00:00
Spending money to save time.
00:02
Most people think getting rich means spending less.
00:04
Cutting subscriptions, skipping takeout,
00:06
doing everything yourself.
00:08
But the wealthiest people spend more,
00:10
and they do it on purpose.
00:12
They buy back time.
00:13
Paying for grocery delivery, cleaning help,
00:16
or software that automates boring work seems wasteful.
00:19
Until you realize time is the only thing
00:22
that can't be replaced.
00:24
Every hour you outsource becomes an hour
00:25
you can spend earning, thinking, or resting.
00:28
All things that multiply over time.
00:31
The average person trades time for money.
00:34
The rich trade money for time.
00:37
It's not about luxury, it's about leverage.
00:40
If your time is worth $50 an hour,
00:42
and you can pay someone $20 to handle it,
00:44
you're not being lazy, you're compounding productivity.
00:48
Over years, this flips your entire financial trajectory.
00:52
People who hoard time tasks stay stuck working in their life.
00:56
People who buy back time start working on it.
00:59
The poor save dollars.
01:01
The rich save hours.
01:03
And hours, unlike money, never come back once they're spent.
01:07
Measuring purchases in hours.
01:10
Here's a habit that quietly rewires your brain.
01:13
Stop measuring money in dollars.
01:15
Measure it in time.
01:17
Every purchase becomes a trade between your wallet and your life.
01:20
A $60 dinner isn't $60.
01:23
It's two or three hours of your time.
01:26
A $1,000 phone is 40 hours of your life.
01:30
When you see time instead of price,
01:32
your brain suddenly gets honest about what matters.
01:35
That's why people who think this way spend less.
01:38
Not because they're frugal,
01:40
but because they've connected money to meaning.
01:43
When something costs 10 hours,
01:45
you ask yourself,
01:46
is this really worth a full day of my life?
01:49
Usually the answer's no.
01:51
The key is that you stop chasing the short dopamine hits of spending
01:55
and start valuing free time like income.
01:58
The wealthy already think this way.
02:00
As I said in the last section,
02:02
the rich buy time instead of spending it.
02:05
Using debt to your advantage.
02:06
Debt is one of those words that scares people.
02:09
And rightfully so.
02:10
Bad debt traps you.
02:12
It's the quicksand of the financial world.
02:15
Easy to step into and nearly impossible to escape.
02:18
But, used right,
02:20
debt becomes a sort of leverage.
02:22
One that multiplies your effort
02:23
far beyond what saving ever could.
02:26
It's how businesses scale,
02:28
homeowners build equity,
02:29
and investors grow faster than inflation.
02:32
Debt is a tool.
02:33
It just depends who's holding it.
02:35
Poor debt buys comfort.
02:37
Rich debt buys freedom.
02:39
A car loan for a luxury model bleeds you
02:41
and holds you down.
02:43
A loan for property that appreciates
02:45
pays you back.
02:46
Most people think of debt as something to fear.
02:49
But the smart ones treat it like rented speed.
02:52
Dangerous, if uncontrolled,
02:54
but powerful in skilled hands.
02:57
The key isn't avoiding debt.
02:59
It's making sure the thing you borrow for
03:01
grows faster than the interest you owe.
03:03
That's how fortunes are built.
03:06
But if used wrong,
03:07
debt owns you.
03:08
Refusing to save every penny.
03:10
It sounds irresponsible,
03:12
refusing to save.
03:14
But here's the paradox.
03:15
People who try to save every penny
03:17
almost never get rich.
03:19
They're too focused on defense,
03:20
never offense.
03:22
Saving is survival,
03:23
not what helps you grow.
03:25
If all you do is cut costs,
03:27
your entire financial world
03:28
shrinks around what's safe.
03:30
But when you spend strategically
03:31
on things that expand income,
03:34
like tools, skills, or relationships,
03:36
you break that ceiling.
03:38
The rich don't obsess over $5 coffees.
03:40
They obsess over $50,000 opportunities.
03:44
Hoarding money builds fear.
03:46
Investing it builds momentum.
03:48
You don't get wealthy by being cheap.
03:50
You get wealthy by being efficient.
03:53
When every dollar has to be justified,
03:55
none of them get to grow.
03:57
Money has a purpose.
03:58
To move.
03:59
To build and multiply.
04:01
And if you trap it under your mattress,
04:03
it stops being money at all.
04:05
It just becomes paper.
04:06
Investing into yourself.
04:07
This one feels weird
04:09
because it looks selfish.
04:11
Spending on yourself
04:12
instead of saving.
04:13
But investing into yourself
04:15
is the single highest return asset class
04:18
in existence.
04:19
Courses, coaches, therapy,
04:21
mentors, fitness,
04:23
they all seem expensive
04:24
until you realize
04:26
how much they change your output.
04:28
Another way to invest into yourself
04:30
is paying for accountability.
04:32
Most people rely on motivation,
04:34
but motivation is unreliable.
04:37
Accountability makes progress automatic.
04:40
The money you spend
04:41
to have someone expect something from you,
04:43
a deadline,
04:44
a deliverable,
04:45
a goal,
04:46
forces you to become
04:47
the kind of person
04:48
who doesn't waste potential.
04:50
When you pay for something,
04:52
you pay attention to it.
04:53
That's why people who invest
04:55
in their own growth
04:56
accelerate faster.
04:57
They attach real cost
04:59
to not making progress.
05:01
Avoiding good deals.
05:02
Everyone loves a deal.
05:04
30% off,
05:05
buy one, get one,
05:06
limited time only,
05:08
I could go on forever.
05:09
But that feeling of
05:11
winning at spending
05:12
is what keeps most people broke.
05:15
A deal is still an expense.
05:17
The discount doesn't matter
05:19
if you didn't need it
05:20
in the first place.
05:21
That's the trap.
05:22
Sales make you feel smart
05:24
for losing money slower.
05:26
Wealthy people don't chase deals
05:28
because they know attention
05:30
is the real cost.
05:31
Every good deal
05:33
steals focus and time
05:35
you could spend
05:35
earning or creating.
05:37
Discounts are marketing,
05:39
not miracles.
05:40
Imagine you got offered
05:41
50% off of an item
05:43
that was marked up
05:44
twice the original price.
05:46
You've just been manipulated
05:47
by marketing
05:48
into buying something
05:49
for the normal price.
05:51
The rich measure value
05:52
by utility
05:53
instead of a simple price.
05:55
If something improves their life,
05:57
they pay full price.
05:58
If it doesn't,
05:59
it's overpriced
06:00
even at 90% off.
06:02
Good deals
06:02
keep poor people
06:03
busy saving pennies.
06:05
It's better to pay
06:06
full price
06:07
for something you need
06:08
than get 90% off
06:10
something you don't need.
06:11
Overpaying on purpose.
06:13
Overpaying on purpose
06:14
feels stupid.
06:16
Why give away
06:16
more than you owe?
06:17
But that's exactly
06:18
why it works.
06:19
It's not about
06:20
wasting money.
06:21
It's about rewiring
06:22
how you think about it.
06:24
Most people live
06:25
in survival mode,
06:26
always calculating
06:27
the bare minimum.
06:29
The minimum payment,
06:30
the cheapest option,
06:31
the lowest bid.
06:32
Overpaying
06:33
flips that psychology.
06:35
When you round up payments,
06:36
send extra
06:37
toward your credit card
06:38
or pay bills early,
06:40
you teach your brain
06:41
that money isn't something
06:42
to hoard in fear.
06:44
It's a tool
06:44
you control.
06:46
The act itself
06:47
builds an abundance mentality.
06:49
Instead of
06:50
I can't afford this,
06:51
your mind starts thinking
06:53
I'm ahead.
06:54
And this changes
06:55
everything.
06:56
You gain peace,
06:58
not pressure.
06:59
Your debts
07:00
shrink faster.
07:01
Your relationships
07:02
with money
07:02
and people
07:03
become cleaner
07:05
because you stop
07:06
nickel and diming life.
07:07
Spending on mistakes,
07:09
we're taught that
07:10
every mistake
07:10
costs money.
07:12
The wealthy
07:12
treat mistakes differently.
07:14
They spend on them
07:14
intentionally.
07:16
Buying cheap gear,
07:17
outsourcing too soon,
07:18
or paying someone else's fee
07:20
might feel like
07:20
a bad purchase.
07:22
But in reality,
07:23
it's a strategic risk.
07:24
The lesson costs less
07:26
than the opportunity
07:27
lost by inaction.
07:29
They pay for clarity,
07:30
not comfort.
07:31
The moment you stop
07:32
trying to avoid
07:33
all mistakes
07:34
is the moment
07:35
you start learning fast.
07:37
Each failed experiment
07:38
becomes a data point,
07:39
each misstep
07:40
a calibration.
07:42
Wealth doesn't come
07:43
from getting everything right.
07:44
It comes from
07:45
correcting courses quickly.
07:47
So spending a little now
07:48
to know
07:48
that won't work
07:50
saves a lot later
07:51
in wasted time
07:52
and compounded indecision.
07:54
Mistakes cost money,
07:55
yes,
07:56
but indecision costs years.
07:59
And if there's anything
07:59
you should have taken
08:00
from this video so far,
08:02
it's that wealthy people
08:03
prefer to waste money
08:05
than time.
08:06
Emotionally detaching yourself
08:08
from money.
08:09
Most people live
08:10
in emotional debt
08:11
to their bank balance.
08:13
When they have money,
08:14
they feel safe.
08:15
When they don't,
08:16
they panic.
08:17
The wealthy
08:17
learn to detach
08:19
from that cycle.
08:20
They see money
08:21
as a tool,
08:22
not as a mood indicator.
08:24
Detachment doesn't mean
08:25
not caring.
08:27
It means not depending.
08:29
When your emotions
08:29
rise and fall
08:30
with your income,
08:31
you make desperate choices.
08:33
Chasing quick wins,
08:35
selling too soon,
08:36
buying too fast.
08:38
Emotional neutrality
08:39
is what keeps investors
08:40
calm when markets crash
08:41
and creators focused
08:43
when results lag.
08:45
The rich treat money
08:46
like oxygen,
08:47
essential but invisible
08:49
once it's flowing.
08:50
They track it,
08:52
respect it,
08:53
but never let it define
08:54
their self-worth.
08:55
Because the moment
08:56
money controls
08:57
how you feel,
08:58
it starts controlling
08:59
what you do.
09:00
Ignoring windfalls,
09:01
when most people
09:02
get a small financial win,
09:04
a refund,
09:04
a bonus,
09:05
a random crypto gain,
09:06
they celebrate
09:07
by spending it.
09:08
But the rich
09:09
usually do nothing.
09:10
They act like
09:11
it never happened.
09:12
Every unplanned dollar
09:13
quietly becomes
09:14
an invisible worker,
09:15
invested,
09:16
automated,
09:17
or saved
09:17
for the next opportunity.
09:19
It's psychological training.
09:21
Ignoring the dopamine hit
09:22
of sudden money
09:23
builds control.
09:25
It's not the big wins
09:25
that create wealth.
09:27
It's how you handle
09:27
the small ones.
09:29
Every time you treat
09:29
a surprise dollar
09:30
like just another tool,
09:32
you strengthen the habit
09:33
that builds freedom.
09:35
When you stop letting
09:35
extra money feel extra,
09:38
you stop resetting
09:39
your progress
09:39
every time life
09:40
gives you a lucky break.
09:41
Taking risks
09:42
on purpose.
09:44
Most people think
09:44
rich people love risk,
09:46
but the truth is
09:46
they train for it.
09:48
They take small,
09:49
controlled risks
09:50
constantly,
09:51
so big ones
09:52
don't scare them later.
09:54
It's not gambling.
09:55
It's building tolerance.
09:56
Every decision
09:57
that feels uncertain,
09:59
starting a side project,
10:00
changing careers,
10:01
investing early,
10:02
is a rep
10:03
in risk training.
10:04
The poor avoid
10:05
that feeling.
10:06
The rich seek it
10:08
because there's
10:08
no path to wealth
10:09
that doesn't go
10:10
straight through risk.
10:11
It's the toll gate
10:13
between comfort
10:14
and freedom,
10:15
and you can't skip it.
10:16
Risk isn't what
10:17
loses people money.
10:18
Panic does.
10:20
The wealthy learn
10:21
to separate fear
10:22
from danger,
10:23
to act
10:23
before everything
10:25
feels safe.
10:26
Every fortune
10:27
started with someone
10:28
who stepped into
10:29
uncertainty
10:29
on purpose.
10:31
The goal isn't
10:32
to eliminate risk.
10:33
It's to get so familiar
10:34
with it
10:35
that you stop
10:36
needing certainty
10:37
to move forward.
10:38
Only buy things
10:39
you can afford.
10:40
Most people think,
10:41
can I buy this
10:42
means do I have
10:43
the money?
10:44
But the rich
10:45
think differently.
10:46
They ask,
10:47
can I afford this?
10:48
There's a huge gap
10:50
between the two.
10:51
You can purchase
10:52
almost anything
10:52
with debt,
10:53
credit,
10:54
or sacrifice,
10:55
but you can only
10:56
afford what won't
10:57
change your stress
10:58
level after you buy it.
10:59
If it steals sleep,
11:01
time,
11:02
or future freedom,
11:03
it's not affordable,
11:05
it's just available.
11:06
The wealthy
11:07
measure affordability
11:08
in peace of mind,
11:10
not price tags.
11:11
They buy slowly,
11:12
deliberately,
11:13
only when it costs
11:14
them nothing
11:15
beyond money.
11:16
Because the truth is,
11:18
being able to buy
11:19
something doesn't
11:20
make you rich.
11:21
Being able to buy it
11:22
and feel nothing
11:23
afterward does.
11:25
Using envy as power.
11:27
Most people waste envy.
11:28
They treat it like poison.
11:30
The wealthy
11:30
use it like data.
11:32
When they feel jealous,
11:33
they don't hide from it,
11:34
they study it.
11:35
Because envy points
11:36
directly to the gap
11:37
between what you want
11:38
and what you've built.
11:39
If you feel it,
11:41
it means something in you
11:42
recognizes possibility.
11:44
Instead of resenting
11:45
that person,
11:46
they reverse engineer them.
11:47
Habits,
11:48
systems,
11:49
mindset.
11:50
Until they turn jealousy
11:51
into a map.
11:52
It's your emotional navigator,
11:54
showing exactly where
11:55
your next level lives.
11:58
The poor try to silence envy.
12:00
The rich try to decode it.
12:01
Because you can't transform
12:03
what you won't look at.
12:04
Every feeling of
12:05
why not me
12:06
is a mirror saying
12:08
it could be.
12:09
The difference
12:09
is what you do next.
