3 Pieces of Financial Advice to Young Men
And if you're a copywriter, READ THIS PRONTO!
I wish someone would’ve shared this with me as a younger man…
Travis here…
Inflation is kicking a lot of young men’s butts right now.
Not political…
But do you REALLY THINK the guvmint gives a damn?
I don’t.
They will keep printing money so they can keep giving money to the cronies that keep them in power.
Men are just money mules to these sickos on the hill.
They will beat you with a 2 X 4, smile the whole time and tell you to “Suck it up and be a man!”
There is one way to kick inflation’s ass and give the middle finger to the guvmint bureaucrats, in my experience…
So, if it’s cool with you?
I will veer off the copy tips today and share what worked for me…
(Reply to this email and lemme know if you’re cool with this topic. If you are, I’ll do more. If not, we’ll keep it copy tips.)
1. Understand and apply leverage or BE the lever.
2. Figure it out young.
3. If you’re not young, spare no expense to figure it out now.
I was the lever until age 36.
My dad died and I got focused AF!
It was the first time I had a DEEP understanding I was gonna die too.
My father’s really kicked me in the balls.
I got serious and figured out leverage and how to get control of valuable assets in days instead of years or decades.
I became financially indestructible at age 38.
My definition of financially indestructible:
“The ability to get control of valuable assets with nothing but the lint in your pocket.”
It’s when you don’t NEED money to make money that you become financially indestructible.
I’ve watched millionaires get wiped out and never get back on their feet.
Money doesn’t make you safe.
Understanding how to get and apply leverage is security.
The next level is mastering leverage with outrageous MARGIN.
Margin is the meat on the bone that allows you to clear your calendar.
Margin allows you to own the wheel, not be a cog on the wheel.
That’s my advice to young men. (I guess I can’t count.)
You can learn and try a lot of stuff.
But life sucked for me until I figured out my fulcrum point and leverage.
Your fulcrum point may be different than mine.
My fulcrum and leverage are Marketing IP and campaigns.
Gimme an audience and a good offer and I can work what some people call miracles.
I can monetize (leverage) in a dozen + ways while most only know one way.
Not tryna be cocky…
But paint a picture of what leverage looks like.
Most don’t recognize it even when they have it.
Fantastic copywriters are one example of people who could be APPLYING their leverage instead of being a lever.
Figure this out.
I guess you can take all the time you want?
We live forever.
Rooting for Ya,
Travis
