A short YouTube monologue by Adam Sand recounting a childhood memory of growing up in a rural, low-income home where his mother bought business and parenting audiobooks. He describes listening to authors such as Anthony Robbins and Kevin Trudeau, says his parents' financial ups-and-downs and their divorce motivated him to prioritize financial security, and invites viewers to comment.
We didn't have a radio where I lived as a kid. We lived so far in like the country and my parents couldn't afford to buy me like music and on tape. But my mom did buy a lot of business books on tape, parenting books on tape. And I used to listen to these books and it just seemed like so exciting. I remember as a kid I was listening to Anthony Robbins, the Popcorn Report, Kevin Trudeau's Mega Memory Courses, different things about business. I just found it fascinating how happy my parents seemed when business was good, money was good, and how unhappy they were. My parents got divorced was probably when I really decided money or financial security was be a primary motivator for me. Comment below this video with your thoughts.
