This episode is all how to cultivate a "Millionaire Money Mindset." Wealthy people look at money differently, and you'll need to change how you view and manage your own finances if you want to join them.
Lifestyle Inflation Is A Good Thing – Lifestyle inflation isn't always bad. If you use your wealth to make your life more comfortable, or to invest in unique and memorable experiences, that's a great investment.
Things kick off with an update from Chase, who just closed a huge deal for his new media company that helped them smash their entire Q4 goal within the first month. Then, the boys share five lessons they've learned on their path to consistently having seven figure years.
Tune in if you want to learn how to "think like a millionaire" and start using money as a point of leverage instead of treating it like a scarce resource that needs to be hoarded.
“They say money can't buy happiness, and that's true, but money really does solve most problems to a degree. If you think about all the problems you have in your life, there is almost certainly a way to pay someone to solve it."
– Mason
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT:
Momentum In Business And Life – We need to accept that life and business are both roller coaster rides – they always involve ups and downs. When you're having a good month, it can be easy to coast, but that's when you need to keep pushing, because it's really hard to get momentum going from a full stop and there's always a down cycle coming right around the corner.
Build Your Mental Resilience – Taking the occasional L is part of being a business owner. You can't let it keep you down, though. Use it as fuel to get creative and seek out opportunities to turn a short-term loss into an even bigger long-term win.
Why Settling Is Selfish – A lot of people think it's selfish to try to get right, but the real selfish play is to stop when you have "enough." It's great to take care of your personal needs, but putting a ceiling on your income means you can't invest in the communities and causes who need your support the most.
Build Your Team Of Experts – If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. The sooner you realize it's better to spend the money to pay a subject matter expert instead of managing everything yourself, the sooner you'll unlock your business' true earning potential.

In this episode, Chase and Mason discuss what makes the difference between “big” businesses and “HUGE” businesses, and lay out some of the common traits they’ve observed among the top 1% of founders.
They also tell stories of their best “money well spent” scenarios, where the value they got from the product or experience was exponentially more than what they invested. Spoiler Alert: The examples they share aren’t the ones you’d expect.
The conversation wraps up with a quick business update from Mason, who finally decided to take ads seriously and is now on track to have his first $1M month.
Tune in to get a sneak peek at Mason’s new penthouse pad (it’s absolutely baller) and drop a comment with your own best “money well spent” story.
"I think number one is just like the entrepreneur is hungry and they're hungry not for a base hit, or even a double – they're hungry for a home run or a grand slam. And they’re going to keep swinging until they get it."
– Chase DimondWHAT YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT:
Factors for Big Business Success – Learn what separates big businesses from HUGE businesses, and what common traits, tendencies, or behaviors make these ambitious founders uniquely capable of building such behemoths.
Best “Money Well Spent” Scenarios – Hear examples from the boys about things they’ve paid for that have returned 10x more than they spent. These aren’t your common investment examples, but lesser-known products, services, and experiences that are worth every penny – and then some!
Buying Clout – If you have more money than you know what to do with, you’re probably going to default to acquiring material possessions. That’s all well and good, but the boys are here to tell you why investing in relationships, not objects, is a better use of that money.
Paid Ads Success – Learn how Mason started experimenting with paid acquisition and is already seeing a significant ROI, which has him on track to have his first seven figure month by the end of the year.
Audience Monetization Mastery – Many creators have huge audiences, but it doesn’t translate into significant revenue for their business.
