Stop Chasing Income and Start Building Real Wealth | Chris Camillo

0:00Hi, my name is Lewis Hous, and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show. This is the biggest life hack. Nothing comes close. Literally nothing comes remotely close to this life hack. Forget about everything else in life, and just start investing. Period, you're done, and guess what? You don't have to spend any time if you don't want to. You can go do all your hobbies, do all of your stuff, just start aggressively investing, and you do not have to sweat the next 30, 40 years, trying to restart yourself, your career over and over and over again, do inside hustles and lots of starts and stops and a lot of depression. And then what I think I see a lot of, because you know, my entire life is analyzing social media now for trends, right? That's what I do for my investing. And it's just a crap load of complaining from this generation, which I get it.

1:05I get it. If you don't know this life hack, I totally understand the frustration. You can't make enough money to live the life you want to live, and you see absolutely no like light at the end of the tunnel in terms of how you can make it happen. That is a really depressing place to be, and it's going to cause you to get out and start complaining. And you see other people living this rich life or posting like they have a rich life, whether they have it or not, seeming like they're happy with this lifestyle, you know, taking trips and ventures and flying private or whatever it is. And see that's the issue, because everyone keeps talking about the income gap. Like we've heard so much about the income gap, the last decade, decade and a half, how are we going to solve the income gap? You're not going to solve the income gap. It's not happening. You can make really small dense in the income gap

2:06if you want to, but it's a lost cause. So just stop. Okay, well, just stop. Now, the wealth gap, that's a solvable problem. That is 100% a solvable problem. How do we solve it? Getting the entire world to invest. Every single person that you're trying to solve the income gap for, just stop and just focus on the wealth gap. Instead of trying to figure out how to make that person earn three times more than they're earning, it's not going to happen. Then make small change, you know, try to help them still to maximize their career. That should all still happen. But teach them how to invest. But it's not even teaching. Just convince them. You say, like, I even hate that I just have to say the word teaching. You don't have to learn. You just have to be convinced. You just have to be convinced. And every single person has money

3:07to invest. Period. Now, I know people are going to hear me say that. And it's going to like, result in a stream of angry comments because they're like, this guy is just completely out of touch. And no, I don't have money to invest. Yes, you do. You don't have money to invest because you're thinking about every dollar as a dollar. But like, this is a big part of what I wrote about in my book a long time ago, when I turned 20,000 into two million and three years, and I'm not saying that people can do that, that was rare. But absolutely, you could turn every dollar to $100 over a much longer period of time as an investor, just what compounding. And when you realize that, once you believe that, you'll start to think of every dollar as $100, right? And so when you start to think of every dollar in your life as $100, it changes everything. So I don't care who

4:08you are. There is a point to which you are not making trade-offs. You're not clipping coupons. You might clip $2 coupons, but you're not going to clip a 10 cent coupon. Well, all of a sudden, when everything's a hundred X, you're clipping 10 cent coupons, you're clipping 50 cent coupons. You are, you know, I don't know. You're just doing all kinds of things differently in your life. You know, maybe you're mowing your yard now, maybe you're making your coffee at home instead of going to Starbucks. All the things that weren't quite worth trading off or all the sudden worth making the trade-off for. Here's the difference. That money that you save by doing all of those things, right? All goes into your investment account for risk assets, right? And so believe me, when you start thinking of every $1, $100, and it will be $100 at some point, you start finding money in your life. I don't care what it is. I don't care. There are people on YouTube. They're actually insane with how to find money, right? Doing all these crazy things. And you're like,

5:13that is just way too much of a hassle to make an extra $3 or $4. But for $300, I'm doing it. And it is $300. I have a brand new book called Make Money Easy.
