This week, Ben and Bergs dive into one of the most important (and least understood) topics: how the financial system really works and why most people get left behind.

From Ben’s banking frustrations to why holding cash is a slow bleed, they unpack how the system is built to benefit institutions, not individuals. They explain the mechanics of inflation, compound wealth erosion, and why putting money in the bank isn't just unproductive — it's dangerous long-term.

You’ll also learn how top investors and business owners structure their wealth to outpace inflation, reduce tax, and build real wealth.

Key Takeaways:

- How tax-efficient structures can double your investing power

- Why understanding money is more important than working for it

- The system is rigged, learn how to play the game, or lose by default
