Why I’ll Skip Selling Courses and Focus on Owning Billion‑Dollar Companies

0:00Do you ever get people that think you're a fake guru? >> I'm super transparent about my intention. I'm here to absolutely make money, but I just don't need most people's money. We have 16 companies in the portfolio right now. My equity stake is probably worth, I don't know, 5, 10-ish million. How many thousand-dollar courses do I have to sell to do that? A lot. Like there's a cap to how much money you can make if that's the game. So for me to get to a billion, I'm not going to get there selling courses. I have to own something that's worth a billion. The reason I have the book, it's 99 cents and like so many people from like Bangladesh and like Pakistan, like they can buy the book and they're like get all these thank you messages, which is cool. Part of the reason I'm doing it this way is cuz like I kind of want to prove a point, which is that like you don't have to play the game the same way. And so everyone gets a little bit of goodwill and they try to monetize. But if you can just deposit and deposit and deposit, and then you just keep proving it wrong, then that doubter actually ends up becoming your biggest fan.
