KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Money is a neutral tool: Money is not inherently good or evil, but rather a means to make transactions and exchange value between people. It is like a knife that can be used for good or bad purposes depending on how it is wielded.
• Money amplifies who you are: If you are a kind and generous person, having more money allows you to do more good and help others. Conversely, if you are selfish or irresponsible, having more money will only amplify those negative traits.
• Beliefs about money shape your relationship with it: Your beliefs about money, whether positive or negative, greatly influence your financial success. If you believe that money is evil or hard to come by, you will struggle to acquire and keep it. It is important to change negative beliefs and adopt a positive mindset towards money.
• Learn from successful wealthy people: Seek advice and insights from successful and wealthy individuals who have achieved financial success. Read books, listen to podcasts, and surround yourself with people who have a positive relationship with money. Avoid taking money advice from those who are not financially successful.
• Education and action are key: Take the initiative to educate yourself about money, investing, and building wealth. Invest in your own financial education and take action every day to improve your financial situation. Money is a tool that can empower you to make better choices and help others, so it is important to actively work towards financial success.

BEST MOMENTS

"Money is neutral. It's not good, it's not bad, it's like a knife that cuts bread or stabs someone. How you use it, or how you get used by it, that's the interesting part to me." 

"Money isn't good. It isn't evil. It's just neutral. What it actually is, is kind of an amplifier. As I said before, it just amplifies who you are."

"Don't take money advice from poor people." 

"People who talk about money in that kind of way, people who tell you that money isn't important, don't have any money."

"Get yourself a financial education. I spend thousands of pounds every single year on my own education because education is way cheaper than ignorance."
