Multimillionaire at 27: You'll NEVER Get Rich Alone with John Lee | 149

The Grateful Podcast with Jack Wagoner Episode 149 with John LeeJohn Lee built a property portfolio in London, wrote a bestselling book, and has amassed 6 million followers teaching people how money actually works. He says he was self-made by 27. What he does not usually lead with is how it happened: he sold his car for $15,000, kept $5,000, and handed the other $10,000 to a stranger for two days of his time.We go deep on the tomato test that separates knowledge from wisdom, why everyone can go to the gym but almost nobody has 10% body fat, the badminton lesson that explains why you cannot fix what you cannot see, what he asks to know whether you are actually aligned with the life you are building, and the one trait he says every billionaire he knows shares. If you have ever worked as hard as you know how and watched it go nowhere, this one's for you.⏰ TIMESTAMPS00:00 — AI gave everyone the Ferrari.
