Episode #485

Everyone wants to know how to get rich. And here’s the truth: getting rich might be much easier than you think. While most people would assume the wealthy grind their way to success, this isn’t always the case. In fact, rich people are FAR lazier than you think, and we’re not saying that in a bad way. Rich people make money while they sleep, so they don’t HAVE to work harder every day. Want to know how you can do the same? Vivian Tu, AKA “Your Rich BFF,” will show you how!

Vivian grew up with super-saver immigrant parents who taught her the value of money. When she went off to college, she realized a whole new world of wealth existed—this was only multiplied when she became a Wall Street trader. Vivian saw the fancy suits, the designer bags, and the jewel-studded bracelets and realized that these “rich” people were doing something most people didn’t know about. After her friends and coworkers wouldn’t stop asking her for financial advice, she decided to take her knowledge to the masses.

In her new book, “Rich AF: The Winning Money Mindset That Will Change Your Life,” Vivian details what the rich do that you (probably) don’t. These habits of the wealthy can change your life and upgrade you from the position you’re in now. In today’s episode, we talk about the tools you can use to get rich, why you’re playing real-life Monopoly all wrong, and how rich people think to build wealth even when they’re not working.
