How the Wealthy Actually Build Wealth (Not What School Taught You)
Most people are taught to chase income.
Wealthy people chase ownership.
That difference changes everything.
Here’s the real game:
1. Income ≠ Wealth
High income can still mean broke.
Wealth = assets + cash flow + time.
2. Ownership is the cheat code
Jobs pay once.
Assets pay repeatedly.
Businesses, equity, real estate, IP → that’s the focus.
3. Assets vs Liabilities
Ask this before spending:
👉🏽 Does this put money in my pocket or take it out?
If it only takes… it’s not helping you build wealth.
4. Debt isn’t bad — ignorance is
Wealthy people use debt to buy income-producing assets.
Average people use debt to buy stuff.
5. Taxes are planned, not reacted to
The wealthy structure income before it’s earned.
Most people just hope for a refund.
6. School trained employees, not owners
Wealth education comes from:
- Mentors
- Experience
- Books
- Networks
Not classrooms.
