What else?
1. They track net worth
You need to need to think of everything from a net-worth perspective. To me, it’s the most important statistic that defines wealth.
This month our net worth increased over 63K, not the best but every month it gets a bit easier.
2. They continually learn
Wealthy people always continue learning. Knowledge is always the best investment because you will continually reap the rewards. When you begin to go down this path of self-improvement it will impact your ROI in every avenue of life.
3. They take calculated risks
Rule No.1: Never lose money
Rule No.2: Never forget rule No.1
If you want to get ahead you need to be able to mitigate and assess risk. Regardless of what anyone says you want to avoid losing money (especially when young).
4. They automatically invest
Less mental real-estate is the goal.
Have investments set to automatic. Have money taken out of your paycheck directly. When payday comes your money is automatically put to work.
Set it up properly and you will never think about it.
5. They help others succeed
Broke people waste time/energy bringing others down. They have a "crab in the barrel" mentality.
They lack a true abundance mindset because they only see limited options for themselves.
Real Gs want to see others win.
6. Understand how taxes work
Understanding how taxes work is the biggest lever you can pull to get to financial freedom.
There is a reason it is complicated.
(it's to keep people rich)
7. Understand assets vs liability
Poor people buy liabilities and then don’t understand why their stuff keeps them poor.
“Rich people acquire assets. Poor people acquire liabilities." - Robert Kiyosaki
Want to be rich? Spend money on assets

Here's everything I know about building an online biz:
1. Building an audience an online audience is more valuable than an Ivy League degree

3. You need to move fast (and take action)
4. Make as many friends as possible
5. Focus on making money from day one
6. Hit publish every SINGLE DAY
7. Build on as many platforms as possible
8. Start an email list
9. Pay attention to the 80/20 rule - only give attention to things that bring you results. Move more in that direction. This is one of the best biz lessons I've ever learned.
Understand that your parents are only human. And we all make mistakes. Forgive past trauma with your parents and take full responsibility for your future actions.
Stop chasing titles
The internet taught me one thing - qualifications don't matter. This is because, on a worldwide stage, people with real skills are ultimately rewarded.
