Tweetable Quotes
“At the time, I was a member of Rotary International. And so I just went to them with this idea. I said, ‘I have an idea for a service project. What if I go to local high schools and I teach young adults about money before they graduate, and get in the real world, and start making all the mistakes that my friends and I were making.’ And they loved the idea and that’s how it began.” (03:45)
“Ultimately, what I know about myself now is I was always meant to be an entrepreneur. I was always meant to work for myself. And I always wanted to get to that kind of life, but I didn’t really know how to do it.” (10:49)
“I do think that it’s a privilege to tune out what the world is telling us. And anyone can do it; this is free. It’s your choice.” (19:21)
“Building wealth is twenty percent strategy and eighty percent mindset.” (20:51)
“The definition of financial independence is the point when the income that you receive from sources other than a job can pay for your expenses.” (27:28)
“Really, when you think about money, it is just this intangible thing that we are creating more of every day. The government is printing more of it every single day. We’ve got new cryptocurrency coins all the time. When you really start to think about money, it truly is infinite and you can call more of it into your life.” (35:17)
“That feeling of accomplishing the pillars of wealth and then getting really good at defaulting to healthier habits just takes practice. There’s no such thing as perfection when it comes to money. It’s just about doing your best. And every day is an opportunity to practice.” (46:08)
