To view this email as a web page, [click here]() [IWT Header] {NAME}, The wealthy behave in curious ways. Here are a couple recent examples: Alexandre de Betak is a world-famous fashion show designer. But his passion outside of work is [designing homes for his family](). A few years ago, he finished a design for a loft in New York ⦠complete with a hidden party room. What!? Recently, he finished remodeling a 17th century hôtel particulier in Paris. He combined four separate units on three floors in order to create another dream home. This home also includes a basement nightclub, featuring a night-sky mural that includes star maps of each family memberâs zodiac constellation. Or have you heard about the ultra-wealthy creating [custom Rolls-Royce cars]() ⦠for more than $13 million? For that price, theyâre able to work start to finish, from design to clay model to finished product, to create a car customized exactly for them. One guy worked with Swiss watchmaker Bovet 1822 to develop a custom watch that would fit in a customized housing on the dashboard that prevented interference from vibrations or the carâs antenna. Another owner created a customized fridge that automatically cooled the ownerâs preferred champagne to the preferred temperature ⦠in exactly the amount of time it took for the car to arrive at the place he likes to drink it. These are great examples of how the wealthy use their money to create custom experiences tailored to them. They go beyond just buying a multimillion-dollar home in the Hamptons or a Ferrari and build something exactly for them. Hereâs another favorite example of mine â but this time, from the dark side. This guy left a comment asking for advice on his spending. He listed all his financials, openly showing his income ($205,000/year working as a consultant), and he posted in a forum for consultants, asking for advice. Now, in a consulting forum where many consultants earn a lot of money, youâd think this would be a simple question. NOPE! Here come the pitchforks⦠"Jesus Christ, dudeâ [Jesus Christ, dude] "Your budget is a bullshit guess" [Your budget is a bullshit guess] "You need to change your perspective" [You need to change your perspective] Ugh. No wonder wealthy people hate talking about how they really spend their money. America loves the idea of the wealthy â but they hate hearing about real numbers and real spending. Itâs easy to scoff. But Iâve found itâs a lot more fun â and profitable â to be curious about the wealthy. (BTW, we also hear a lot about systemic inequality and billionaires evading their taxes. Those are legitimate problems, but my focus with IWT is helping you live a Rich Life. In other words, when someone talks about billionairesâ low tax bills, my response is: âI agree thatâs a problem. Letâs focus on your own finances: Have you maxed out your 401(k)?â) Where do you go if you actually want to understand how the wealthy think? Or how to create real, sustainable wealth? [Not really. Until now. Keep readingâ¦] Not really. Until now. Keep reading⦠In America, the only discussions allowed about money are FRUGALITY and GUILT. Our favorite thing is to see someone become incredibly wealthy... ...but spend like they have no money. Like Warren Buffett, billionaire investor, who still lives in his 1958 house in Omaha. (We'll just ignore the fact that he has a private jet.) Or the millionaire who still flies economy. How down to earth! (We'll just ignore his $9,000 suit.) People love to quote The Millionaire Next Door, which showed how surprisingly modest millionaires truly are (for example, they tend to drive older cars). That was great, but people twisted the findings to support their worldview â the one that says the most virtuous people are multimillionaires who choose to live like theyâre poor. Guys, your neighborhood millionaire is not living like a pauper, eating rice and beans and hoarding 95% of their income for some far-off day in retirement. Donât lie to yourself. No, most millionaires donât walk around wearing chinchilla coats. But they're also not only wearing cheap pants and eating at Chili's. âMoney changes people...â
OF COURSE IT DOES Does money change people? YES. AND IT SHOULD! The truth is, money enables you to live a Rich Life â one thatâs bigger than you ever dreamed. Instead of judging the wealthy, itâs far more productive to ask: What do they DO differently? What do they spend on? And, most important of all, how do they think differently? So that's exactly what I did. - First, I started at the heart of the matter â identifying and overcoming invisible money scripts. You can't be successful if your "financial programming" is sabotaging you every step of the way. - Then I expanded into more advanced topics on how the wealthy think. How do they build their wealth, how do they make money decisions, and how do they think about spending money without all the guilt and baggage and confusion that plagues most people? - And finally, I put it into action to design a Rich Life. Now, I want to share all of it with you. Back in 2009, when I wrote the first edition of my book, I forgot to include details about psychology. I provided tons of tactics, but what I discovered was that until you master the deep money psychology, the tactics won't help. Since then, Iâve [updated my book]() with psychology and invisible scripts about money. And I've started talking about these taboo topics. Like prenups, which I [discussed on the Tim Ferriss podcast](). I want to shine a light on these secretive topics. (Maybe you'll get a prenup, maybe not â that's not the point. What's important is that we should talk about these things out loud.) Today, I want to go even further. I want to take you into the world of the wealthy. I want to peel back the veil and talk about things wealthy people won't talk about publicly. How they think about spending. Specific examples of abundance. Where they spend their time. I want to share everything I've learned about unlocking your financial potential and building your own Rich Life. Iâve packaged everything I've learned into my Wealth Triggers program.
