🏰 Live like a millionaire

The 4-Hour Work Week genuinely changed my life. I would easily put it on the most influential books I have read in my life, and it is one of few books I have gone out of my way to re-read over the years.

While I am fortunate enough to live a life similar to that Tim Ferriss envisioned - last year I lived mostly in Thailand, travelled to 10 new countries, made more money than ever before, and worked an average of just 8.55 hours per week - one of the biggest lessons it taught me was that I didn’t need to BE a millionaire in order to live like one.

• You don't need to pay $300k to buy a supercar in order to drive one, you can just hire one for the day or race round the track for as little as $50.

  
  

• You don't have to purchase a mansion or castle to enjoy a weekend in luxury; you can rent one on Airbnb or a similar platform for a fraction of the cost, sometimes as little as $100.

  
  

• You don’t need to have generational wealth to enjoy the convenience of a maid or a butler, give yourself permission to pay for a cleaner, VA, or concierge (yes, you can rent those!).

  
  

Being financially rich and having the ability to live like a millionaire are fundamentally two very different things. Oftentimes, financially rich people don’t have enough freedom to live like a millionaire, yet “poorer” people do.

What would make you feel like a millionaire?

People rarely look into what it would actually cost to live like a millionaire.

Sit down to calculate the costs for the things you actually want to do and you will likely find that living like a millionaire is much cheaper than you think.

I am not giving you a blank cheque to blow your money, but I would like to give you permission to spend on some of the luxuries that will make a difference for you.

P.s. my clients often report that, after their investment in me, one of the most stress-reducing investments they make is in a cleaner. We often implement this early, with revenues as low as $2k per month, as having a cleaner frees up so much time and energy.

My clients could always have made that investment, but they didn’t give themselves permission to do something they saw as a luxury. Living poor was one thing that held them back from reaching success. Give yourself permission. Invest in yourself.
