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. Guys, in 2024, what I'm seeing now on social media, and mind you, this has come from an old school millennial that wasn't on social media for the past eight years before April of 2020. The fastest way you can actually become a millionaire in 2024 is by actually getting a J-O-B. Sorry to break it to you guys, but yes, just getting to work. Okay. And I'm going to share a little bit of story, how working as a cop, working a regular nine to five job, I was able to leverage that and go ahead and save money. So now I'm able to go ahead and invest

into my side hustles and then ultimately break free from what you guys would like to call the matrix. Okay. Now, two things you guys have to realize that it's either going to take time to build a business or you're going to need the capital, the money to actually invest into the business. So when I was working as a cop guy, here's my plan. All right. Yes. I wanted to get my dream home. I wanted to get my dream car. I wanted to become financially free. But it wasn't until the very last two years of my law enforcement career where I really started investing into what I could possibly scale for myself to make me residual income. At the end of the day, you guys

want to go ahead and make sure that you guys focus on residual or passive income to break free from working active income all the time. As you guys know, I was working anywhere between 80 to 100 hour work weeks. I had to figure out a way to make my money work for me so that I was able to reduce my workload, which is what I did with my first business that had to do with ATMs. Now, investing into ATMs is what allowed me to become financially free. Did it make me a multimillionaire? No, it didn't. Multiple businesses and investments made me a multimillionaire. I was already a millionaire before I invested into ATMs because of my net worth. So on paper, I was a millionaire. With that being said, guys, it allowed me to reduce my workload. Then I got into digital marketing, which then I learned how to be an expert digital marketer.

And from there, I was able to go ahead and invest into multiple businesses, become a founder of three different companies, employ over 60 people, and now officially become a multi-millionaire after all this hard work. But here are a few key takeaways that you guys can learn from this podcast that will actually help you. And actually, it makes sense, okay? Because I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I know what common sense is. And guys, if you follow these instructions, you guys are going to be able to go ahead and build your wealth as well, okay? Get a job in either one or two things. Number one,

sales. In sales, you're able to work for commission. So if you work on your sales skills, meaning soft skills, you're able to articulate, you're able to get clarity, you're able to talk to people. Guess what? Your salary is uncapped. You can make as much money as you want right now. Right now, my employee, people as young as 20 years old, hey, if you're 18 and you are a hard worker, come talk to me. I want to hire you. And one of my youngest employees, he was able to make like $40,000 a month off commissions. Guys, think about that at 20 years old, crazy, right? But he works his ass off. He works like 18 hours a day. And you got to think about it. It is a short sacrifice. So you can build generational wealth for the future. Okay.

So staying disciplined is key here, guys. Now, I, on the other hand, worked five years, 80 to 100 hour work weeks. And then I wised up to start making my money work for me. Okay. For many of you that have that luxury that you have over time, unlimited overtime, like I did, or you don't have a job like that, I recommend to go apply for a job like that. Fastest way to do it is if you have a decent work experience, you're able to talk to people and you're looking for an adventure. Become a first responder. Why not? And that's what I did. I came from corporate America. I was a sales manager. I worked with talking with people and I completely transitioned. I never went to the

military. First time working for a paramilitary job and I was able to do it, guys. I actually excelled quite good in it as well. So hope this helps, guys. This is the way you can escape the matrix. It's very simple steps, but I love to offer you advice on a daily basis, as you guys know. And if you need any more advice like this, make sure to stay tuned to my future episodes.
