Bread & Butter

Making money changes your life but it also changes the people, opportunities, temptations and risks around you.

The more money, influence and access you gain, the more you have to protect. From social media and fame to relationships, discipline, marriage and generational wealth, this conversation explores what happens AFTER the money starts coming in and why success without discipline can disappear just as quickly as it arrived.

Because making the money is one thing.

Keeping it is another.

Watch until the end and ask yourself: If success came tomorrow, would you have the discipline to handle it?

05:24 — What happens when you finally make the money?
11:44 — The more successful you become, the more you have to lose
18:25 — Money gives you access—but access can become your downfall
19:33 — Can marriage protect your money and focus?
24:33 — Why self-discipline comes before marriage
33:24 — Big money requires big discipline
37:10 — The lessons you need BEFORE the money comes
