Most people are stuck in a system designed to work harder and not smarter. We're here to expose the strategies, the loopholes and the life hacks the 1% use. This is universal basic knowledge.
So what is universal basic knowledge? So this is a term that we literally just created. But the thesis behind this idea, this ideology is that a lot of people don't have information. They don't. That if they did have that information would essentially completely live their lives in very different ways. I've seen this time and time and again and I've been fortunate enough in my life to be essentially wired in this way. And my goal is to essentially provide these concepts, these strategies, these loopholes, these hacks to you. And if you don't know who I am, my name is Dan Navias and I'm the founder and CEO of Bode Mobile. I've been an entrepreneur ever since I was a 15 year old kid where I was selling Polo Ralph Lauren jackets out of the outlet mall, thinking outside the box and using my employee discount to get a little bit of startup capital to start what ultimately became the rest of my career, which is being an entrepreneur and starting a new company. Our company has facilitated over $350 million in earning savings back to consumers, in many cases everyday people that are really struggling to make ends meet. I myself have been able to help raise over a hundred million dollars for companies. We've had over 45 million people around the world use the services that we utilize. Many of the strategies that we're going to go over are things that I apply to my own life and if I'm not applying them to my own life, to apply them. Because our goal here is to provide this knowledge for people and whether you're barely at making it by, you're, you're barely making ends meet, you're living paycheck to paycheck or you're crushing it. You're a $10 million, $100 million net worth entrepreneur, you exited your company, it doesn't matter. Everyone wants to live to the next level of what's possible in their lives. And so what universal basic knowledge is, is not a course on, hey, here's how you're going to make money and we're going to teach you all this stuff to make money every single day. It's really about, hey, here's a framework to think about. Here's a bunch of different unique things that people like. Whether it's travel, whether it' driving a car, whether it's, you know, everyday consumer habits, whether it's you know, whatever it might be, tax loopholes, It's a way to think. And this content is made for all types of income ranges, lifestyles, and our goal is just to provide value added content for this community that enough people in my life ask like, hey, where can I learn more about this? And so the goal was like, hey, how can we start a project to really create content for these people that can scale? And so that's the idea behind ubk. And hopefully you enjoy universe based knowledge and join our free community to learn more.
