Go to school, get good grades, go to college, get a good job after graduating college, get a car, get engaged, have a wedding, rent an apartment, furnish that apartment, after three years – buy a home, furnish that home, have 2-3 children, buy a bigger home further from work, buy a 2nd car – a van or SUV, every five years buy or lease new cars, commute 30 – 50 minutes to work from your bigger home, repair and improve your bigger home, repair your cars, enroll your kids in sports, take vacations, send your kids to college, retire.

These are the stages of life for many around the world.

At each stage, is a battle for your time, your money and your mind.

At each stage, your enemy seeks to force you into certain habits that ensure they win the battle for your time, your money and your mind.

Their weapon of choice is habits.

Their goal is to force you into habits that will enable them to capture your time, your money and your mind:

  • Bankers – The habit they force upon you is the Debt Habit. They offer debt to help you fund each stage of your life. Once that Debt Habit is forged, they win the battle for your future earnings.
  • Retailers – The habit they force upon you is the Spending Habit. They offer you products to purchase at each stage of your life. Once that Spending Habit is forged, they win the battle for your current and future money.
  • Media – The habit they force upon you is the Time Wasting Habit. They offer you content to watch, hear or listen. Once that Time Wasting Habit habit is forged, they win the battle for your mind.

These enemies use habits to enslave you for life.

But there’s a new counter-weapon that can turn the tables on your enemies. This counter-weapon is called Rich Habits. And I am its commander-in-chief.

Don’t surrender to your enemies.

Don’t become their slave.

Join my army.

And win back your freedom!
