hello alexers and welcome back to a very personal sunday motivational video growing up poor you look up to those with money because you see them as free from the chains of poverty after figuring out the game of money it took roughly eight years for us to go from zero to our first million because of our background you get a very different perspective on money than those who grew up with it it took us becoming multi-millionaires to see how the world around you changes in behavior depending on your perceived wealth and since there's no other resources online talking about this today we're sharing what we learned firsthand no sponsors just you and us welcome to URL_TOKEN the place where future billionaires come to get inspired if you're not subscribed yet you're missing out here are NUMBER_TOKEN things having money teaches you about other people hope it helps number one money validates you in their eyes in the collective mindset money shows ability money pre-qualifies you when you enter a room the rich will allow you to sit at the table because there's a common understanding that everyone around is able to pull their own weight the poor see you as all-competent and all-knowing just because you have money your words carry more value and they tend to agree with you more even if you're speaking outside of your area of expertise he's rich so he must know what he's talking about this is a dangerous slope to navigate stay humble and focus on where your ability can move the needle forward for everyone involved number two when you have money you see how high the stakes are for people around you when you have money you get to sit down behind the curtain you see how other rich people move how they act what kinds of deals they make and how they're able to connect the dots the truth is the rich are constantly stressed out as they're always working on something new it's exciting to them but it requires focus because it's not just their wealth at stake it's also all of people relying on the project to work out when you have a front row seat to both worlds several distinctions become clear between the rich and the poor the rich are always focused on bigger and bigger deals and new ideas the poor on the other hand have little at stake for them there's nothing new happening they always complain about the same things the job the bills the neighbors the government it's the same narrative over and over again number three everybody has a price even you we're all thinking we can't be bought but the truth is even with money you still choose how you wish to trade your time and what the exchange rate for that transaction is we all have NUMBER_TOKEN hours in a day but our time isn't valued the same when you get really good at something people are willing to pay you for what your time is worth a couple of weeks ago an investment fund were on the board of offered us a multi-seven-figure deal to join the fund full-time we worked so hard to buy ourselves the freedom to do anything we want in life but it honestly kept us up at night thinking about it it's fascinating how you think you don't have a price but if the offer is on the table and it's high enough you're considering it it was a very revealing experience for us we respectfully declined because we have a long way to go with alux and our vision for the future we are here for the long haul elixir so make sure you like this video and subscribe to our channel because we've got
