My friend, thank you so much for being here today. And I have a massive announcement, super big, something I've been doing behind the scenes for the last two years. But really, it's been 12 years in the making since I started the School of Greatness show. And if you are looking to create financial freedom in your life, if you're looking to create financial peace, if you want more abundance and And if you're looking to go from where you are at your financial situation to creating way more, then I have a special surprise for you. Because for the last couple of years, I've been working behind the scenes, deep research, a lot of work on a brand new book that I'm announcing to you today. And it is coming out very soon. It is called... Make Money Easy.
And I cannot wait to get this book in your hands. Now, again, it's called Make Money Easy because for most of us, we make money hard. And if you want to create financial freedom and live a richer life, this is the book for you. And there's a few things I want to share with you today. to cover around the book, but also the mindset shift that you need to change in order to unlock prosperity and abundance for your life. And some of the biggest interviews that we've done on the School of Greatness are around money. Why? Because money is such a big topic in our lives. And so many people feel the stress, they feel the strain, they feel the constraints of their money situation. A lot of people are in debt so much from student loans still, where they've used their credit cards to the max and they feel this complexity. constant month to month, am I able to get out of this debt? In fact, our whole nation is in trillions of dollars of debt. It's kind of a mindset of getting the debt, getting the debt to get ahead. But for a lot of people, it doesn't turn out well.
One of the biggest causes of divorce are around money problems. People fight with friends and family around money problems. This is such a big topic. Again, the biggest episodes we do are around money and how to unlock more abundance in your life. And I thought to myself a few years ago, after writing The Greatest Mindset, that becoming a big New York Times bestseller, I said, what is the thing that people need the most? I asked you. I did polls. I did questions out on social media to our email list. I said, what is your biggest pain point and problem? And you responded with money. So money it is. And my goal is to help you make money easy. And again, we have a brand new book and I want you to pre-order it today because I'm going to give you a very special money masterclass when you do. I'm going to share more details on that in a second. But first, I want to share a few stories that I think are going to be powerful for you today. Whether you get this book or not, I want you to understand a very important principle around money.
And again, I've had the fortune of interviewing some of the wealthiest people in the world, billionaires, mega billionaires, multimillionaires, people who have exited hundreds of millions and billions dollars worth of companies. And I've asked poor people questions about what keeps them stuck. I've asked wealthy people questions about what unlocks the keys to freedom in their finances. And it's been fascinating over the last 12 years, the research, the science, the practical tips and lessons I've been able to gain from interviewing all these individuals. Plus, in the book, I share so many stories about my own money problems. Yes, if this is your first time coming to me or you're new to this show, about, what was it, 15 years ago, I was broke on my sister's couch for a year and a half, making almost nothing, barely scrapping by. One point in my life, I was a truck driver making $250 a week, driving a truck six hours a day from Columbus, Ohio to Cincinnati, Ohio, and back every day, five days a week.
I bounced on the weekends for, you know, 10 bucks an hour and trying to get some tips at a nightclub. And I played arena football where I got paid $250 a week as well back in 2007. So I had many different seasons of life where I had no money, I was broke, and I had no clue how I was going to make money.
