Episode notes

The traditional education system was designed to prepare people for factory jobs, focusing on work rather than critical thinking. The knowledge to succeed in today's world is readily available on platforms like YouTube, but people make excuses instead of taking advantage of it. It is crucial for parents to improve financial education, yet many lack this knowledge themselves, considering their homes assets instead of liabilities due to a lack of financial literacy.
