About this listen

 Today, I am diving deep into a question that’s on everybody’s mind right now—should billionaires even exist? In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the wealth gap, social mobility, and the hidden mechanics that are driving massive inequality in our world. I’ll walk you through the shocking numbers, break down how our financial system is really rigged, and reveal how asset ownership and inflation are tilting the game in favor of the ultra-wealthy—without you even realizing it. If you’ve ever wondered why it feels impossible to get ahead, or if you’re looking for real answers about how to protect yourself and build true wealth, this episode is for you. We’re talking about the roots of capitalism, how government policy and money printing drive inequality, and why trying to fix things with short-term, top-down solutions just makes it worse. My promise: By the end of this episode, you’ll understand not just how billionaires are made—but what you can actually do to turn the odds in your favor. This is the episode I wish someone handed me years ago.
