Welcome back to another episode of the Building Your Money Machine Show! Today, I’m cutting through one of the biggest myths about money — that earning more is the answer to financial freedom. If you’ve ever found yourself running on that earnings treadmill, making more but still feeling stuck or stressed, this conversation is for you.

I break down the one rule every truly wealthy person follows, and it’s probably not what you were taught. It’s time to stop chasing paychecks and start building PEACE OF MIND. In this episode, I walk you through the “Affluence Cash Flow Matrix” — the exact framework I’ve used with clients to help you shift your focus from income and expenses to building a money machine that works for you.

You’ll learn why high earners are often just a bad month away from financial chaos, and how to escape the fragile treadmill of the earnings trap. Plus, I share real-life stories — like my client Mark earning $400K a year, living large, but still broke — and reveal how to move your money onto the right side of the matrix where freedom is found.

IN TODAY’S EPISODE, I DISCUSS:

• Why earning more doesn’t deliver freedom
• The Affluence Cash Flow Matrix
• The Wealth Priority Ladder
• The life-changing power of building your money machine
• Important stats on investing habits
• The ONLY money rule all rich people follow
• How financial freedom is measured in time, not dollars
• Download my free Financial Freedom Number Calculator
