He walks through five of them: finding a career mentor, joining a mastermind, stacking complementary talents, removing routine decisions with systems, and committing to lifelong learning. His argument is that becoming more valuable is what makes the money side work. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://chrisreining.com/5-investments/ Quotes to ponder: "Living below your means so you can save, and then investing those savings." "You see, it's not only about investing in things like stocks or real estate, it's about investing in yourself." "This way you're spending what you have left after investing, instead of investing what you have left after spending."
