Taxes.
2
Picture this.
3
Imagine you just had a hard month at work, slaving away flipping burgers at your local McDonald's.
4
You're in bed when you get an email from them.
5
It says you've been paid $2,000, but your bank account only gets $1,456.
6
You scroll down the stub.
7
Federal income tax, state tax, social security, Medicare.
8
This is the modern ritual of giving away a chunk of your money to invisible forces, and they expect you to say thank you.
9
Here's the deal.
10
Taxes are the cost of civilization.
11
You pay, the government builds roads, funds schools, makes sure your favorite taco truck isn't infested with rats, and sends billion dollar missiles to places you've never been.
12
But there are different types of taxes.
13
Income tax, which hits the money you make.
14
Sales tax, which hits the money you spend.
15
Capital gains tax, which hits the money your investments made while you were asleep.
16
The government takes a little bit of every dollar.
17
Nearly everyone also pays social security tax and medicare tax.
18
Basically, social security tax is like the government forcing you to save for your retirement.
19
They force you to save money now, and you get it paid back to you, over time when you retire.
20
Medicare, however, is a health insurance tax that goes to supporting older people, or people with serious health issues.
21
Now comes filing your taxes?
22
Oh boy.
23
The government knows how much you owe, but it makes you guess.
24
How cool.
25
If you're right, no worries.
26
But if you're wrong, you're cooked.
27
When it comes to actually paying taxes, some people pay every few months.
28
Some people pay yearly.
29
And then there's those people that don't pay at all and end up in documentaries.
30
I get that taxes are annoying, but it's not all bad.
31
Countries with higher tax rates generally have a higher quality of life all round.
32
Banks.
33
So, you walk into a bank, hand the cashier your money, they count it, smile, and tell you it will be added to your account.
34
You walk out and think, great, now it's sitting in a vault somewhere, being guarded by a dragon.
35
But in reality, that money's already gone.
36
Most people think of banks like a big safe with only one job, guarding people's money.
37
But in reality, they are just a middleman, or a matchmaker for financial transactions.
38
When you deposited that $1,000, the bank took $900 of it and gave it to someone who wants to buy a jet ski.
39
That system is called fractional reserve banking, which basically relies on the idea that they only actually need to keep a fraction of the money on hand,
40
because not everyone is going to show up at the same time asking to withdraw 100% of their account.
41
That is, unless it's 2008, of course, when people lined up to withdraw the entirety of their account, which caused the entire system to crumble.
42
Banks make money by lending your money at a higher interest rate than they are giving you.
43
That's really it.
44
You're the supply of money, and the person borrowing is the demand.
45
The banks entice you to deposit your money because of a few reasons.
46
It's much easier and more convenient to spend on a card
47
or transfer than carrying around cash all the time They are
48
literally paying you to hold your money with them in the
49
form of interest It is much safer to keep your money
50
in a bank than in a shoebox in your room in
51
the US most banks are insured up to $250,000 per person meaning no matter what the government assures you
52
that your money up to 250k is safe Interest imagine you borrow a thousand dollars you have to pay back $1,280.
53
Why?
54
Because of interest.
55
Interest is money's way of charging rent to exist in someone else's hands.
56
When you borrow, interest is the price tag for using someone else's cash.
57
When you lend or save, interest is the reward for being patient and boring.
58
There are two main types.
59
Simple interest is like, here's a flat fee, thanks for playing.
60
Compound interest is, every dollar I gave you now has clones, and they also want rent.
61
Let's say you owe 20% interest on a credit card.
62
You miss a payment.
63
Now your interest is earning interest.
64
Soon, your $12 burrito turns into a $50 regret.
65
On the flip side, investing at 7% annual compound interest?
66
your money duplicating itself like a cheat code. $100 becomes $200, then $400, then one day you wake up and you're old, rich and a little smug about it.
67
This is why interest is the silent engine behind both wealth and debt.
68
In loans, it's the slow burn that turns small mistakes into financial fires.
69
In investments, it's the time bomb that turns small gains into massive wins.
70
So what's the hack?
71
If you're paying interest, kill it fast.
72
If you're earning interest, let it sit, feed it, and give it time.
73
Interest is either your worst enemy or your best unpaid employee.
74
The choice is in who's collecting it.
75
Inflation.
76
Okay, so you bought a bag of chips.
77
Open it up and it looks like it's already been half eaten.
78
You check what you paid, 30% higher than last time.
79
Then you realize you've just been hit by inflation.
80
Inflation is what happens when money slowly gets less valuable over time.
81
Not overnight, not with fireworks, just a slow erosion.
82
Your $5 bill?
83
Still technically $5, but it buys less instant noodles, less gas, and doesn't actually have as much value as it did before.
84
So what actually causes it?
85
Sometimes people just have too much money.
86
Everyone's got cash and they all want to spend it on the same stuff.
87
Let's say 2,000 people want this $500 TV, but the business only has 1,000 TVs for sale.
88
So the business goes, oh, everyone wants this TV?
89
That'll be $800 now.
90
Sometimes it's supply chains with hiccups or problems, making the cost of producing a good or service more expensive, meaning the cost of that good or service must rise.
91
Or sometimes, just cause.
92
Expectations can cause inflation.
93
If people think prices are rising, they'll spend more now, driving prices up faster.
94
It's a self-fulfilling economic prophecy.
95
A little inflation is normal, even good.
96
2% a year?
97
That's fine, predictable.
98
But if it spikes, savings die, wages lag.
99
The government tries to fight inflation when this occurs, by raising interest rates.
100
When the government raises interest rates, people are paying more interest, or it's more expensive to get a loan, meaning they have less money to spend on things like TVs.
101
This causes a reduction in the amount of spending, pretty much cooling off the economy.
102
Recessions.
103
A recession is when the economy decreases for at least two quarters, or six months in simple terms.
104
One day you're fine, you've got a job, bills are paid, you might even be planning a trip with the family.
105
But suddenly there's layoffs, the stock markets only going down.
106
In a recession, jobs vanish, companies cut costs, and everyone saves their money for necessities instead of buying things they don't need.
107
Why does a recession happen?
108
It could be a range of things.
109
It could be high interest rates, making borrowing too expensive.
110
It could be a global crisis.
111
War, pandemic, rogue container ship.
112
It could just be the economic cycle doing what it does best.
113
Boom, peak, bust, reset.
114
Think of the economy as a party.
115
In the boom phase, everyone's dancing, drinks are flowing.
116
But eventually, the lights flicker.
117
Reality hits.
118
Someone checks their bank account.
119
And suddenly, the DJ's playing sad, lo-fi beats about corporate downsizing.
120
Recessions aren't forever.
121
They're resets.
122
Painful ones.
123
Governments might lower interest rates, send out stimulus, or just hope people start buying overpriced coffee again.
124
Eventually, spending returns.
125
Businesses rebuild.
126
Growth resumes.
127
But not without scars.
128
Credit scores.
129
A credit score is a shadowy algorithm that knows your name, your past, and how many times you paid your credit card late in college.
130
A three-digit number that decides whether you get a house, a car, or a soul-crushing 27% interest rate on your new TV.
131
This number isn't about wealth.
132
It's about trust.
133
Lenders want to know, if I give this person money, will they actually pay me back?
134
The score has a range from 300 to 850.
135
Below 580, you're a walking red flag.
136
Over 750, you're sparkling with adult credibility.
137
Most people?
138
Stuck somewhere between 640 and 790.
139
How is a credit score calculated?
140
Payment history.
141
Do you pay on time?
142
This is the big one.
143
Credit utilization.
144
How much credit are you using versus how much you could?
145
Credit age.
146
How long you've had accounts?
147
Credit mix.
148
Cards, loans, mortgages, variety helps.
149
New credit.
150
Too many recent applications?
151
All of these things are the ways it is calculated.
152
But to actually increase your score, you have to make the required payments on each of your loans before you enter the late period.
153
If you enter the late period, your score decreases.
154
Your credit score is like a pet dog.
155
Ignore it, and it poops all over your life.
156
Take care of it, and someday it might help you buy a house.
157
It's not about being good with money.
158
It's about looking good to lenders.
159
You can have zero debt and still have a trash score if you don't have a credit history.
160
So yes, the game is rigged.
161
But if you learn the rules, you can rig it back.
162
Currency, or money.
163
The weird part about currency and or money is that it's actually not real.
164
Humans have developed money in order to make the world better.
165
Money makes trading easier, makes it easier to build systems and to organize society.
166
In saying that, there is no more legitimacy between a dollar bill and a Bitcoin.
167
People believe a dollar bill has more legitimacy.
168
And maybe it does, for now.
169
But only because people believe it does.
170
The same can be said for a dollar bill, and a stick.
171
The only reason a dollar bill can buy something, and a stick cannot, is the fact that we as a society have agreed that a dollar bill is worth something, while a stick is not.
172
So how does money actually work?
173
Well, the government prints it, the central banks regulate it, and everyday people trade it in exchange for goods and or services.
174
The reason the banks have to regulate it is because if the government prints too much, then inflation kicks in and everyone's money becomes monopoly money.
175
If the banks make it so there is too little money, no one can afford to live.
176
Currency, or money, is a social construct built on a shared belief and trust.
177
Investing.
178
So you know what inflation is now, and the best way to combat inflation so your money doesn't become less valuable, is investing.
179
Investing is what happens when your money stops sitting around and starts working for you.
180
Instead of trading your time for money, you're trading money for more money.
181
The problem is there is risk involved.
182
What What can you actually buy?
183
Tiny ownership slices of companies.
184
If the company grows, your slice becomes more valuable.
185
Basically, you loan money to a government or company and they pay you back with interest.
186
Collections of stocks and bonds so you don't have to play financial games one by one.
187
Real estate.
188
Property you hope someone else pays to live in.
189
Forever.
190
Of course, there are other things, but they are considered the main ones.
191
Investing isn't about being lucky.
192
It's about being early, diversified, and patient.
193
wealthy people didn't win the lottery.
194
They just gave compound growth 30 years to do its thing.
195
And yes, investing comes with risk.
196
Markets go up, markets go down.
197
But the real danger isn't losing money.
198
It's never investing and watching inflation quietly steal your future.
199
Value.
200
This one is more complex, but everyone should understand it.
201
Imagine you pick up a rock.
202
It's just a rock.
203
Now imagine that rock is shiny and yellow.
204
That's gold.
205
It's rarer than an average rock, so there's a higher value placed on it.
206
Gold is not actually worth more than the average rock, it's just worth more to humans because we place a higher value on it.
207
Understanding this is what allows people to become rich.
208
If you provide a lot of value, you will earn a lot of money.
209
Steve Jobs created the iPhone you're most likely watching this on right now.
210
He created something with a large amount of value, so millions of people gave him thousands of dollars for that bit of value.
211
It's the same reason that doctors and lawyers earn so much money.
212
The value they provide is large, and people are willing to pay a large amount of money for their service.
213
Value is the same reason Gucci or Louis Vuitton can sell the same handbag as Target, but charge 100 times the price.
214
People perceive it as more valuable, so it is.
215
If you can figure out how to create value, even if it's not real value, you can make a lot of money.
216
Time.
217
Time is the most valuable asset in the world.
218
And the best part?
219
Almost everyone starts with a lot of it.
220
You probably have a lot of it left.
221
But no one gets an unlimited supply.
222
Most people work jobs where time is traded directly for money.
223
One hour, one paycheck.
224
Simple math.
225
The top earners have figured out how to make their time worth millions.
226
And the difference isn't magic.
227
It's skills, leverage, and how well you've trained your hours to work for you.
228
But nowhere does time work harder than in investing.
229
There is no greater force in wealth building.
230
Not luck.
231
Not income.
232
Time.
233
Because wealth isn't built in days.
234
It's built in decades.
235
Money that sits quietly in an investment doesn't just grow, it multiplies.
236
Slowly at first, then faster.
237
That's why ordinary people with modest paychecks can retire with seven figures.
238
They didn't beat the system, they used the system.
239
A little money, invested consistently, given enough time, becomes a lot of money.
