The Power of Leverage in Wealth Creation
Leverage plays a crucial role in wealth creation. Traditional forms of leverage such as capital and labor have been used by wealthy individuals like Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller. However, in the digital age, leverage has taken on new forms with code and media.
