The Secret To Success with Antonio T Smith Jr

Personal Finance 13: You Are A Slave

You Are A Slave

• Are you a free man or are you a slave? (Question posed in the book)
• You are a slave. The system is designed that way.
• The system is designed that way because you are a slave.
• This slavery has nothing to do with the color of your skin or the amount of money in your bank account.
• The only thing your life has come to is are you a slave or are you free.

Chapter Recap from @Grace Sandles 

• Dabasir told the his story of when he was younger and started to owe debts and couldn’t pay them.
• He became a slave to Syria.  
• He indulged and bought stupid stuff when he had money instead of being smart with his money.
• When he was taken as a slave, they were going to make him a Eunic.
• “How can you call yourself a free man if your should has brought you to this?” - This is what the wife asked him.
• He set apart from the other slaves because he was born a free man.
• If you make no effort to repay, you have the soul of a slave.
• Your debts are your enemies.
• The wife allowed him to leave to go back to Babylon and pay his debts.
• The debts were his enemies but the people he owed were his friends.
• Where determination is, the way can be found.

• Money has found its level in you, and that money is equivalent to your slavery
• Dabasir was born a free man like all of us, but debts made him a slave
• Slave has always meant that “I am in debt to the one that lent money, so I owe services until the debt is paid.”
• If you are generating any type of service for income, you’re a slave
• As soon as you take someone’s money, you owe them
• If you have money but have to continue to protect whatever you have, you’re a slave
• New money goal: Have so much money that money’s not even a goal
• “How can you call yourself a free man when your weakness has brought you to this? If a man has in himself the soul of a slave will he not become one no matter what his birth, even as water seeks its level? If a man has within him the soul of a free man, will he not become respected and honored in his own city in spite of his misfortune?”
• How can you call yourself a free man when your harvest says otherwise?
• If you don’t own the pot of gold factory, but you’re flipping the pots, you’re a slave
• “If you want to make six-figures stay a week ahead of people. If you want to make seven-figures stay a month ahead of people. If you want to be a billionaire control the industries the six and seven figure people dominate.” - Antonio T. Smith, Jr 
• You’re never going to make yourself wealthy as a slave
• It wasn’t until Dabasir paid his debts to people that he became a free man
• If you have any money that you have to pay out of your pocket, you’re a slave
• Don’t ever believe in your retirement again

How to Get Out of Slavery

• I will have no other debt that other people don’t pay for
• The goal is to generate income, not make
• There are 3 ways to exist in money:

1. Trade time for money 

• 96% of the world is controlled by 1% of income earners

1. Your money makes money

• 3% of the world is making income get income

1. Multiple streams of income (MSI)

• 1% of the world has MSI that works

Four Ways to Exist in a Capitalistic Society

1. Have a job
2. Be on welfare
3. Be a criminal
4. Be a prisoner (jail)

• Every great country was invented from free labor
• Unearned income is the holy grail of it all in a capitalistic society
• It’s not meant for you to win; it’s meant for you to be a product in a capitalistic society 
• Your job is to be someone else’s unearned income, and the only way to flip that is you making your money a prisoner
• If they can’t put you in jail, they’re going to put you in debt slavery
• They don’t like you educated; they like you entertained

Defending Your Last Name

• Your last name is not your last name; it is your corporation
• You need a financial person in your life to tell you to chill out during bad time
• You can’t chill out if you haven’t put up your defenses properly
• If you don’t know who you are, it’s a blessing, because you now get to decide who you’re going to be
• Wherever God is, that thing is blessed, and whatever God blesses grows
• If your finances aren’t blessed, God ain’t in it
• Your finances is like a 5 gallon bucket of mud
• To clean out all of the mud, it’s going to take 1000 gallons of fresh water, so you can’t get weary

• The Universe don’t bless people by themselves.
• The blessings you try to get by yourself are limited blessings.
• We all need someone to tell us “I’ve been there, don’t do that.”
• Your defense needs to be set up.

• Your real problem is that you don’t know who you are. Your identity has been mistaken. You have been bamboozled. You have been run amok. You don’t know that God ain’t supposed to be broke.
• Be mad at your finances, but don’t take it any further.
• What you do with your anger…….

The Fifth Law of Gold

• Gold feels the man who would force it to impossible earning or who followers the alluring advice of tricksters and schemers or who trusts it to his own inexperience and romantic desires in investment.

• Nice people who are smart are the worst people with money
• Stay away from get rich quick schemes
• You win when you buy and when you sell
• Find an intelligent vehicle for your $1,000/month

1. Every investment on the planet has extra expenses.
2. If you take money out, it’s coming out with a fee.
3. Make sure the fees are reasonable when investing.

• Do it anyway
• You’ve never created wealth from something that didn’t cost too much
• Once you get your money, your job is to move the money.
• If you don’t move the money, you’ll lose the money.
• Have a bigger plan in sight
• Know how much the plan cost
• Go do the research and find out how much it costs to put down (assume 20%)
• Ex: Want to use $1,000/month to get a 10 unit apartment complex
• The cost to put down is $35,000
• It’s going to take 40 months to get the 10-unit apartment complex
• If you have $25,000, put that $25,000 into a vehicle that will yield you money, then take that money along with the $25,000 you already have, use $35,000 of it and buy your 10 unit apartment complex. Then take the remaining $15,000 and put it back into the vehicle to yield more money.
