The Dark Truth About Making Money NO ONE Wants To Talk About
You need to realize this immediately...
Do you know what’s expensive?
A Ferrari.
But, do you know what feels like it may as well be as expensive as a Ferrari?
A honeymoon.
Many of you know that I got married in September
And along with the nuptials was a European honeymoon
Let me tell you that taking a European cruise for 2 weeks is not a cheap endeavor
I’m talking $20,000+ for a couple week getaway
Now, fortunately, thanks to YouTube and the power of making money online this is not an amount of money that is outside of our reach
But it’s enough that it had me asking questions
In fact, this past week I had a meeting with my private banking representative
The topic of discussion? Retirement Planning
As we were talking I asked the rep, “How do people afford to save enough to retire given how expensive life is these days?”
His answer? They don’t…
He said that most people are solely focused on getting by and don’t even have the capacity for this type of future planning
What was more surprising was that he’s not talking about people stocking shelves at Walmart
These are lawyers, CPAs, engineers etc.
Who, by society’s definition, should be able to afford to stack away cash for their later years
And that’s the sad, harsh truth about making money these days
The traditional career path isn’t yielding the same fruit as it used to
And it’s not only these discussions with financial experts that have made me aware of this
It’s the dozens of DMs I get every day on X and Instagram
From experienced white and blue collar workers asking how they can make more money
Because we’ve gone from the 1950’s where one income fed two mouthes
To the 1980s where one income fed one mouth
To now where it takes two incomes to feed one mouth
Given this new reality, it’s essential to start building a side income
For me, that was building faceless YouTube channels and it can be the same for you
If you’ve been on the fence about building your own online income
Let this be the friendly nudge you need to get started
