EP014: How To Wrangle Your Filthy Lucre
Even veteran biz owners and experience-hardened writers have a weird relationship with money. Especially when you come across a lot of it, suddenly.
It’s critical for your career to have a good foundation of values, an ethical philosophy of life, and lots of support from friends, family and network. Yet it’s even MORE important for you to understand how money can completely obliterate everything good in your life, regardless of whether it’s going out or coming in.
The guys dive in deep, and cover everything they’ve learned about earning, managing, bungling, scoring and losing money in their storied careers. Nobody understands this stuff intuitively, cuz money is a concept... yeah, a concept that pays your bills but also keeps you up at night and ruins friendships and creates opportunities the “poor” version of you will only dream about.
Forget Econ 101 – here’s the complete Financial Badass Wizardry course, in one brief show. From the mysterious forces haunting every dollar bill you encounter and the creative freedom of Fuck You Money... through the inverted logic of Bankruptcy Wisdom and Systematic Wealth Building (works no matter how bone-headed you are about cash right now)... and into the class warfare behind shame at being working class and the leverage of knowing why money doesn’t solve most problems (despite being very good at solving the core problems you encounter while building a fortune).
Lots more, and you’ve probably never heard half of it before. The rich can be miserable, the broke can be joyous, the clueless can strike a bonanza, and the sociopaths can (as usual) muck up the best thing going if you don’t stop them.
Get hip. Then go get rich and happy...
