A short multi-speaker transcript (YouTube) documenting a personal transition to reading books and seeking knowledge to improve financial outcomes. Speakers describe growing up without role models who made substantial income, discovering books and libraries as primary information sources (pre-internet), deliberately paying for and acting on knowledge, and using feedback from action to learn.
You made that transition to reading books and all that kind of stuff. What caused you to read the books? How did you know to read the.
Books were the information?
I didn't know anybody had money where I come from.
I didn't know anybody made over 50 grand a year in their life.
I can't ask them how to make 100 grand. They didn't know how to.
If they did, they'd be doing it.
So I was like, I just started.
Reading books and getting around people that are actually doing stuff and listen a book. This is library days. This wasn't online days.
So I just said, what do you do?
You go where.
The information and knowledge.
Is to learn it.
And I was willing to pay for it, give every dime I had to.
Get it and thank God books existed. But most importantly just action on the information I was consuming.
Just to get out there.
Learn go do. Learn go do.
Just feedback.
Of implementation is very powerful.
