Jameson Camp on hitting $1 million: it solves personal money problems but looks tiny next to real estate or VC funding. Money isn't a pile to hoard. It flows. A $10,000 payment circulates back through wages and spending. Speed and movement make a million simultaneously everything and nothing.
The first time I ever saw $1 million in a brokerage account, I was convinced my life was going to fully change, and it did not, because $1 million is nothing, but it's also everything all at once. So you have to understand that it is the first time that you don't worry about how your rent gets paid. It's the first time that, you know, your mom is taken care of. It's the first time that you can sleep well and eat whatever you want at a restaurant. You should respect that. It's important. It's huge. But if you really zoom out, it's very different. In real estate, it might literally be a down payment on a home. In venture capital, it's not even a seed round. For a business to get off the ground. So in context of all this, it is just the starting line, it is not the end goal. So the problem that people have is that they view money as finite, and the reality is that money is infinite. What I mean by that, I mean that people envision like a pile of money that you have to go run to and grab your little piece of before someone else does. But that's not how it works. The way it actually works is I take my $10,000, I pay someone else's business, That business then spends that money again. Maybe they pay it on their employees, and their employees come spend their money on my business. So it's quite possible that my $10,000 comes right back into my pocket. You need to learn to recognize that money loves speed, money loves flow, money loves movement. So a million dollars is both paradoxically everything and nothing at the exact same time. And the sooner that that clicks for you, the sooner it will be easier to get.
