In The Money Blueprint, I talk about the top beliefs that keep most people broke.

And one of the most damaging is the idea that rich people are greedy.

Far too many people associate wealth with corruption, selfishness, and exploitation. They see a billionaire on TV and immediately assume they must have stepped on others to get there.

They assume success comes at the expense of someone else. And while, yes, there are some greedy, unethical rich people, there are also greedy, unethical poor people.

Because greed has nothing to do with money and everything to do with character.

If you’re selfish when you’re broke, you’ll be selfish when you’re rich. If you’re generous when you have little, you’ll be generous when you have more.

Money doesn’t change you, it amplifies who you already are.

And here’s the real problem with believing that rich people are greedy, it’s holding you back.

If deep down, you believe that wealth makes people bad, you will subconsciously sabotage your own financial success.

You’ll hesitate to charge what you’re worth. You’ll pass up opportunities to make more money.

You’ll stay stuck in a financial struggle because, without realizing it, you don’t want to become what you’ve been conditioned to hate.

But let me ask you something, who can do more good in the world? The person barely getting by, stressing about bills?

Or the person with more than enough, who can take care of their family, donate, invest, and create opportunities for others?

There is nothing wrong with being rich.

Being broke doesn’t make you virtuous just as having money doesn’t make you evil. And the sooner you let go of this false narrative, the sooner you can actually start building real wealth.

Because at the end of the day, money in the hands of good people makes the world a better place.

And if you’re reading this, I’m guessing you’re one of those good people. So stop blocking your own success with this limiting belief.

It’s time to rewire your mindset, drop the excuses, and go get the wealth you deserve.

The general population has been deceived into believing that if they just work hard enough and save enough money, they will one day be truly free to live the life they’ve always wanted.

It’s one of the biggest lies ever told about financial freedom.

But let me be very clear, you cannot save your way to financial freedom.

The math simply doesn’t work.

No only are Interest rates are a joke, but inflation will eat away at your money every single year.

Even if you manage to save $10,000 a year (which most people can’t), what does that really do for you?

Not as much as you might think.

Unless you’re saving hundreds of thousands per year, saving alone will never make you rich. And even then, you’re still playing a slow, losing game.

The rich don’t get rich by saving their money. They get rich by using the power of leverage.

As I say in The Money Blueprint, leverage is how the wealthy multiply their income without multiplying their workload.

They use other people’s money, other people’s time, and scalable systems to generate wealth at levels the average person can’t even comprehend.

And right now, one of the best ways to get leverage is by starting an online business.

An online business allows you to leverage technology, automation, and digital assets to make money 24 hours a day. Even while you sleep.

You create something once, a digital product, a website, an affiliate system, and it keeps working for you day in and day out.

This is how you break free. Not by clipping coupons. Not by saving pennies.

But by building something that generates income with or without you.

The system is rigged against employees. The path to real wealth is through leverage.

The only question is, will you use it?

If you haven’t noticed, I talk a lot about belief on this blog.

That’s because I know what you believe is ultimately going to determine whether you get filthy rich and change your life, or if you continue to struggle and barely get by for the rest of your life.

As I say in The Money Blueprint, your beliefs are the engine that drive everything.

And if you aren’t where you want to be financially, it’s because of the beliefs you hold about money and success.

With that being said, I want to talk about one of the most toxic beliefs that’s keeping people stuck. And that is the belief that you will never get ahead.

This belief is born out of struggle. Out of constantly feeling like no matter how hard you work, you can’t seem to catch a break.

Out of watching other people succeed while you feel like you’re stuck in the same place. It’s the belief that life is rigged, that the system is against you, and that no matter what you do, you’ll always be behind.

This belief is a trap. Not just because it’s disempowering, but because it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

When you believe you’ll never get ahead, you start acting in ways that guarantee you won’t.

You stop trying. You stop looking for new opportunities. You settle for less because you assume that’s all you’ll ever get.

You make safe, comfortable choices instead of the bold moves that actually change your life.

You see someone making money online and think, That would never work for me. So you don’t even try.

You tell yourself, What’s the point? Nothing ever works out for me. So you never put in the effort long enough to see real results.

So you stay broke and you use that as “proof” that you were right all along.

But here’s the thing, it’s not that you can’t get ahead, it’s that you’ve been living like someone who never will.

Everyone who’s ever built real wealth has faced struggle. The difference between those who make it and those who don’t isn’t luck, talent, or connections.

It’s the fact that they refuse to accept the idea that they’re stuck.

They don’t say, “I’ll never get ahead.” They say, “I’m going to figure this out no matter what.”

And that mindset shift changes everything.

You are right, the system isn’t fair and the odds are probably stacked against you.

But so what?

Complaining about it isn’t going to pay your bills. Waiting for someone to save you isn’t a strategy.

The only way you’ll ever break free is by deciding that you will and sticking to it no matter how long it takes, no matter how many times you fail and no matter how hard it gets.

If you’ve been telling yourself that you’ll never get ahead, it’s time to cut that lie out of your life right now.

Because the only thing keeping you from the next level isn’t the economy, your job, or where you came from.

It’s you.

They want you glued to the news….

And when I say they, I am talking about the media, the government, and the elites who profit off your fear.

They need you anxious, distracted, and obedient. Because if you’re scared, you’ll stay in line.

You’ll keep consuming, keep working, keep complying, and never realize you were born with the power to opt out.

You see, you have the ability to create your own economy.

You are not a victim of the system unless you choose to be.

At this very moment you have access to a weapon more powerful than any politician or stimulus package ever created.

And that weapon is the Internet.

Right now, from your kitchen table, you can start an online business, launch a brand, and sell your knowledge, skills, products, or services to the entire world.

You can create content that prints money while you sleep.

This isn’t a fantasy.

This is a reality that millions of people are now living.

The problem is most people wait.

Wait for the market to recover.

Wait for the “right time.”

Wait for permission.

Meanwhile, the winners are moving and adapting. They’re monetizing their talent and stacking income streams while everyone else is glued to their phones scrolling fear porn.

Understand this, we are living in one of the greatest wealth creation windows in history. More millionaires are being made now than ever before, and not from oil money or real estate.

But from laptops, online offers, content creation, and attention. If you’re not cashing in, it’s not because you can’t, it’s because you won’t.

The economy you live in is not the one on CNN. It’s the one you choose to build.

You can be recession-proof and layoff-proof. But not if you keep thinking like an employee.

Its time to stop consuming and start creating.

Your economy starts with you.

I once heard someone say that POOR stands for “Passing Over Opportunities Repeatedly.”

That line really stuck with me, not just because it was clever, but because it’s true.

Most people aren’t broke because they’re lazy or incapable, they’re broke because they keep overlooking the very opportunities that could change their lives.

So if you’re tired of being poor, the first thing you need to do is stop passing over opportunities.

Right now, one of the greatest opportunities staring you in the face is the ability to make money online.

We’re living in a time where the internet has leveled the playing field. It’s made it possible for anyone, from anywhere, to build real wealth.

You don’t need a fancy degree, a huge investment, or permission from anyone. All you need is a mobile device, an internet connection, and a willingness to learn.

But here’s the crazy part, despite this once in a lifetime opportunity, most people continue to use the internet as nothing more than a distraction.

Instead of building something, they scroll. Instead of learning a new skill, they binge-watch useless YouTube videos.

Instead of taking a chance on themselves, they spend hours watching other people live their dreams.

The same platforms that could set them free have become their digital escape rooms, keeping them stuck in the same financial cycle, day after day.

The truth is, if you’re not using the internet to make money, you’re using it to stay exactly where you are.

That might be a tough pill to swallow, but it’s the kind of truth that can wake you up if you let it.

Whether it’s affiliate marketing, freelancing, selling digital products, or launching a side hustle, the tools are already in your hands.

The question is, are you going to use them, or keep ignoring them?

What you must understand is no opportunity lasts forever. The longer you wait, the more you miss out on.

So if you’re tired of being poor, do something different. Say yes to the opportunity right in front of you.

Learn a skill.

Start a side hustle.

Turn your time online into something that pays you back, instead of something that just wastes your time.

You’ve already spent enough time scrolling. Now it’s time to start building.

Most people go through life clinging to hope like it’s a strategy.

They hope to find a stable job.
They hope their 401(k) survives the next crash.
They hope the economy doesn’t tank.
They hope they don’t get laid off.

But hope is not a financial plan. It’s a fantasy. It’s what people rely on when they’ve given up control and handed over their future to chance.

If you spend your life hoping, you’ll end up just another statistic. Broke, stressed, and dependent on a system that was never built to make you rich.

Hope keeps you passive. It keeps you waiting. And while you wait, inflation eats your savings, layoffs blindside your career, and the cost of living keeps rising.

The wealthy don’t waste time hoping.

They build, they plan, and hey protect themselves by creating income that doesn’t depend on luck, timing, or permission.

They don’t cross their fingers and pray the market stays strong. They create leverage, build assets, and make money work for them.

And right now, it’s never been easier to do just that. You have the internet at your fingertips.

That means you have access to more tools, platforms, and information than any generation before you.

You can build an online business from your bedroom with nothing but a phone and Wi-Fi. You can sell digital products, offer services, build an audience, and monetize what you know.

This is the greatest time in history to get rich. But most people are still stuck hoping for a promotion.

That’s not just sad. It’s inexcusable.

You need to take control of your finances. And that starts with changing how you think.

Stop thinking like a victim of the economy. Start thinking like the architect of your own economy.

The power is in your hands, but only if you stop hoping and start acting.

Most people get the online business game completely wrong.

They dive in, post a couple of times on social media, and expect the sales to come rolling in.

But when the money doesn’t show up in their account right away, they bail, claiming this online business stuff doesn’t work.

The reality, however, is that they didn’t go all in. They didn’t put in the sweat and hustle it takes to make an online business work.

Look, if you’re serious about building an online business that can change your life, you have to get real about what it takes.

Starting an online business is not easy. If you want it to work you have to go all in.

All in means that when it doesn’t work the first week, you’re still pushing the next.

It means showing up every single day, creating content, optimizing your process, learning what works, and scrapping what doesn’t.

Building an online business isn’t some magic button to riches. It’s a real business. And just like any other real business, it requires you to invest your time, energy, and focus.

If you’re not willing to give it everything you’ve got, you’re better off not even starting.

But if you’re ready to go all in, to put in the hours, to learn, to adapt, and to keep pushing even when it’s hard, then check out the Learn Launch Lead Challenge.

Scroll through social media or click on any YouTube video and you’ll see the same pitch on repeat….

“Make money while you sleep.”

Passive income in 30 days.”

“Set it and forget it.”

It’s polished, persuasive, and it’s all one big deception.

Yes, passive income is real.

You absolutely can build an online business that makes money while you sleep.

But not at the start. In the beginning, there is nothing passive about it.

What they don’t tell you is that the “passive” part comes after months, or even years, of relentless work.

The front end is hard. It’s messy and full of uncertainty.

You’ll spend nights building, testing, fixing, launching, and relaunching.

You’ll write, record, design, and edit until your brain hurts.

You’ll question if it’s worth it, because the money won’t show up right away.

But that’s the price you have to pay if you truly want to achieve financial freedom.

You’re building the machine. And machines don’t print cash until they’re built right.

Once the machine is running it can generate income without your direct involvement.

But make no mistake, in the beginning, you will doing everything.

That’s what the gurus won’t say. Because selling shortcuts gets more clicks than telling the truth.

They want you hooked on dopamine, thinking one funnel, one course, one affiliate link will set you free.

They sell the dream, but skip the grind.

And that’s why most people fail. Not because the model doesn’t work, but because they expected ease instead of effort.

Always remember that passive income is earned. You bleed on the front end so you can breathe on the back end.

In other words, you do the work now so the money doesn’t stop later.

Did you know that most people don’t actually fail?

They just quit too soon.

They give up right before everything was about to click. One more day. One more post. One more pitch.

That’s all it would’ve taken, but they walked away.

And they call it failure to make themselves feel better. But the truth is they were too soft to keep going.

The people who win, and when I say win I am talking about getting rich, are the ones who refuse to stop.

It’s not about talent, timing, or how smart you are. It’s about how bad do you want it and how long you’re willing to suffer to get it?

That’s the word nobody wants to hear. But that’s the name of the game. You suffer through the doubt, the silence, the rejection, the embarrassment, the fear.

You keep going when your bank account says stop. You keep showing up when the world ignores you.

You keep pushing when everyone else would’ve walked away. That’s persistence. And persistence is the dividing line between rich and broke.

Most people have zero persistence because they don’t have a strong enough why.

They want more money, but they’re not willing to bleed for it. They say they want success, but the second it gets uncomfortable, they fold.

Their desire isn’t real. It’s just a wish.

The winners, the ones who break through, they’re obsessed. They don’t care how long it takes.

They don’t care how many times they get punched in the face. They’ve already decided they’re going to win.

The outcome is locked in so the timeline is irrelevant.

So if you’re constantly starting and stopping, chasing shiny objects, giving up when results don’t come fast enough, it’s not the strategy that’s broken.

It’s your mindset.

You haven’t made the decision. You’re still playing, testing, and thinking there’s some shortcut that makes success easier.

There isn’t. You either persist, or you lose.

Don’t be the one who gave up one inch before the breakthrough.

Keep going!

The very first thing I talk about in The Money Blueprint is mindset. Because if your mindset isn’t right, you will never reach true financial freedom.

You could have all the right strategies, the best business plan, and even access to opportunities, but if you still think like a broke person, you will stay broke.

Wealth starts in the mind before it ever shows up in your bank account. The difference between the rich and the poor isn’t just money.

It’s how they think, how they see the world, and how they make decisions.

So the question is, which mindset do you have?

Broke People Think in Scarcity. Wealthy People Think in Abundance.

Broke people believe money is limited, that there’s never enough to go around. They see someone else’s success as a threat to their own.

They hold onto every dollar like it’s their last because deep down, they believe making money is hard.

Wealthy people know that money is everywhere. They understand that value creates wealth, and as long as they can provide value, they will never run out of money.

They don’t hoard, they invest, multiply, and create more opportunities.

Broke People Trade Time for Money. Wealthy People Build Assets.

If you’re working hourly or salaried and that’s your only source of income, you’re stuck in the broke mindset.

There are only so many hours in a day, which means there’s a cap on your income. That’s why the wealthy don’t focus on working more, they focus on owning more.

They build assets. They create businesses, invest in real estate, and put their money into things that grow without needing their constant effort.

They understand the power of leverage, using money, people, and systems to multiply their income.

If your money isn’t working for you, you’re working for it, and that’s a losing game.

Broke People Avoid Risk. Wealthy People Manage Risk.

Fear keeps people broke. Fear of failure, fear of losing money, fear of stepping outside their comfort zone.

That’s why most people stay in the same job for years, never starting a business, never investing, never doing anything different.

They play it safe, and safe never leads to wealth.

The rich know that calculated risk is necessary. Every successful entrepreneur has lost money at some point.

Every investor has made a bad decision.

But the difference is, they keep going. They educate themselves, they manage risk instead of avoiding it, and they understand that failure is just part of the process.

Broke People Focus on Saving. Wealthy People Focus on Earning.

Saving is important, but it won’t make you rich. Cutting back on lattes and clipping coupons isn’t going to build generational wealth.

Broke people think the only way to get ahead is by shrinking their expenses. Wealthy people know the real key is to expand their income.

Instead of asking, “How can I save money?” they ask, “How can I make more?”

They focus on increasing their skills, building businesses, and creating income streams. They don’t settle for the same paycheck year after year, they look for ways to scale.

Broke People Let Money Control Them. Wealthy People Control Their Money.

When you have a broke mindset, money dictates your life. You stress about bills, live paycheck to paycheck, and feel like you never have enough.

You let your emotions drive your financial decisions. Spending impulsively when you feel good, and panicking when things get tight.

The rich don’t let money control them. They tell their money where to go. They budget, invest, automate, and make decisions based on logic, not emotions.

They see money as a tool, not a source of stress. And because of that, they never feel powerless when it comes to their finances.

Shifting to a Wealthy Mindset Starts Now

If you’ve recognized some of these broke habits in yourself, that’s a good thing. It means you’re aware, and awareness is the first step to change.

The good news is you can rewire your thinking. You can stop seeing money as a struggle and start seeing it as an opportunity.

Start thinking bigger, stop making decisions based on fear, and learn how to create assets instead of paychecks.

Invest in yourself. Focus on increasing your income, not just saving pennies.

And most importantly, take action.

The only thing standing between you and wealth is your mindset. Change that, and everything else will follow.
