@lucyhinds27: These are the rules they didn’t teach us in school. The ones I actually used to retire at 37 with five rentals and a paid-off home. Save this. 👇 WHAT NOBODY TOLD ME 1. Earning more doesn’t make you wealthy. The gap between what you earn and what you spend does. 2. Lifestyle creep is how people with great incomes end up with nothing to show for it. 3. The Joneses are broke. I checked. We are not keeping up with them. 4. The boring path: rentals, low spending, wide gap, actually works. Nobody talks about it because it doesn’t sell courses. SPENDING 5. I never let my spending catch up to my income. Not once. 6. I never bought something to signal success to people I don’t care about. 7. I’m not cheap. I just decided my money had better things to do. If you’re still reading, you’re already thinking differently than most people. Keep going. 👇 REAL ESTATE / INCOME 8. I never bought a property and hoped it would work out. The numbers said yes before I signed anything. 9. My rentals don’t care if I sleep in or take a Tuesday off. That was the whole point. 10. Five doors later, my tenants pay my bills. I just supervise. MINDSET 11. Retirement is a number, not an age. Mine was 37. What’s yours? 12. I stopped trying to look rich and started trying to be free. 13. Nobody knew when I became a millionaire. That was also the whole point. WHAT I DON’T DO 14. If I can’t explain it to myself in one sentence, I don’t touch it. 15. I don’t do subscriptions I have to think about canceling. I audit them every month. None of this was taught in a classroom; all of it is learnable. Follow along and I’ll show you exactly how to use it. DM me GAP and I’ll send you my free gap calculator. Find out the difference between where you are and where you want to be. That number is where everything starts.
