How to Build Wealth — with Codie Sanchez

Defining Wealth

Codie Sanchez shares her perspective on wealth, equating it to freedom and the ability to live life on one's own terms. She emphasizes that while life remains challenging, financial freedom allows for greater control over where and how one works and lives. Codie introduces the "RICH" method from her book, which outlines steps for buying businesses, starting with thorough research to avoid financial pitfalls 1.

The biggest thing is that you kind of get to do what you want to do to some degree and life still sucks. And it's hard in many ways, but it sucks a lot less when you have a bank account that allows you to kind of work where you want, live where you want to and build what you want to.

--- Codie Sanchez

The method progresses to investing wisely, commanding the process, and understanding that initial ventures may not be the most successful 1.

   

Redefining Success

Scott Galloway and Codie discuss redefining success beyond traditional academic and career paths. Codie highlights the importance of recognizing diverse routes to financial stability and success, such as entrepreneurship and small business ownership 2. Scott shares personal insights on parenting, emphasizing unconditional love and the value of time in nurturing children. He reflects on the pressures parents place on themselves and their children, advocating for a focus on love and support rather than stress 3.

The only thing that reliably works out over time, built on a base of love and support, is time.
