Would you rather
spend on a luxury lifestyle for 5 years
or
save for the next 50?
I spent real money in the 90s–2000s because it was part of the job: custom suits, luxury cars, watches, boats, and the best cities in the world.
Do I have money today? Yes.
Would I have more if I saved everything? Yes.
But what if I had more money… and no memories?
No relationships.
No access.
No stories.
No perspective.
That sounds broke to me.
Did I get an emotional return on my spending?
What would you do?
Name one thing that’s better than being next at the deli counter.
You’ve got your number.
You look up at the screen.
You’re holding 67.
They just called 66.
That moment?
Heart pounding.
Not everyone wants to be a millionaire.
There are really three types of people.
Type 1:
They don’t believe it’s possible for them so they never try. They hate people who are rich.
Type 2:
They want it, but want it fast.
They chase shortcuts, hype, and quick wins.
Type 3:
They want it and they’re willing to build it.
Long game. Reps. Discipline. Consistency.
Millionaires don’t come from motivation.
They come from Type 3 behavior. Which is doing the boring work long after everyone else quits.
If you hate sales, you’re choosing to stay broke.
This is for business owners.
Sales is helping people fix a problem and getting paid fairly for it.
Learn how to persuade, negotiate, and handle objections.
The better you are at communicating value, the more money finds its way to you.
Sales skills pay back more than anything else you can learn.
@michelle200567@SenFettermanPA Agreed. We need more common sense politicians. The only thing that should have been on their minds was to get people back to work.
Millionaires have multiple income streams.
If your paycheck stops, would your life stop?
My multi-millionaire friend set his up years ago. He calls it his magic mailbox.
Do you have income that earns while you sleep?
I learned in shop class there are only four things that cause an engine to not run. Equipment, fuel, air, and spark.
Business works the same way.
Business equivalent:
What 4 things must be working for a successful business to run?
@strangj204 @TaraBull808 Haha. Maybe because I’m in the media business and I know the company is with the agency right now giving high fives to each other, and the agency is taking bows.
They expected the outcome. They weren’t surprised by the backlash as I’m sure many believe.
