Protecting your capital is much more important than making money. Basically because if you lose your capital, making money is much harder. ''Missing the train'' vs. ''losing your money''. There are a lot of trains, but if your money is gone, it's over.

My father is a decamillionaire and had 4 children. Only one of us managed to not become a millionaire, the rest of us did it independent of inheritance by age 35 because of what our father drilled into us about finances. He lives in a modest 1400ft house and drives an average $30k car. I’ve always heard the 70% stat about second generation and it always surprised me. My father always prioritized child rearing over making money but the money came regardless. I think that is a large factor. The biggest contributor to wealth building is education and knowledge of personal finance. Mathematically almost anyone in the US can become a millionaire. Unfortunately many are simply never taught how or even worse told that the system is against them and they can never succeed so why even try.

I'd be interested in seeing the percentages of people in these categories for billionaires, rather than millionaires. I'd imagine most billionaires fall into one of the first 3 categories (inheritance, virtuoso, risk-taker). Most are likely entrepreneurs/founders of highly successful companies. You can't become a billionaire just by saving/investing a regular paycheck.

I also think it's just as important for our kids/grandkids to understand economic downturns such as losses in a 401k/IRA, mutual funds, bonds, and stock market. Preparing as developing savings for times such as these times.

Avoid debt. Cut costs. Building wealth is in your mindset, work on that and your financial potentials becomes exponential, develop good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for investments .The financial market has plenty of opportunities to earn..

It be interesting to see, for the millionaire at 30 years old, 40 years old, 59 years old, etc. How they got there? What did they do to collect that wealth? For example at 60 years old, time & saving should be the differentiator. But for younger, what steps can people take to develop wealth at a high amount.

Love the show but y'all need time stamps for these longer videos.

I think the show really helps improve your financial situation regardless of where you start but some of these episodes are tone deaf. The four cited studies show the problem of growing inequality and concentration of power. 1892: 84%, 1996: 80%, 2019: 79%, 2022: 76%. Clearly there’s a trend being ignored.

Net worth, of course. You can have a million dollars in your bank if you take a loan from the bank, but it still means your net worth is zero and you are just in debt. Only net worth tells what your real worth is, regardless of where the money came from.

Agree with using scarcity mentality for kids to create motivation. The "salt shaker of talents" is a perfect expression for those who are gifted - and yes, very few know how to harness that well.

Have liquid assets on hand that you can use to cash in on a downturn or crash and don't panic. Most of the "rich" people I know continued to buy in a down market, or were able to cash in on real estate when prices tanked and they were able to acquire lots/acreage and re-sell it to a developer when the markets came back. All the gurus love to dump on cash, but most of the rich/wealthy people I know love to have a nice chunk of cash on hand to capitalize on down markets that rebound. That's how the rich just continue to get richer.

Can someone summarize this? Thanks
