[SPEAKER_00]: I get messages every single day from people telling me, they just don't have enough money saved.
[SPEAKER_00]: They're stretched to their absolute limit.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is not going to be your typical, you know, pay off that type video.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, many of you are feeling like you're doing everything right.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're working hard, you're showing up, you're paying your bills, but you still can't seem to get ahead and I understand that, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: Distress of checking your account before you even swipe the card.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've been there, I understand you.
[SPEAKER_00]: But here's what nobody is telling you about being broke.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was twenty something years old, living paycheck to paycheck, making every single financial mistake in the book.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I discovered
[SPEAKER_00]: these nine money moves that changed everything for me and family when I say this.
[SPEAKER_00]: If I can go from checking my account balance in the grocery store line to never worrying about money again so can you if I can go.
[SPEAKER_00]: from putting in my debit card at the gas station hoping that it will get pre-authorized for a dollar to never ever question and can I get guys against so can you?
[SPEAKER_00]: This is passionate for me because I've been there and I know what it feels like to be working on two jobs, three jobs, just two survive.
[SPEAKER_00]: So today I want you to dial in and I want to walk you through exactly what to do when you do not have enough money.
[SPEAKER_00]: When you're stuck in that paycheck to paycheck cycle and the nine moves that would change your financial life forever.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna get straight to it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's go.
[SPEAKER_00]: Move number one.
[SPEAKER_00]: Stop accepting broke as your identity.
[SPEAKER_00]: Stop accepting being average as your identity.
[SPEAKER_00]: Stop accepting.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just like everyone else as your identity.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because we gotta start right here.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know it sounds so cliche, Anthony, but mindset really is everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: You may not have any extra money right now, but you still have power and you still have God on your side.
[SPEAKER_00]: The Bible says, all things are possible through me.
[SPEAKER_00]: So if all things are possible through me, I gotta believe that I can't be wealthy.
[SPEAKER_00]: I gotta believe that I can't be that free.
[SPEAKER_00]: I gotta believe in here first.
[SPEAKER_00]: I gotta accept what the Word of God says about me inside of here.
[SPEAKER_00]: You have the power to change your mindset.
[SPEAKER_00]: You have the power to make choices that shift your financial future.
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen to me, listen to me, listen, listen, listen.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not done.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not even broken.
[SPEAKER_00]: You may have experienced life, you may have made some dumb decisions, but you're just in a tight season.
[SPEAKER_00]: But staying broke will no longer be your choice.
[SPEAKER_00]: Once you understand how many really works, once you go from being a piece of the game to knowing how to play the game.
[SPEAKER_00]: And today, on this show, I'm not here to beat you up.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm here to build you up.
[SPEAKER_00]: So today is the last day, you say it is what it is.
[SPEAKER_00]: Every time you get an argument, every time you just want to go in the towel, man, it is what it is.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I bumped that.
[SPEAKER_00]: From now on, it is what I decide it will be.
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
[SPEAKER_00]: You all gotta say that with me.
[SPEAKER_00]: From today moving on,
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not saying it is what it is.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to repeat after me right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're driving in your car, if you're watching this live, type it inside of the chat section.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're watching this on the replay after his live, I want you to type it inside a comment section.
[SPEAKER_00]: But right now, I want you to speak it out loud.
[SPEAKER_00]: From today moving on, it is what I decide it will be.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?
[SPEAKER_00]: Because the Bible says, speak it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Speak it.
[SPEAKER_00]: I will be wealthy.
[SPEAKER_00]: I will be debt-free.
[SPEAKER_00]: I will change my family future.
[SPEAKER_00]: My children will be wealthy.
[SPEAKER_00]: My children will be able to have shoes.
[SPEAKER_00]: My children will be able to go to any college that they desire to go to.
[SPEAKER_00]: I am changing things through.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's moving number two.
[SPEAKER_00]: Learn to money rules.
[SPEAKER_00]: They never taught you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Learn to money rules.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your parents never taught you.
[SPEAKER_00]: They church never taught you.
[SPEAKER_00]: The schools never taught you.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, nobody taught us this stuff growing up.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you weren't raised around wealth, chances are you never learned how to manage money.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm in school completing my MBA.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be done here in a couple of months.
[SPEAKER_00]: I cannot believe still to this fact that
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, I went back to school.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got my bachelor's in finance and banking.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got my executive MBA and church management.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I start my doctoral program here in the fall.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm in October, man, to get my doctorate of my DBA and my DBA in finance and investing.
[SPEAKER_00]: And what I was in my class, I had to do a presentation on my company.
[SPEAKER_00]: I had to do a SWAT analysis.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm gonna do some lessons on SWAT analysis, just so you all can learn this.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's well, I had to do a SWAT analysis on my company, while I was presenting to my particular class man, I had several people.
[SPEAKER_00]: who were in their forties and fifties and watched this.
[SPEAKER_00]: I even had young man in his twenties.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I love my class and a lot of my peers, my classmates are watching this right now and I love you all.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much for your words of encouragement here on this past week.
[SPEAKER_00]: But there was that man, Anthony, thank you for what you're doing because I never learned this.
[SPEAKER_00]: I had a fifty-five year old young lady who transitioned from being married to out of her own.
[SPEAKER_00]: She said, believe it or not, Anthony, at fifty-five years old, what you're teaching, I do
[SPEAKER_00]: Not, no, and I need to know.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I had a twenty-year-old tell me, my man listened, and I grew up in the home, and my parents never taught me to sub that, that you just presented to us of what your company is about.
[SPEAKER_00]: So thank you so much.
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't take financial literacy serious within our age bracket.
[SPEAKER_00]: So if we were not raised around wealth, if our parents were not financially intellectually there, chances are we never learned how to manage money and respectfully.
[SPEAKER_00]: My parents didn't teach me how to build wealth.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know why?
[SPEAKER_00]: Because they weren't wealthy at that time from a practical standpoint.
[SPEAKER_00]: But let me tell you right now, it may not be your fault that you didn't know, but it is your responsibility to learn.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here are the five money rules that would change your life moving forward.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[SPEAKER_00]: Number one, put this up there, Ed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Number one, money roll, it's been less than what you make.
[SPEAKER_00]: They sound super simple, but most people fail here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Number two, give each dollar a job, aka have a budget.
[SPEAKER_00]: Before you spend it, give that dollar an assignment.
[SPEAKER_00]: Number three, save before you spend it.
[SPEAKER_00]: pay God first, pay yourself next.
[SPEAKER_00]: Number four, debt, consumer debt, specifically, is not your friend.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's stealing from your future.
[SPEAKER_00]: Number five, you don't need to look like you got it to build wealth.
[SPEAKER_00]: This whole fake it till you make it is keeping us broke.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, be you until you make it to the next age.
[SPEAKER_00]: Those are the five simple money rules that I live by.
[SPEAKER_00]: I spend less than what I make, why?
[SPEAKER_00]: Because that creates margin.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it's built when you have margin.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was teaching at Fifthville State University a month ago, and I was teaching these high schoolers.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, man, do you understand what margin is?
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, what is margin?
[SPEAKER_00]: And I told them on a day one, I told them to go home and ask their parents.
[SPEAKER_00]: Mom and dad, what does margin mean financially?
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to say about seventy five percent of the kids came back and they said the parents didn't understand margin.
[SPEAKER_00]: And margin simply this if I make five thousand and I'm only spending thirty five hundred dollars a month.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got fifteen hundred dollars in margin.
[SPEAKER_00]: That margin is what I use to build wealth.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is what I'm investing.
[SPEAKER_00]: So those five simple money rules.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the foundation.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is going to help you build wealth.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to help you build on it.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's going to move number three.
[SPEAKER_00]: Move number three.
[SPEAKER_00]: You got to enter into the financial survival mode.
[SPEAKER_00]: What do I mean by survival mode?
[SPEAKER_00]: Simple terms.
[SPEAKER_00]: Cut the fluff.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're struggling to breathe financially, it's time to enter financial survival mode.
[SPEAKER_00]: That means cutting everything that isn't a true need.
[SPEAKER_00]: Example, I am on this journey of becoming healthier.
[SPEAKER_00]: Forty-one years old and, man, I was sitting down my nutritionist and my coach.
[SPEAKER_00]: And he said, man, we gotta cut the fluff out.
[SPEAKER_00]: We need to cut out sugars.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not helping you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right now, we gotta cut out bread.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not helping you right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: You gotta get into fat burning mode.
[SPEAKER_00]: You gotta get into feeding you things that you need and cutting out things that you necessarily do not need right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because if you can cut out the fluff, you'll get to your weight goals quicker.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sprinets back over to money.
[SPEAKER_00]: What are your needs?
[SPEAKER_00]: Rent utilities, groceries, transportations.
[SPEAKER_00]: What is the fluff?
[SPEAKER_00]: Netflix, door bags, gym memberships, Amazon splurges, mall runs, emotional spending, excessive dating.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I said it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Cut the dating, brothers, sisters.
[SPEAKER_00]: Cut going to the diagonal and hair and now spot every other week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Pause the Netflix.
[SPEAKER_00]: Council that gym membership, you ain't going every single day anyway.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if someone says yellow, you only live once, tell them, I'm trying to live well for as long as I can.
[SPEAKER_00]: Not just flakes one time and stay broke for the rest of my life.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not trying to live for today.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then when I'm seventy five freaking years old, I still gotta be at McDonald's, starting your day on grandchildren and getting cut out because they didn't have cheese on their burgers.
[SPEAKER_00]: At two o'clock in the morning, after they went to the club, I want to be in the bad sleep.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to wake up.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I want to wake up, I want to go bad.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I want to go to bed, and I want to get my grandchildren.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whenever I want to get my grandchildren, and I want to spoil them and I crazy them.
[SPEAKER_00]: Send them back home to their parents.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want them to come over here and get cavities at my house.
[SPEAKER_00]: Send them back home.
[SPEAKER_00]: And because listen to me, temporary sacrifices, bills, permanent freedom.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if we could put that on the tweet on the screen somewhere, well I'm loving this, I'm loving this season that I'm in, temporary sacrifices, build permanent freedom.
[SPEAKER_00]: Alright family, let me keep it real with you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, most people avoid talking about life insurance because it's uncomfortable.
[SPEAKER_00]: It takes forever to get approved and honestly, it feels like you're planning for the worst.
[SPEAKER_00]: Totally kidding, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: But I see an exact same thing.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's what changed in my mind.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, forty percent of Americans don't have life insurance at all.
[SPEAKER_00]: The ones who do, their policies are usually worth just two times their annual salary.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's nowhere near enough money to protect your family, to protect the people who you say you love.
[SPEAKER_00]: Can you know me?
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't partner with just anybody.
[SPEAKER_00]: But when I found ethos, I got my own two million dollar policy because they made it extremely simple.
[SPEAKER_00]: No medical exams, no blood tests, no waiting weeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: I literally got covered in ten minutes from my phone.
[SPEAKER_00]: Note life.
[SPEAKER_00]: Over two thousand families get approved through ethos every single day.
[SPEAKER_00]: They've got an A plus rating with the better business bureau and four point eight out of five stars on trust power.
[SPEAKER_00]: These aren't just numbers.
[SPEAKER_00]: These are real families getting protected right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's your bike insurance rates go up and by eight to ten percent every single year you wait.
[SPEAKER_00]: The same policy I got a few years ago will cost me way more if I buy today.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your family's financial security should never depend on your paycheck alone.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not building well.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't wait until it's too late.
[SPEAKER_00]: want you to visit anthonylo.com for us as ethos to get a free quote today.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to apply a minute.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to get covered today.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to protect your family's future.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're counting on you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Go to anthonylo.com for us as ethos.
[SPEAKER_00]: Which leads me to move number four.
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got to stack your first one thousand dollar emergency fund like yesterday.
[SPEAKER_00]: Before you start tackling your consumer debt,
[SPEAKER_00]: Before you start investing, I need you to stack cushion.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay?
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?
[SPEAKER_00]: Because one flat tire, one medical bill, one miss check can take you out to gay.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I want you to start with just a thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't aim for five thousand.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know why Tish have at least three to six months of your net pay saved inside of a Hollywood savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: But right now, I need you to get a small win.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care if you have to sell old clothes on Facebook Marketplace.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm actually selling a treadmill right now on Facebook Marketplace.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care if you've got a babysitter on the weekends.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care if you've got a flip furniture.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care if you've got a drive Uber on Saturday mornings.
[SPEAKER_00]: Friday evenings being get off the work.
[SPEAKER_00]: Do whatever you've got to do to get that thousand dollars inside of your high yield saves account fast like yesterday.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the key here is, this money move is you have to have this in a separate account.
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not put it inside of your checking account because you're gonna be tempted to spend it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not even put it attached to your savings.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't even put it inside of your savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a task to your checking account that you see every single day.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, this needs to be on a whole, another higher savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: Out of sight means out of sight.
[SPEAKER_00]: out of sight means out of swipe.
[SPEAKER_00]: That one thousand dollars is your shield.
[SPEAKER_00]: It is your backup plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: It is your very first quick win.
[SPEAKER_00]: And when you get this thousand dollars, you're going to put this inside of your highest savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: And we personally recommend so far here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Go to anthemunil.comforce.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's so fast.
[SPEAKER_00]: It should be a lower third up on the screen right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're listening to this on podcast, we'll make sure to have that in the side of the side of the show knows.
[SPEAKER_00]: What I love about so far is if we're saving, if we're getting a thousand dollars, what they're going to give you three hundred dollars just to open up a check and then save as a count today.
[SPEAKER_00]: So now you really only need to set aside seven hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: For some of you all, that's the other maybe two or three items and you're at a thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Just like
[SPEAKER_00]: Which moves me on the move number five, because I think a lot of you all are gonna have to really find some hidden money.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's there, our promise.
[SPEAKER_00]: You said, Anthony, we're gonna come up with seven hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, we gotta find a money size budget.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can't just save your way to what thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: You just can't save your way to wealth.
[SPEAKER_00]: You need to create the margin.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's how, it's simple.
[SPEAKER_00]: And we won't get a bunch of bills.
[SPEAKER_00]: call your providers in negotiate.
[SPEAKER_00]: I saved two hundred thousand month just by making phone calls.
[SPEAKER_00]: I actually saved.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to be honest with you.
[SPEAKER_00]: I saved six hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: By calling around, I left State Farm.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was charging me about twelve to thirteen hundred dollars a month to ensure my cars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I called, not called around.
[SPEAKER_00]: I went online.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just put all of my information out there.
[SPEAKER_00]: And all state came back and said, hey, we'll give you full coverage on all your cars for six hundred and twenty six hundred.
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't mirror these at mouth.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like six hundred fifty bucks somewhere around there.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's in the six hundred.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I was like, wait, what?
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is what I did, y'all.
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't finish the application.
[SPEAKER_00]: Within a matter of an hour and a half, all of a sudden they called me.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, hey, man, this is what I need.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what state farmers offer me.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need the exact same coverage on my cars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Is this the correct quote?
[SPEAKER_00]: Lady came back.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was like at first like six hundred and like eighty bucks.
[SPEAKER_00]: She said, yeah, and obviously, if you're willing to do a higher deductible, I said, what's the highest deductible?
[SPEAKER_00]: Right now you have about a thousand, but you can put it at twenty five hundred.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you put your height, if you put your deductible, twenty-five hundred dollars, then we can go down to save the boomer money.
[SPEAKER_00]: I said, not a problem.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got the money inside my savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, go up to the highest deductible.
[SPEAKER_00]: Watch this because I have two cars.
[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, well, we can take out roadside assistance because if one car goes down, you can use your other car.
[SPEAKER_00]: I said, bet, take roadside assistance out.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't need it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Not rose side assistance?
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, I'm sorry, rent the cars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Negotiating.
[SPEAKER_00]: I started cutting bills.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, listen, the thirteen hundred dollars a month wasn't hurting my pocket.
[SPEAKER_00]: There may be honest with you.
[SPEAKER_00]: But why paid thirteen hundred would I be paying six hundred?
[SPEAKER_00]: What did that just do?
[SPEAKER_00]: It created margin.
[SPEAKER_00]: Another one is, you can sell some stuff.
[SPEAKER_00]: That old iPad, those old shoes that are collecting dust, some of them dresses you have with tags on them, man, sell that stuff.
[SPEAKER_00]: Another one is, bullshit income.
[SPEAKER_00]: Take a weekend shift.
[SPEAKER_00]: Deliver groceries, sell a digital product, start a stop hustle.
[SPEAKER_00]: Start a YouTube channel.
[SPEAKER_00]: Figure out a way to boost your income.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you can find even just a hundred dollars of margin a month, that's the game changer.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's twelve hundred dollars a year.
[SPEAKER_00]: That could fully fund your emergency account.
[SPEAKER_00]: Pay it out, credit card.
[SPEAKER_00]: Give you a little bit of breathing room.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not alive.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a little bit.
[SPEAKER_00]: And do not think small.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of you are one idea away from a six-figure business.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're one idea away from a extra twenty five thousand dollars a year side hustle.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're one idea away from your next breakthrough and to help you find this money.
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, I want you to go to Anthony onel.com for slash twenty one day.

[SPEAKER_00]: So again, go to Anthony on theo.com for us.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's when we went there.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I got like three more things.
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll get it out of here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's move number six.
[SPEAKER_00]: Use a written budget.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't do it in the side of your head.
[SPEAKER_00]: Trust me on that.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I think I got it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, wait, no, no, no, no.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's keep it real.
[SPEAKER_00]: You cannot win with money by guessing.
[SPEAKER_00]: A budget is honestly not a punishment.
[SPEAKER_00]: It is honestly permission to enjoy your money.
[SPEAKER_00]: It gives your money direction before you even touch it.
[SPEAKER_00]: I use as your base budget format.
[SPEAKER_00]: Every dollar gets assigned.
[SPEAKER_00]: Every expense is intentional.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't win it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And what I've learned is financial winners, wealthy individuals, not rich people, wealthy individuals, they have a game plan for their money.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can go to anthonyl.com for us at store.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can download our budgeting tool there, our wealth tracker.
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll put that inside of today's show notes as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's so many products and resources, y'all.
[SPEAKER_00]: I can keep saying this for days and after every single point, but a lot of content and a lot of tools and resources are at anthonyl.com.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can go there and you have access to all this stuff that we're mentioning inside of today's show.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, move number seven.
[SPEAKER_00]: Keep it real with your friends, aka your circle.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no shame in saying, hey, I can't afford this right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: What's worse?
[SPEAKER_00]: Flexing like you're good, trying to keep up, and still being broke a year from now, or telling your friends you're on building.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got some financial goals that I need to meet.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm tired of struggling.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm tired of living page of the page eight.
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, it'd be real to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm tired of looking like I got it all together.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm ready to have it all together.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm gonna have to catch up with you a little bit later.
[SPEAKER_00]: because your real friends, they will totally understand.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the rest, man, let them talk about you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let them call you broke, let them call you cheat, let them call you whatever they're gonna call you, man, because I guarantee you half of those friends are broken cheap and they need to be doing the same thing that you're doing.
[SPEAKER_00]: You'll be too busy living your best life financially free while they're still struggling and looking good.
[SPEAKER_00]: Trust me, I had friends who had the Mercedes who had the BMWs when I was growing up when I was on my journey of fixing my life.
[SPEAKER_00]: I had friends who were no longer my friends today because I just told them I was like, yo bro, I'm tired.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm tired.
[SPEAKER_00]: I am sick and tired of being sick and tired of my own gag on life.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if I want to change that, I gotta make some decisions.
[SPEAKER_00]: To this day they do not talk to me.
[SPEAKER_00]: But to this day, I know I have a, I don't wanna say a better light, because I'm not, I'm not a better individual, but I think I have more freedom.
[SPEAKER_00]: Moving number eight.
[SPEAKER_00]: Celebrate every single win.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of you have who watched my show, I'm gonna say either the most recent show or some of the most recent shows.
[SPEAKER_00]: I talked to you how to save ten thousand dollars and fifty two weeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: And on each, every four weeks, I wanted you to celebrate.
[SPEAKER_00]: because going from two hundred to five hundred to a thousand dollars and four weeks, that's massive.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because here's a truth.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some months are going to get messy.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of your budgets are going to blow up.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some weeks you might feel like giving up, but I don't want you to.
[SPEAKER_00]: Someone to celebrate every single win.
[SPEAKER_00]: You put fifty dollars away this month.
[SPEAKER_00]: A celebrate that.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is a win.
[SPEAKER_00]: You paid off a bill.
[SPEAKER_00]: You paid off one of your debts.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is progress.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is a win.
[SPEAKER_00]: You made it through the month without borrowing without swiping your credit card.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is a win.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be honest with you all.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I go a whole week and I eat one hundred percent clean, I celebrate.
[SPEAKER_00]: How do I celebrate?
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll open up a spray.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm back on it.
[SPEAKER_00]: I celebrate wins because you're not feeling your building finances security for your future.
[SPEAKER_00]: And here is the last move that changed my life.
[SPEAKER_00]: I give you eight moves.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why have all eight of them if you don't activate it and start right now?
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not wait for the perfect time.
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember when I was telling my coach, I was like, man, I started right before my graduation.
[SPEAKER_00]: I said, bro, I work hard.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like a celebrate.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then when I look at that, I said, oh, man, and the memorial days come to come to come.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, man, Junting's all that, oh, man, my birthday is coming up.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I kept giving him these days when the perfect time of start.
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, Anthony, you would never find it perfect time because you're always finding the excuse and the reason to start late.
[SPEAKER_00]: Start.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, your birthday comes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Menace celebrate.
[SPEAKER_00]: How you celebrate it may shift a little bit, but you'll be able to indulge a little bit.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, man, fourth of July, okay.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can still go to the barbecue.
[SPEAKER_00]: You just may not be able to eat the pork.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can get maybe some barbecue chicken.
[SPEAKER_00]: Remember, we're talking about mindset.
[SPEAKER_00]: And your mindset is the very beginning of everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not a failure.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're starting.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's something most people never do.
[SPEAKER_00]: They do not start.
[SPEAKER_00]: So today, I want you to make a decision to do something different.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't wait for a raise.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't wait for me things calm down.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to start today.
[SPEAKER_00]: And what you do have, use it.
[SPEAKER_00]: You got God.
[SPEAKER_00]: You have strength, you have power.
[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't take luck.
[SPEAKER_00]: it just takes a determined mindset and consistency.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can do this y'all.
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, made that one decision, make that one paycheck decision to start today.
[SPEAKER_00]: One dollar at a time.
[SPEAKER_00]: I went from being broken by twenties to never worrying about money again using these nine money moves.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you implement even three of these, your financial life will change, but if you implement all nine,
[SPEAKER_00]: you'll be unrecognizable within the next twelve months.
[SPEAKER_00]: By this time next year, you will not be the same person.
