People always ask on here how I was able to build money so aggressively at a young age. So I'm gonna explain you guys the exact simple concept that I use. So I do something called triple compounding. And if you've never heard of it, I'll break it down. Outside of just having stock market investments, I actually have three things compounding at the same time. First sector will be over is income. There are a few ways you can boost your income, but I'll start out with the first method that I use, which was just fighting to work as many hours as I could and trying to get a raise. So my first ever job was at Chick-fil-A, started off at complete minimum wage, $11 an hour. I pretty much just did whatever I could to get on the schedule more, take people's shifts. After about a year of working there, I decided to just look for the highest paying job that I could possibly get while still in high school. So I started applying at the nicest places around me and specifically jobs with tips. If you're looking to boost your income in the most simple way possible, I'd highly recommend those methods because it does add up over time. Whatever you can do to work more, get a raise, or just job hop. Then the next level up from that, the best thing to do is to learn a valuable skill. Obviously, if you guys watch me, you know one of the big things I learned about is investing. Trying to boost my actual income, so I've been studying hard on high ticket sales. Ultimately compounding my knowledge and income. The second layer is actual stock market investing. Keep my investments pretty simple for the most part and just let compounding do its thing. Just want to show a quick example. Let's say from 18 to 60, you invest $300 a month and an average annual return of 10%. That'll come out to about $2.3 million. However, if you really go hard on layer one and are able to up your investments to $1000 a month, you could instead boost your annual return from 10 to 11%. Your annual return could instead be $10.7 million. The one point I want to make here though is income is the most important step. It's gonna be way easier if you're making more money. Then the last sector of triple compounding is investing in yourself. Mindset and just how you feel about yourself could arguably be the most important layer of this. I did not have really strong discipline. I would have probably blew through this money and never even built this portfolio. I purchased $13,000 of Google just after my 19th birthday. I could have easily blew this money on something I wanted, like a Rolex, but instead I decided to buy Google. That one decision, factoring in the opportunity cost of holding onto it for only one year is the difference between $30,000 and my net worth today. People think that getting rich is 90% mental. Go to the gym, buy some nice clothes, go network, read some books, whatever you got to do, invest in yourself as well. If you can stack these three up and not forget the most important part to stay consistent and keep going for the long run, you will go far in life.
