It's like people will buy into that. And, you know, one thing I always tell people too, is like, you're going to pay with either the financial paycheck or the emotional paycheck. And it's like, People value both. It's not just people work because they're going to make so much money. They work because, man, what kind of fulfillment and purpose does this give me?
And man, if you're not working on the emotional side, it's going to be hard to keep people.
How many weird jobs do you have? You're the chief inspiration guy, and then you have the dream officer.
Yeah, I mean, there's once again, different aspects of life, right? You named them faith, family, fitness, finance, all those things. So like the way that most people perceive wealth is financial. And for me, it's not, I mean, it's a piece. It's not the only piece, right? Like I want to have a great marriage. I want to have great faith. I want to be in great shape. I want to make a lot of money.
Like I want to do all those things, right? Well-rounded. Yeah. Like I don't want to be deficient in any of them. And whenever I see people who are deficient and even just one of them, like you can tell, you just can. It's like, dude, I mean, you know, you go meet these rich guys who are out of shape and it's like, bro, like, This ain't it. I wouldn't trade places with you.
I don't care that you got a hundred million more dollars. It doesn't matter to me. I wouldn't want that. So I think it's just this reshift in people's minds of like, well, like let's first prioritize what's the most important, like how much money do you actually need at the end of the day? Right.
And you know, not for you, you're going to keep doing you, but like for the normal person, like, yo, like what's the number?
Well, the normal everyday person I think is probably could live a great life in most places for like 20 grand a month, right?
If you're just talking about reoccurring income, yeah. Yeah, for sure. Like if you bring it in 20 grand a month, you can pretty much have most decent things in life, right? 50 grand a month. I mean, it's hard to spend 50 grand a month like and truly live that way. So you start to like reverse engineer it and you're like, okay, well, How do I make 20 grand a month? Right.
How can I make it actively first? Okay. Then from there, how do I start making it passively?
And it's like, you just reverse engineer that. So like people don't even know what their number is. They just keep going. And then it's like, okay, cool. You hit the number. You don't have to stop making money. That's not the whole point. It's just like, okay. Are there other priorities now that you would rather have? Would you rather trade instead of growing to make 50 into 100?
Would you rather now start spending more time with your family? Would you rather start taking Fridays off to golf? Would you rather start vacationing more? Because now you have options. And I think everyone's default thing is because we're always working so hard as entrepreneurs is, oh, grow. We got to keep making more money.
But it's like, for me, that's not my default thing of like, let's spend every hour optimizing my time to make money. It's, all right, let's spend every hour doing the things that I feel like I'm supposed to do in my life.
Well, and the truth is, too, the reason we work on finance first is because you do need it for most of the other things to even work, right? Like, you got to pay rent or have a mortgage or whatever, right?
You got to make money.
We can't do anything, right? So like money definitely is a huge piece of it. But it's like, you know, most entrepreneurs, they don't adapt as they grow. They just kind of like, like Dan Martell brought it up even with you. He's like, why don't you have a chef? This doesn't make sense. And it's like, well, this is how I've always done it. This is what got me to this point.
And he's like, well, you want to get to the next point. This is what it is.
Yeah. Yeah. I have a saying too. It's kind of a bad saying, but it's true. It's like, assume everyone is stupid. Like, yeah, it's true. I don't mean it in a derogatory way, but if you do that with your marketing, you'll always keep it simple. You always make sure they know the main point of what you're making.
And then when you're doing it with employees or anyone else, you're just not letting anything be assumed that like they would understand what you know. It's like, no dude, like let's explain this from the ground level. Yeah. This is the shirt you wear this, like, this is how you would talk to a fifth grader, but it's, you have to do it.
And the same thing with your kids, like you would never assume they know that because you just know they don't. You know, I was talking to the leader of our nonprofit with wealthy kingdom. And I was telling Justin this on, on the way here on the flight, but you know, we were just talking about budgets and he's like,
