Hannah Hammond realized that saving from her paycheck wouldn't work: half went to taxes, Social Security, and 401(k) contributions. So after engineering school, she stopped trying to save and started learning how to make more money instead.

I would say the most pivotal decision that I made when it comes to money is learning how to make money instead of learning how to save money. When I got out of engineering school and I got my first paycheck, half of the money was gone immediately to Social Security and 401 and taxes. I knew that I was never going to be able to save my way into the wealth that I wanted to create. I had to learn how to go create the wealth.
