9 Subtle Signs You’re Building REAL Wealth

Welcome to another thought-provoking episode of the Building Your Money Machine Show! Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on what REAL wealth looks like. If you’ve ever found yourself scrolling through Instagram, dazzled by flashy cars, luxury homes, and rooftop cocktails—this is your wake-up call. Because let’s be honest: most of what people call “success” online is just chaos with a fresh coat of paint.

In this episode, I break down the nine subtle signs that reveal whether you’re quietly building genuine, lasting wealth—or just getting sucked into the game of chasing shiny objects. After more than three decades as a CPA, entrepreneur, and money mentor, I’ve seen both sides: those who went broke chasing the flex, and others who built millions living lives you’d drive right past without ever noticing.

We’ll dig into the mindsets, and strategies that won’t impress your neighbors, but WILL set you free. You’ll learn why earning more money doesn’t make you free—it’s about creating a money machine that works harder for you than you ever did for it. It’s subtle. It’s boring. And it’s the path to real freedom.

IN TODAY'S EPISODE, I DISCUSS:

• Why focusing on your lifestyle vision—not just a big bank account—changes your entire wealth strategy
• How investing in your own financial knowledge is the ultimate ROI
• Building an emergency peace-of-mind fund to protect yourself from life’s financial surprises
• Tracking your net worth—not just your income
• Beating lifestyle creep
• Paying attention to taxes and optimizing your strategies so your wealth isn’t quietly drained
