Welcome to the Level Up Podcast.
I'm your host, Paul Alex.
I went from being a cop to an eight-figure entrepreneur
that helps average people like you and me
make money every single day.
I created this podcast to help you get motivated
and to crush your goals.
Let's win together.
Remember, I have your six.
Get ready to level up right now.
All right, here's the question of the day.
Does money make you actually happy?
Well, before we get into this topic, guys, I just want to tell you from personal experience,
my personal experience, that I would never take the opinion of someone who says, well,
money, money doesn't matter. That won't make you happy unless they are a multi-millionaire
and they have actually been able to experience how it is to have money. Okay. So before you
take anyone's actual advice, make sure that they are qualified to give you the advice.
And it doesn't mean them being certified, having a degree.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm talking about life experience.
We go off facts, not hearsay.
Remember, I have your sex.
So guys, I have built multimillion dollar businesses.
I have had multimillions in liquid.
I have bought the cars. I have bought the mansions,
the penthouses. I have experience going on trips. I have experience being financially free. This is
coming from a person who's a blue collar guy, lived like an average guy, and then finally towards
his mid thirties has been able to make it in life. But with that being said, what I could tell you from life
experience, guys, money does not make me happy. Material things do not make me happy. You know
what makes me happy? It's actually being able to take care of my why. And what is my why? You guys
should know this, my family. That is the important things in life, family and experience. Money
needs to be treated as a tool. Okay. It's a never ending cycle when it comes to generating
cashflow. Okay. So if you think that you're going to become a millionaire or a multimillionaire,
and then that's going to solve all your problems, guys, I'm telling you right now,
it's not going to solve all your problems. It's just going solve all your problems. Guys, I'm telling you right now, it's not going to solve all your problems.
It's just going to expand your problems.
If you got problems right now, just making 100K or even 50K a year, okay?
So don't have the mindset of, well, I just need to be rich to be happy.
No, guys, that's not the mindset.
The mindset you need to have is I want to be able to generate enough cash flow to take care of what's important to me in life,
whether it's your family, whether it's your kids,
whether it's whoever else you have in your life,
and then be able to consistently have a sustainable cashflow to sustain that why that you want in life, guys, okay?
I hope that helps.
Take care.
Remember, I always have your six.
