The Habit That Separates Rich From Broke

from The Playbook · host David Meltzer, Entrepreneur.com

In today’s episode, I sit down with Daniel Mac for a wide-ranging conversation on building wealth, investing with intention, and staying grounded as success scales. We talk about interviewing nearly 10,000 people, asking for help as a career shortcut, and why betting on people often matters more than betting on ideas. I share how I made my first million in nine months during the early internet days, what real estate, secured assets, and calculated risk look like now, and why technology from crypto to AI changes productivity without changing values. We also cover family, failure, gratitude, and making better decisions that actually last.
