THE WORLD WILL BILL YOU FOR YOUR EXISTENCE
There is a lie that weak men tell themselves. They say that money is not important. They say they are too "spiritual" or too "focused on relationships" to care about finances. This is a coward's excuse. Money is the ammunition of your life. Without it, you cannot fight. Without it, you cannot protect. Without it, you are a casualty waiting to happen. I have stared into the abyss of zero. I found out exactly what happens when the resources run dry. It is not noble. It is terrifying. When you cannot pay for the best doctor for your sick child, tell me how unimportant money is. When you cannot help a brother who is about to lose his home, tell me how virtuous your poverty is. You have a moral obligation to be a surplus machine. You must produce more than you consume. If you are barely scraping by, you are a burden. You are one accident away from needing a handout. That is not leadership. That is dependency. You must harden your mind against the consumer culture. They want you weak. They want you in debt. They want you to trade your freedom for a shiny truck and a bigger TV. Do not let them enslave you. Every dollar you waste is a piece of your freedom you are handing over to the enemy. It is time to go to war with your impulses. It is time to lock down the Vault. If you are not stacking resources, you are failing your duty. Get aggressive. Get lean. Get safe. THE DRILL 1. Calculate your "Burn Rate" (Total monthly expenses to keep the lights on). 2. Multiply that number by 6. This is your "Sleep at Night" number. 3. Write this number on your mirror. Do not stop grinding until you hit it.
