Episode notes
Inflation Makes Today's Goals Too Small
- A million dollars today will buy far less in 50 years due to inflation and money supply growth. Alex Hormozi shows one 50-year example where $1 becomes $6 of today's purchasing power loss.
Prioritize Increasing Your Income
- Increase your income rather than only cutting spending because upside is unlimited. Use extra earnings to invest so compounding multiplies those gains over decades.
Cut Luxuries And Avoid Leases
- Stop spending on depreciating luxuries and avoid recurring leases that steal future compounding power. Treat small modern splurges like large future costs when evaluating purchases.
