#431 Are you learning the right way? In Module 1: Lesson 3 of the Build My Money Machine program, host Justin Williams pulls back the curtain on the origins of our modern education system — and how it was never designed to produce entrepreneurs!

More importantly, he shows how breaking free from this conditioning and learning through action is the key to building real wealth today. If you’re tired of waiting for permission to pursue your goals, this is your wake-up call! (Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lesson 1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lesson 2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!)
