Okay, well, I'd much rather have somebody who makes a million dollars a year with a saving problem, meaning he just spends too much, than the opposite or the inverse.
The guy who makes 10 grand a year and saves 99% of it, but he only makes 10K a year.
It is way harder, like way harder to make a lot of money than it is to solve for a spending issue.
Even if they know how to invest it, can they, can they stick to the plan for three decades?
Yeah.
Most people can't do it.
It's very hard, but for the people who do, man, the rewards are amazing.
Yeah, it's something like that.
Like the first generation builds it.
The next generation enjoys it.
The third person, the third generation destroys it.
Something like that.
And also on the flip side, what an honor it is for us to grow up at the bottom.
Because I can tell you that's been one of the biggest blessings in my life.
If I didn't have that pain to contrast my actions with, I wouldn't take the actions.
If you're born into wealth, I feel bad for those people, literally, because it is so hard to take action when you are like, oh, well, life is great.
You're subconscious, right?
Why would I take any action if I literally don't have to?
Having to psychologically manufacture reasons for action is really difficult.
Some people can do it.
