America's 250 with Client Circle Guest Skip

So today we're going to step back.

We're going to take a look at the big picture.

We're going to talk about a lot about safe money strategies and helping you protect what you've built.

But it's hard to talk about wealth without talking about the freedom that makes it possible.

So how did we get here? How did we get to this point? What does it actually mean to have the power to create your own success in America? There are a lot of countries you don't have this kind of freedom.

So let's talk about that journey.

So Steve, the foundation, and we're talking beyond the revolution.

Yeah, you know, Morgan, we often think that America, the story of America started with a battle, but it really started with a mindset.

By 1776, the colonies had already developed a unique commercial spirit that's still alive today.

Back then, they weren't just looking for independence from a king.

They were looking for independence from a system where your wealth was dictated by your birthright.

They wanted everybody to be able to prosper and live the American dream.

So when the founders wrote the Constitution, they didn't just write a Constitution.

They created an operating system for human ambition.

They codified private property rights, the freedom of contract, and crucially, a limited government.

And boy, I like those sounds.

A limited government.

The less the government can impede on our life, the better.

But they knew that if...

The government would allow individuals to own the fruits of their own labors.

You don't just get survival.

You actually get innovation.

And that's how we started, and that's what brought us to where we are today.

Yeah, I like that phrasing.

It's not just surviving.
