And that's sort of how you got your first million.

You know, you had a million in the bank, but you know, you were not rocking really fancy clothes or fancy car for a while.

So talk to us about how you got to your first million.

And today, like, even though you seem flashy, after researching you and listening to more videos and really getting to know you, you're actually like naturally pretty frugal.

So I'd love for you to talk about that.

Yes.

So too frugal, by the way, I was too frugal, but it did put me in a position to learn discipline.

So when my friends were all buying a Rolex or a BMW or going on vacation, I wasn't like nobody knew I was rich until I was about 45 years old.

People like, hey, what are you doing?

I never, ever rented a private plane.

I've never been on a private plane until I bought my own plane.

But this is years, 25 years of me making investments.

I wasn't saving money.

I mean, I was being frugal to some degree, just because I personally would never spend earned income.

This is something that will, if you use this one principle, you are guaranteed to be rich.

Beyond anything you've ever imagined.

Yes.

So too frugal, by the way, I was too frugal, but it did put me in a position to learn discipline.

I've never spent earned income to improve my standard of living.

So earned income, if I make $100,000 and I have $40,000 left over, the whole $40,000 gets stored.
