1
I'm going to share with you all the rules of money that you can follow to get rich without talent, luck, or having a freaking trust fund.
2
And once you learn these rules and apply them, you'll finally be able to stack cash.
3
So in this video, I'm going to tell you exactly what these rules are
4
and how I went from broke at 24 to a millionaire at 27
5
and then being worth over a hundred million dollars today.
6
Rule number one, the 4 % rule.
7
To get rich, you need to have a number in mind
8
that if you saved up and you were able to live off of that, you would be able to live off the passive income i know this sounds boring
9
but true rich means freedom freedom means you don't have to
10
work i'm talking safe simple guaranteed no around a dollar amount
11
that you live passively off
12
that once you get there everything else is gravy the four
13
percent rule super simple you take the number you want to
14
make per year let's say it's a hundred thousand dollars
15
and then you just divide it by 0 .04 that'll give you the number you have to save
16
so you can live off of that easily.
17
Sounds crazy and like a lot of money, but it's not because if you invest your money and it compounds and grows and you start early, you can get to that place simply.
18
So now that you've got your number, how much you need to save, how do you actually make that kind of money?
19
Rule number two, master a high income skill.
20
If you already knew how to make that kind of money, you'd be making that kind of money, which means you're going to have to invest in yourself to develop a skill that the world values.
21
That's why it's called high income skill, meaning people are going to pay you a lot of money for your time to do that work.
22
The best part is, is that everybody has access to the same tools.
23
The information's out there.
24
It's just most people pretend like they can't solve this problem.
25
You don't have to spend 200 grand to go to some fancy university to learn any of this.
26
You can do it on your own.
27
So here's how you simplify it.
28
All high income skills can fall into one of four categories.
29
The first M is make means you're a creator, either edit videos, you create websites, you create video scripts, you create things that other people value it sounds
30
so simple but most people never learn how to make a solution they make a piece of solution
31
but not the complete thing the second m is market
32
if you know how to get somebody to pay attention
33
and redirect that focus to buying something people pay you a lot of money to do
34
that for their business to get customers even more important than the next one
35
which everybody talks about which is monetize
36
or sales like the ability to talk to somebody
37
and get them to part with their money incredibly valuable but if you're asking me which one's more valuable marketing or sales.
38
Marketing is more valuable.
39
Sales is just easier to learn.
40
And the final one is manage.
41
People will pay top dollar to have somebody come in and manage a project, manage an outcome, manage a problem for them.
42
So the way I look at it is four components.
43
And you can look up Ikigaya.
44
What do you love?
45
What are you good at?
46
What does the world need?
47
And what can you get paid for?
48
If one of those four seems like a default for you, maybe it's marketing or making or monetizing or managing stuff, the key is mastery.
49
Decide to be the best in the world at it and stick with it for at least a thousand days.
50
Like go all in and find somebody to pay you to do that work.
51
But here's the deal.
52
Even a high income skill won't make you rich if you don't own anything.
53
Which brings us to rule number three, don't work for your money, make your money work for you.
54
This one's gonna be hard for people to understand because the whole world is trying to convince you to do this, which is work for a salary.
55
The only way you're gonna get really rich is to own a part of the business.
56
Wages might feed you, but ownership frees you.
57
See, if the accountant, the lawyer, the doctor goes on vacation, guess what?
58
It's not the cost of the vacation that's the most expensive thing for them.
59
It's not working.
60
The truth is, is those people are highly paid, but they're not rich because they don't have freedom.
61
A business owner creates a machine or an engine that makes money, and they get paid whether they show up to work or not because the machine runs.
62
Owning a piece of a machine is how you get wealthy, but if you wanna get there faster, you need to understand what i'm about to share phase one
63
you have to build cash piles with your high income skills
64
you literally need to learn how to save the more you
65
can save the more resources you'll have to do something with
66
you can't buy into a business you can't invest in your business to increase your equity ownership
67
if you don't have any cash phase two is reinvest in your best asset yourself
68
because you will take you with you to every interaction for the rest of your life
69
and you becoming better meaning you communicating better you persuading other
70
people better you getting other people to support you in your dreams, that investment will pay off dividends way bigger than any other business investment.
71
Phase three is to invest those profits or that cash into assets.
72
That's the ownership side.
73
For most people, the simplest thing to do is buy a low fee index fund, like a Vanguard for the S &P 500, something simple.
74
My son Noah literally has 70 % of his savings in an S &P 500, he's 12 years old.
75
The reason I taught him that is because I showed to him that the money works for him, whether he shows up or not.
76
He could sleep in till 10 a .m and that money in that index fund did some work.
77
So the best investment other than yourself is in your current business.
78
So that's where I would look first.
79
Then you can look at things that you have an unfair advantage around, things that you know better than most.
80
If you're into cryptocurrency and you're like super passionate
81
and you get paid to help people build blockchains and you're like a nerd about that, go all in on crypto sticking in what you know is how you create compound and massive leverage.
82
That's how I've built my company.
83
I'm all software all the time.
84
For 28 years, I learned how to code.
85
I build and exit software companies.
86
I started investing in companies.
87
Now I have a venture studio where I launch a new AI company every month because I understood a long time ago, me sticking in things that I have an unfair advantage of
88
that I can look at deals
89
and assess better than anybody else in the world is gonna give me the returns that are above the market norm.
90
So that's where I invest my free cashflow.
91
And remember, the whole point is to invest into assets and ownership so that you can get to that 4 % rule.
92
Then you don't have to work anymore.
93
That's a beautiful thing where you can now choose what do you wanna do with your days?
94
What does your life mean?
95
What is the work?
96
What do you wanna create?
97
That is the true meaning of being rich.
98
If you don't own anything, you'll be stuck renting forever.
99
But even with your money invested, how do you multiply it even faster to actually get rich?
100
Which brings us to rule number four.
101
We have to use leverage, not labor.
102
Leverage means putting a little bit of effort in and getting a massive result.
103
So there's this guy called Archimedes, which is like a Greek mathematician.
104
He has a quote, he says, give me a lever long enough and I can move the world.
105
That is leverage.
106
This really hit home for me when I was 28 and I moved to San Francisco.
107
I struggled, man.
108
I like literally, my company that finally made me a millionaire also cost me everything in my life.
109
My relationships, my health, my mental sanity.
110
And I almost decided to never start a business again until I met a guy named Naval Ravikant.
111
And talking to him, he's the one that introduced me to these ideas of leverage.
112
Every entrepreneur that masters these four areas have unlimited potential of creating in this world without creating massive pain in their life.
113
If you master these four skills of leverage, then you can be as rich as you wanna be.
114
So the first C is code.
115
Think about software, think about automation, think about AI today.
116
If you can learn how to use technology to get things done, set it up, workflows, automation, you have massive amounts of leverage.
117
A little bit of work today means that it gets done forever.
118
The second is content.
119
When I look at a playbook, a checklist, that's a piece of content, but that content can create a recipe that can have somebody else do something for you a thousand times,
120
a million times without taking any more of your time, right?
121
When I look at the videos that I create here, I can use this video right here to share with all the young men
122
that I mentor in my King's Club program so that they can learn how to get rich.
123
I shoot this video once and it can be seen by 10 million people.
124
massive amounts of leverage the third is capital
125
and capital is about how do i use my money to create more money
126
so if you think about it if i have money
127
and i can run ads i can hire people i can invest
128
that into opportunities it's going to generate returns
129
and i can have my capital work for me i can get massive amounts of leverage
130
and the fourth is collaboration it's how do you work with
131
other people you know people want to see good people win
132
people want to help people where they can make money with them
133
so learning how to partner learning how to recruit learning how to manage people the emotional intelligence of other humans
134
that skill creates massive amounts of leverage think about like all these luminary people like gandhi
135
and oprah and the rock even or ronaldo
136
if you're a soccer fan those people
137
because they understand how to communicate can get things done in the world
138
that nobody else can that's leverage it's so cool
139
because leverage is like a volume knob for your skills
140
if you want to get more done then you just have to like learn how to ramp up your skill
141
and put the volume up the more volume you go up that's the effort
142
that goes down the bigger the outcome on the other side of
143
that is going to be and then
144
when it comes to hard work the hard work adds
145
but leverage multiply see that's why i call them multipliers is
146
that you can work as hard as you want the guy that's changing a roof
147
or digging a hole in the ground he's working hard
148
if he understands how to get leveraged he's going to get more done your effort stops looking like adding
149
and you start multiplying your outcomes and in fact the biggest leverage for most people, and this is true for me, is hiring an executive assistant.
150
Somebody that can buy back 10, 15, 20 hours of your week doing mundane tasks, things that don't add value to your work, don't add your skill set,
151
don't teach you how to invest your money.
152
Most people struggle with understanding what to give them.
153
So if you want access to my internal EA playbook that I use, it's like 27 pages of all the best things over 15 years of perfecting this.
154
Just click the link in the description.
155
I'll send you a copy over for free.
156
But multiplication is useless if no one sees you.
157
That's why we have to master rule number five.
158
We have to get distribution over creation.
159
Having a great offer, something to sell without an audience is just like having a secret that nobody knows about.
160
You have to build the distribution engine.
161
You don't want to be the world's biggest kept secret.
162
You want everybody to know about you.
163
Everybody have the opportunity to buy your high income skill.
164
One of my portfolio companies at Martell Ventures is called precision
165
they have one of the best products in the world
166
that helps a business understand their numbers and give them very tactical strategies using ai
167
based on the best practices in the benchmarks to fix the business.
168
But without a distribution engine that we built together, no one would know that.
169
They wouldn't have any customers.
170
So just because you have the best product, it still needs a way to get distribution.
171
So here's how you can build your distribution plan today.
172
First, we have to pick one channel.
173
Everyone gets held up because they're trying to pick the right thing.
174
I've learned it's not about picking the right one.
175
It's about picking one and making it right.
176
Everyone you know that's one at the highest level, picked one.
177
Joe Rogan, podcast.
178
Somebody else, LinkedIn.
179
For me, Instagram.
180
Those are my platforms.
181
Those are the places where I decided to go all in and be masterful and do that.
182
And then with the resources, I could do other things.
183
So you gotta pick one.
184
The second is we have to make sure you post daily.
185
Consistency becomes a foundation for growth.
186
The thing that holds people back from getting an audience or building distribution is they're just not consistent.
187
And I'm gonna break your heart if you don't wanna hear this, but I'm talking about for the rest of your life.
188
If you lead with free value, giving away your best stuff.
189
I'm talking the best stuff because information should be free.
190
Implementation is paid.
191
You get somebody a result in advance, they will trust you and they will buy from you.
192
If you can solve their small problems, they're gonna wanna pay you to solve their big problems.
193
The third is once you have that guarantee, build your list, your own media, meaning your email, your SMS.
194
That's the difference between owned versus earned.
195
Social media is great because you're using other people's platform, their audience to build your awareness, your distribution, but you don't own that.
196
You can get your account canceled tomorrow and all of it goes away.
197
I like to take that attention and move it to my email, move it to SMS.
198
You've probably seen me give out my text number.
199
You've probably seen my email address to opt in.
200
That way I can build a personal relationship with the audience where the platform can't take that away from me.
201
And finally, number four, and last but definitely not least, you have to integrate your promotion into the content.
202
Meaning, I need you to figure out what is the skill that you wanna sell?
203
What is the service you wanna sell?
204
And integrate it into the value of your content.
205
That feels great.
206
That means that what you do and what you teach and the value you give and what you sell is aligned.
207
Think about Mr. Beast.
208
He sells chocolate bars.
209
You're watching a Mr. Beast video
210
and then he has an integrated play into the chocolate bar
211
that usually is on the theme of the video that you're watching.
212
It's not like he's like, hey, eat my chocolate bars.
213
He's saying, and now they've got these chocolate bars
214
that they can eat while they're stuck in this fricking hole for the next 60 days.
215
And that way there's a promotion on the product that feels integrated into the content.
216
For example, if you're teaching somebody like how to write great copy in an email or how to do a sales call, while you're teaching them, you can just say, and for example, most people get stuck with these problems.
217
If you want my help to overcome that issue, just message me.
218
You literally go find me on Instagram and you'll watch me do this all the time.
219
Most people just think it's content, but it's integrated into my value.
220
Virality is luck, but distribution is a system.
221
This is important.
222
Please promise me you won't nuke your progress by trying to flex at every step them.
223
Rule number six is don't finance your flex.
224
Debt for assets, that's called leverage.
225
Debt for lifestyle, that's a hole you'll never get out of.
226
One of my mentors a long time ago, he said to me, making money is easy, keeping it is hard.
227
If you make a million dollars a year, but you spend a million point one dollars a year, you're always going to be backwards.
228
Learning how to use your cash flow from your assets, finance your flexing is the key.
229
And I get it.
230
Everybody's like, yeah, but you're only young once i'm only talking about three to five years
231
if you can just chill the out for a few years you can get it today versus wishing
232
when you're 50 or 60 that you had the freedom
233
and trust me when i was in my 20s i was making a lot of money
234
and i decided to fly my little brother to the west coast
235
and go on a snowboard trip for two weeks where i
236
spent almost sixteen thousand dollars i did everything i wanted
237
and then i realized oh you didn't pay the taxes on
238
that now to spend the next few months paying off the taxes
239
because i didn't even know how to manage my money
240
that lesson at 20 years old taught me how to set up my life
241
so i never had to work ever again
242
so remember there's only two kinds of debt there's good debt
243
which i'm a fan of i'm not like an anti -debt like some finance people financing
244
that makes cash things like financing inventory
245
that you know you can sell investing in ads equipment real estate debt to buy assets
246
or debt to invest in your business to generate more returns or buy a bigger piece of your business good debt, and then bad debt.
247
I'm talking debt to finance toys or status or your vacation.
248
Essentially, that's cash on fire.
249
The money can't work for you anymore.
250
Here's the rule that I live by.
251
If it doesn't pay you back, make you money, then essentially you're selling yourself.
252
You're the product.
253
When you buy something, you're actually spending the time it took you to make the money to buy that thing.
254
Rich people buy assets, broke people buy the applause.
255
All right, if you made it this far freaking awesome you're on your way to get rich
256
and the cool part is you don't need talent you don't need luck
257
or any of that other shit
258
but now it's the time to make some real bets so rule number seven use the money as a tool
259
not the goal the goal is freedom never forget
260
that money's not meant to be hoarded money is meant to be used
261
when i was growing up i had one of my best friend's dad he owned a food truck
262
and that guy worked literally 60 hours a week all the time in his food truck to make cash
263
and all the extra cash he saved it in his home
264
he hoarded it he put it in the wall he didn't
265
trust the banks it was kind of wild to figure this out and then there was a fire
266
watching the reaction of his family lose 30 years of everything they've ever done
267
because he didn't understand how to take the money to invest
268
in the skill meant he lost it all i have a problem
269
when people think money's evil money doesn't solve problems money amplifies who you are
270
if you are a great person you'll have more greatness in your life
271
if you're an asshole and you're an evil person guess what
272
that more money is just going to amplify who you are there's only one really important rule.
273
Freedom isn't found in your bank account.
274
It's found in your calendar.
275
The goal is to use money to buy back your time.
276
That's leverage so that you can spend that time doing the things you love.
277
Hopefully you fall in love with becoming better
278
because God's not going to reward somebody to go get free
279
and make a lot of money to go hang out on the beach because he created you to go be a creator, go do stuff in the world.
280
If your whole plan is to get free, to chill out and do nothing, don't be surprised if that opportunity never comes to you.
281
That's why I spend so much money on hiring people to support my life.
282
Not only does it buy back my time, having Anne, my executive assistant, Betty, my house manager, Sam, my creative director, Todd, who's my CEO, Roddy, who's the CEO, essentially team Martel.
283
It's I get to invest in those people, help those people create their dreams, create a bigger future for all of us to win it.
284
That to me is the whole point about having money, is creating richness, not only in my life, but in other people's lives.
285
And by the way, speaking to my team member, especially my executive assistant, my admin team.
286
If you want my playbook, just click the link below and I'll send it to you.
287
This is literally 15 years perfected into the tightest, simplest format for my structure, my templates, my North Star metrics.
288
It's all there for you.
289
Just click the link in the description below.
290
Achieving freedom is the goal, but the real reward is actually not the money.
291
It's who you get to become in the process.
292
You take all of this, everything I've built, all my companies away from me, I'm good because I became that person.
293
I've got the skills.
294
I know how to do it.
295
I could do it in a third of the time.
296
Starting from scratch, knowing what I know, not making the same mistakes, boom, watch me.
297
You could literally take people like an Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, plop them in the center of a country, come back in five years,
298
and you would find a person that's dominating in that country.
299
It's just who they are.
300
This process of wanting to be rich is awesome.
301
I want that for you.
302
But what I'm excited about is who you get to become in the process.
303
Then you get to this really cool place where the work feels like play.
304
When you wake up and you feel like, I can't believe this is my job, this is how I create, this is what I'm doing, and it feels so fun, that's when you know you become rich and you need talent,
305
trust fund, education, none of that.
306

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
