Rashad Bilal

My guests today helped change that.

Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings took financial education and made it part of a culture.

What started as earn your leisure grew from conversations about money into a media platform, an educational ecosystem, and a live event business reaching millions of people.

Today, we're talking about what happens when educators become entrepreneurs, when an audience becomes a community, and whether teaching people how to build wealth can become a wealth-building business itself.

So in that era, what we need are some folks, um, who are brilliant and practical who can talk to us about all of the things.

They are the co-creators and founders of Earn Your Leisure, Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal.

Let's welcome them home.

Hey, guys.

... protect Angela at all costs, please.

Earn your leisure.

I thank God for Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal.

Thank y'all so much for this education.

But the

point I want to make, and Rashad, you can talk about this.

When you have a great partnership, the thing is to not mess it up the first time.

Oh, that's important.

on 4 Friends of the Book Podcast.

So next month, we're diving into You Deserve to be Rich by Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings of Earn Your Leisure.

This book challenges us to rethink our relationship with money, investing, and how to build a lasting legacy.

You don't want to miss it.

Makes no sense at all.

It looks glamorous, but when I get to moving around and you see me, Troy and Rashad, we just look stressed, free and all that.

That's from good decision-making.

Even my friends be like, yo, you could have done...

They label it as the top five stocks of the month, so I'm just going to go with it.

Rashad,

what about you?

The biggest trade-in mistake that I think people make is getting emotionally attached to trades.

Let me do some more research and give you more information on it.

To echo what you said, Rashad, you kind of took my point, but I love that we're all on the same page.

The biggest mistake that people make in their 30s is thinking that you have more time and not realizing that your energy, you're probably as a man going to be at your peak in your 30s and sacrifice your 30s to set yourself up for freedom.

later um a lot of people called me reclusive and stubborn and all these terms but i will say by the time i hit 34 35 i was so happy that i made those sacrifices and i missed out on some things that i wanted to do short term for the life i wanted to live long term let alone by the time i got to 40 i was like whoa out of here so um sacrifice now i'm not saying sacrifice time with your family but a lot of the extracurricular and i know some of y'all gonna be like well you only get one life the other part of that life is very long everyone says yolo you only get one life you only get a limited amount of time And then you meet a lot of people who are in their 50s and 60s with deep regrets or 70s with deep regrets for not planning for the future.

Those are not in the Mag 7, because to me, in terms of tech, they all have a distinct purpose, and they're going to be leaders in that purpose, whether it's from GPU to CPU for AMD, even though that the GPU market is actually increasing, they all play a distinct role.

In Taiwan, I mean, we've covered so many times.

Rashad, what about you?

Well, yeah.

They're playing a weekly.

Rashad, to you, what's your answer?

The biggest mistake is not watching Market Mondays.

5,600 people on the check-in.

But that is the biggest mistake, though, in all seriousness.

Cam going for the home run every time.

Go ahead, Rashad.

All jokes aside, the biggest mistake is not watching Market Mondays because it's a vitally important part of your education, and it's free.

you really love her Do you? A number spiked up real quick.

Rashad, in your opinion, what is the first thing that a person should.

No, no, no. Let's turn it on.

Rashad, you want to do flex or motion?

Oh,

man.

Get

your bag, get your affairs in order.

It's the same with CW.

When I see, when I hear Rashad Bilal say that, oh, it pissed me off to the highest passivity because, and then I see a lot of people giving him a pass saying, oh, he's just venting, he's just upset.

My thing is this, you got 30,000 motherfuckers that came to InvestFest.

You got 30,000 people, 98% of them black that came and you are mad at the two or three or 10 detractors.
