your mindset and how you connect with other people you can be the poorest person in a room of rich people and everyone will still gravitate towards you because well you make them feel good you make them feel something you bring intrinsic value to their lives even if it's just a short conversation number two the truth a lot of money time emotions have been spent on trying to get the truth from someone but if they're not willing to give it to you there's nothing you can do about it it'll always remain

hidden and if you've squeezed the truth out of someone with the promise of riches or the threat of fear then whatever they tell you isn't going to be the full truth anyway begging someone for the truth will only keep them telling you what you want to hear because well well that's how they hold on to control you can only get the truth from truthful people and when you find the right people the truth is free number three a world ruled by sanity and reason a world ruled by sanity honesty and reason seems like a totally

fair request but in all of human history it doesn't seem like we've ever actually had that even now with the most advanced economies and political systems we still read the news in complete disbelief we're gobsmacked that the very people who are inow just seem so absolutely unhinged money clearly cannot buy peace maybe it's because humans are emotional by nature and emotions drive a lot of decisions but no amount of money can ever change how people feel or react to situations Albert Einstein nailed it when he said two things are infinite the universe and human stupidity

We crave a word world that makes sense because it feels safe and predictable but we're never going to have that not really because fear anger and love Cloud your judgment and that's just a part of The Human Experience number four natural Charisma and charm if you've ever been around a naturally Charming person and you've seen how they can control a room and effortlessly have all eyes on them well you know it's not something that money can buy sometimes the brokest shabbiest looking people out there are like magnets in a Social Circle what on Earth has

given them so much confidence well it's a step up from having a great personality because people don't just find you interesting they find you magnetic there's a certain confidence with charismatic people that you can only possess if you're a little bit delusional when you couple that with the ability to listen hold a great conversation and show genuine interest in other people well then you've got a recipe for Social Circle royalty Charisma comes from within it's built on your confidence empathy and your ability to connect with people number five great loyal friends think about this when

has a great genuine friendship ever been built on a financial transaction celebrities pay their assistants and makeup artists and they become their friends but there's something inauthentic about it both sides don't actually feel totally safe because it it is still a transactional relationship the person paying their friend will always have a question lingering in the back of their minds wondering if that person is only around them for the money and the person getting paid well they'll always feel like there's a power imbalance in the friendship you can't buy loyalty and love from a friend you

can buy fear control even politeness but a friendship built on money is always going to feel flimsy and delicate real friendships are about understanding trust and emotional bonds things that come from shared time not shared wealth number six Common Sense backed up by fact you know it's almost like everyone has a different type of common sense because some of the people shouting about it well they do some of the dumbest most illogical it's clear now that common sense is influenced by people's beliefs not facts logic or an intelligent discussion you can't pay someone else to

have enough common sense and most of all you cannot buy it for yourself the scary thing is that most people don't even know that they're lacking it it's not tied to education or wealth it's about learning from life looking at patterns and then making choices that fit the situation fact-based Common Sense will help you work through life challenges much easier but you can only build it through looking back at your mistakes and being honest with yourself about what you could have done differently for some some people their ego is far too big for common sense

to ever Prevail and on top of Common Sense money also can't buy you number seven higher emotional intelligence people with high emotional intelligence are better leaders in every aspect of their lives they can lead their families their teams their friends and themselves without feeling like it's an extra emotional burden at least that's what a study published in the Harvard Business Review showed us which is why on the alux app we have multiple courses on emotional intelligence we understand how important it is to be a good leader on the app we've got a course on the

courses put a bridge over that River so while you still have to do the work at least you've got some help that realization isn't influenced by money and power someone could spend thousands of dollars trying to connect with themselves going to therapy and visiting silent Retreats across the world and still not accelerate their emotional intelligence because they are not actually doing any work it's up to you you have to walk across that bridge in the ax app we give you the science and psychology behind it and give you practical tools to develop it but all

that work is yours through your awareness and your practice as you're improving your EQ you have to constantly look at how your actions and words impact other people without it affecting your emotional state no guilt no shame just observation understanding and real change that is difficult okay you have to control your ego and then control your emotions money can't give you any of that your ego and your emotions will laugh in the face of a million dollars if it's in a difficult position all of this axer is up to you number eight it can't buy

rich people especially teenagers who come from wealthy families have higher rates of depression anxiety and substance abuse good mental health really comes back to those genes some people are born happy and stable and they're able to hold on to that for their entire lives but others are born troubled your environment and the people around you can make it better or worse in both cases but you can't buy the foundation you start off with money can give you access to help but it's not going to suddenly make you better everyone no matter what number shows in

your wallet you get them by looking into your past but sometimes we look into the past the wrong way like through your mouth because one thing's for certain and that's number 15 money cannot buy your youth back the value people place on the youth is wasted on them they don't know what it's like to be young and carefree and that's exactly what you start to Envy when you get older the idea of living your life in your own Haze not even thinking about the future much less worrying about it now people also want to recreate
