Saving money is a contraction concept.

You cannot save your way to wealth.

You cannot save your way to freedom.

No one ever went broke because they didn't save enough money.

You cannot save your business.

You cannot save your brand.

No one ever went broke, by the way, because they spent too much.

The only way to save anything, true prosperity and affluence come from expansion and risk-taking, not from saving.

People go broke because their income stops.

If you're earning more income than you're spending, then you're always gonna be fine, particularly if it's passive income.

The middle class is built on budgets.

It is built on adding and subtracting, and wealth is created with division and multiplication.

not earned income.

School is teaching us how to get a job and how to get some money, but they never teach us what to do with the money and how to get money to multiply.

So the ultimate goal of wealthy people, for all your listeners, the ultimate goal of wealthy people is not to have income at all.

It is to have passive income that is not earned.

but that comes from investments.

Cash flow, not cash, is more valuable than cash because cash goes down in value.

So look, like,

Most people, we go to school, which the whole college thing is just another middle class trap.
