Reading cultivates a wealthy mindset before financial wealth follows. Second, consume purposeful content that enhances money-making skills. Colin suggests watching educational podcasts, videos with experts, and taking notes for retention and application. Influential content creators mentioned include Naval Ravikant and Alex Hormozi. Lastly, hone evergreen and in-demand skills that align with your strengths. These could range from marketing and sales to writing, design, and programming.

    The video starts by addressing viewers' desire to become rich and challenges the conventional wisdom of going to school, getting a degree, and working for decades to achieve wealth. The speaker, Colin, a Yale University computer science student, introduces three habits to achieve wealth more easily. The first habit is reading books, specifically those on business and psychology, which can provide essential financial wisdom quickly. Colin recommends starting with five books that he believes are fundamental for financial success: "The 4-Hour Work Week," "The Psychology of Money," "The Almanack of Naval Ravikant," "$100M Offers," and "Million Dollar Weekend." By reading a book a month, one can gain significant financial knowledge in less than six months.

  • 00:01:41
    step by step all these five books are
  • 00:01:43
    books that I've personally read and I
  • 00:01:45

    smarter than most business people who
  • 00:01:57
    take 10 years to learn that same wisdom
  • 00:01:59
    now the second habit that'll make you
  • 00:02:00
    rich is watching podcasts and videos but
  • 00:02:02
    I'm not talking about watching pointless
  • 00:02:04
    try not to laugh videos that lower your
  • 00:02:06
    IQ I'm talking about watching videos
  • 00:02:08
    that'll help you make more money so some
  • 00:02:10
    specific videos I'd recommend watching
  • 00:02:12
    are how to get rich without getting
  • 00:02:13
    lucky by nval reprogram your mind to be
  • 00:02:15
    rich in 22 minutes by Alex Orosi how
  • 00:02:17
    billionaires think by Sam ovens the one
  • 00:02:20
    person business model by Dan Cole and
  • 00:02:22
    this isn't fun but it makes me 2K an
  • 00:02:23
    hour by Alex Becker now you don't want
  • 00:02:25
    to just be watching these videos
  • 00:02:26
    passively you want to be actively
  • 00:02:28
    writing notes on a Google doc or on your
  • 00:02:30
    notebook go and watch those five videos
  • 00:02:32
    as a starting point and I guarantee that
  • 00:02:33
    it'll change the way you think about
  • 00:02:35
    money and after you're done with them
  • 00:02:37
    you can go and watch other videos like
  • 00:02:38
    interviews with CEOs and millionaires
  • 00:02:41
    like even when I'm in the gym most of
  • 00:02:43
    the time I listen to house or EDM music
  • 00:02:45
    but sometimes I like listening to a
  • 00:02:47
    podcast where I'm just writing notes in
  • 00:02:48
    between sets so you want to be writing
  • 00:02:50
    your ideas down because if not you'll
  • 00:02:52
    probably forget them in the next hour
  • 00:02:54
    now some other YouTubers they'll help
  • 00:02:55
    you become rich of course if you want to
  • 00:02:57
    learn about sales and marketing go watch

    some Alex for mosy content if you want
  • 00:03:00
    to learn more about cold calling and
  • 00:03:02
    agency building maybe watch Charlie
  • 00:03:04
    Morgan and if you want to become a
  • 00:03:05
    billionaire Sigma Chad then there's this
  • 00:03:07
    Asian guy I'd recommend subscribing but
  • 00:03:09
    the point is watch more content that
  • 00:03:11
    will help you improve your life because
  • 00:03:13
    if all you watch is videos on how to
  • 00:03:14
    make money it's almost inevitable you'll
  • 00:03:16
    become super rich now the final thing
  • 00:03:18
    you want to do to become rich is to
  • 00:03:20
    learn skills you want to learn skills
  • 00:03:21
    that are Evergreen and future proof more
  • 00:03:23
    importantly learn skills that match your
  • 00:03:26
    personality are you creative then learn
  • 00:03:28
    writing video editing and this design
  • 00:03:30
    are you charismatic then learn Marketing
  • 00:03:32
    sales or content creation do you like
  • 00:03:34
    building things then learn programming
  • 00:03:36
    software and building online stores so
  • 00:03:38
    when you combine your individual Edge
  • 00:03:39
    and your matching skill you become
  • 00:03:42
    powerful also if you want to become rich
  • 00:03:43
    you want to learn skills that are high
  • 00:03:45
    in demand so for example people are
  • 00:03:47
    always going to need designers so maybe
  • 00:03:49
    if you're very creative you can create a
  • 00:03:50
    thumbnail agency design service for
  • 00:03:52
    YouTubers or maybe you want to master
  • 00:03:54
    the skill of creating aesthetic websites
  • 00:03:56
    having specialized knowledge can also
  • 00:03:58
    make you lots of money for example if
  • 00:03:59
    you know a lot about Fitness and
  • 00:04:01
    Aesthetics then people will literally
  • 00:04:02
    pay you for the information you have or
  • 00:04:04
    maybe all you have is good taste you
  • 00:04:06
    have zero technical skills guess what
  • 00:04:08
    you can still make money Rick Rubin is

    ways that you can make money now what

    about investing in stocks or crypto
  • 00:04:24
    unless I already have a solid skill that
  • 00:04:26
    makes me lots of money if all you have
