So I said the first thing was that the very, very, very first point I made today was that you want to increase your income, right?

But how do you really do that?

Because when you factor in that it's one of the only things strong enough to break the cycle is that you just have to make more.

So think about it.

Like if you spend $2,000 having someone help you learn how to sell, ideally a place with some sort of, you know, placement assistance.

And if you can't find one, you're never going to make it anyways.

Just look on the internet.

All right.

I remember for me, I spent $750 per hour, which was like all the money to me at the time, for eight hours to have a guy who really knew how to do ads at a higher level.

Because remember, this is a guy who was going to charge $750, not your buddy.

You might be able to just buy him Chipotle and he'll do it for you.

But to have somebody who actually taught me how to run ads at a high level.

Those eight hours, that tutoring, that skill that I was able to learn from that one-on-one tutoring made me hundreds of millions.

Not just hundreds of millions, literally.

And so these are where you can get absurd returns that counteract the leak of that 3% compounding inflation.

And so part of the reason for that, there's twofold.

The first is that skills will always trade in today's nominations.

So whether we're trading dollars or Bitcoins or seashells, it doesn't matter.

Because if you have something valuable to exchange, you will be able to exchange it at the present value in whatever denomination exists.

And so that's why skills are always the ultimate hedge against inflation.
