Financial Freedom in 30 Days with Adrian Brambila and Dr. Brad Klontz!

And by the way, you can then find examples of greedy rich people who are horrible human beings. It's not like there's not a lack of examples of that. There absolutely are plenty. But it's only part of the story.

There are also rich people, and I hope everyone listening to this becomes rich and does great things in the world, who cure diseases, who donate their fortunes to making the world a better place, who are actually really, really good people. These are most of the people I've met.

By the way, most poor people I meet are really good people, and most rich people tend to be really good people, at least in my experience. That mindset, if you're not aware of it, it will knock you down. It will keep you down. You'll have a confirmation bias where you're screening out all information.

Like if I tell you, for example, that some billionaire is donating 97% of their wealth, that money avoidance mindset will say, yeah, yeah, but they're doing it for these nefarious reasons. And it's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, I just told you they're giving away 97% of their wealth. And so you got to be aware of that. You got to be aware.

And so the other thing I'll say, and to wrap this up, is an open-mindedness. So one of the things that's really associated with success, a growth mindset, a rich mindset, is being open to new experiences and open to new information. And so always being curious. So Adrian likes to joke that I'm edumacated. I grew up lower incomes.

I always feel like I'm sort of faking in that environment, the educated environment. But one of the things I've learned along the way is the more that I have studied in psychology, so the more I realize how much I don't know.

It's like, I feel like I don't, I was way more confident about what I knew before I got a doctorate. And I think that's sort of the mindset you need to have is don't be so cocky. Don't be so self-assured that you got it all figured out.

Because even for us, even for me, when it comes to psychology of money, I feel like I know about this much, you know, I know a little bit, I know a quarter's worth. When the world is just so expansive and there's so much more to learn. So always be curious because you're getting what you're getting in life right now because of what you know and probably what you don't know.
