Welcome to another empowering episode of the Building Your Money Machine Show! I’m Mel Abraham, your host, and today I’m pulling back the curtain on something I’ve learned after decades as a CPA and money mentor: wealth is not just predictable, it’s climbable. After staring at more spreadsheets and tax returns than I care to admit, I can confidently say the math always maths out.In this episode, I break down every level of wealth—from financial struggle all the way to abundance and even the ultra-rich—so you can finally see where you are on the wealth ladder, what it feels like at each stage, and the concrete steps to move to the next level. Think of this as your real roadmap to financial freedom.This isn’t about earning more just for the sake of it. True freedom begins when your money is working harder for you than you did for it. I’ll walk you through the traps to avoid, the mindsets to adopt, and the specific actions to take at each rung of the ladder, including how to handle crises, build stability, achieve independence, and ultimately design your life with purpose and legacy in mind.IN TODAY’S EPISODE, I DISCUSS:The 7 Levels of WealthThe critical mindset shifts required to move up each rung of the wealth ladderEmergency funds, comfort funds, peace of mind funds, and how to use each as building blocksWhen to shift focus from saving to investingWhy most Americans are stuck in paycheck-to-paycheck modeThe keys to protecting your wealth as you growHow to transition from financial independence to freedomThe real meaning of wealthRECOMMENDED EPISODES FOR YOUIf you liked this episode, click here to enjoy these and more:https://melabraham.com/show/Never Make These 12 Mistakes if You Want to RetireThe Real Cost of Pretending to be RichWhy Buying a Home is NOT the American DreamWhy Most Americans Never Escape the Middle Class TrapWhat Everyone Gets Wrong About FIRERECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU If you liked this video, you'll love these ones:Never Make These 12 Mistakes if You Want to Retire: https://youtu.be/ifbBd9PH8cYThe Real Cost of Pretending to be Rich: https://youtu.be/D8DgveoFPEMWhy Buying a Home is NOT the American Dream: https://youtu.be/ERxc8qmfjlAWhy Most Americans Never Escape the Middle Class Trap: https://youtu.be/VBMqrkvvHrYORDER MY NEW USA TODAY BESTSELLING BOOK:Building Your Money Machine: How to Get Your Money to Work Harder For You Than You Did For It!The key to building the life you desire and deserve is to build your Money Machine—a powerful system designed to generate income that’s no longer tied to your work or efforts.
