7 Things Poor People DO That The Rich DON’T

Reading Time: 4m 25s


Number 1: Poor People Watch TV, and Rich People Read Books

How many hours do you spend in front of the TV, and when was the last fucking time you read a book? How many books do you read per year?

Number 2: Poor People Get Paid Based-On Time, and Rich People Get Paid Based-On Results

Let's say we're working on a product, we spent a year creating, perfecting the product, we bring it to the marketplace, and it sucks, it bombs, it doesn't make us a dime. The world doesn't give a fuck. We don't make money.

Nobody cares how much time, blood, sweat, and tears were spent creating a product and bringing it to the marketplace. How much risk that we take, they don't care. What they care about are results. That's why the highest-paid athletes in the world, don't get paid by how many hours they practice, or how many times they invested; no, it is how much they perform. They get paid based on performance.

Number 3: Poor People - They Blame Others for Their Misfortunes, and Rich People - They Take Responsibility for Their Own Failures

For poor people, it's always somebody else's fault. It's the economy; it's the government; it's my boss; it's my job; it's my city; it's my neighbour; it's my friends. It's always somebody else.

It's never their fucking fault. Rich people, we take responsibility. If your life stinks, it's your fault. We take responsibility for our actions. When you take responsibility, what happens is you gain power. The power to change. The power to do something different. Remember, lame people blame people.

Number 4: Poor People Focus on Saving, and Rich People Focus on Investing

You know what? Don't drink Starbucks coffee in the morning; try to save a few dollars here and there. Don't fly first class; fly economy. Always try to save a few dollars. Well, here's the thing, a penny saved is still a fucking penny. You won't get rich by trying to save a few bucks.

You don't have a saving problem; you have an income problem. You need to earn a lot more money so that you can invest.

Number 5: Poor People - They Know It All, and Rich People - Continue to Learn

You see, poor people are always very opinionated. They always want to tell the world about their opinions, about politics, about sports, about society, about the government, about every single thing that's around them. Versus being humble, and willing to learn. Rich people, we're always learning. We're asking questions, listening, reading books, and continuously learning. Versus, saying that I've got an opinion about fucking everything.

Do you know why they always have an opinion, poor people? Because the only way to get a little bit of fucking attention. No different, I can see people, they're watching my video, my sales video, closing video, and I look at that and laugh. And they comment, oh Dan, you shouldn't close this way; you should close that way; say this.

When was the last time you fucking closed something? Please show me. When was the last time you closed something for 500 fucking dollars? $1,000? $2,000? $5,000, $10,000? $100,000? What the fuck have you done? So your opinion doesn't count. Remember, your income can only grow to the extent that you do. Your wealth can only grow as fast as you do.

Number 6: Poor People Believe That Money is The Root of All Evil, and Rich People Believe That Poverty is The Root of All Evil

You've heard of the saying, "Money is the root of all evil." No, lack of money is the root of all evil.

I want you to look at the poorest neighbourhoods. Could you think about those areas? Crime, drug, problems, all kinds of issues. You see, in the history of humankind, no banks have been robbed by someone pulling up in a Rolls-Royce. It is survival; the lack of money is causing the issue.

Money itself is neutral. Money is like a tool, you can use it for good, or you can use it for evil. It is all up to you.

Number 7: Poor People Have a Lottery Mentality, and Rich People Have An Action Mentality

Most people believe the only way to get rich is by buying that lottery ticket.

Even though they know the slim chance of winning, they buy that fantasy. Hopefully, if I win, I'm going to buy that house, I'm going to quit that job, I'm going to take that vacation. No, rich people have an action mentality. If it's going to be, it is up to me.

I'm going to make it happen. I'm going to make myself successful. I don't need to rely on some third party, and I don't need to rely on some lottery ticket. I'm going to make it happen. So those are the seven things that poor people do that the rich don't.

Conclusion

Rich people like to read books, and poor people like to watch TV. Do you like to read books? It's important to do a good job and work hard so we can earn money. We should always take responsibility for our mistakes and try to improve things. If we want to be rich, we need to invest our money. It's important to keep learning and working hard, so we can be successful in life. Money is like a tool; we can use it for good or bad things. And we don't need to rely on luck to be rich; we need to work hard and take action.
