3. 15 Images Every Investor Needs to Memorize

Passive investing is a subject matter that I am passionate about. The reason is because the vast majority of working class people stay out of the public markets because they don't understand them and they are afraid of them. But hoarding your money and not investing is the best way to stay broke.
I can vividly remember a conversation I had years ago. I was in the phone pit at one of the call centers I worked at. A guy named Dan was showing me his stocks and I told him about how my father lost a chunk of money that he invested into U.S. Airways after 9/11.
At the time, what my dad knew about investing was the same as everyone. "Buy low, sell high", right?
Buy low sell high is the worst investing advice you could ever listen to, because buy low sell high gives you the illusion that you know what low and high are.
After 9/11, many of the airlines went out of business, including U.S. Airways, which was where my Dad put his investment. However, the airline business as a whole got through it and continued to thrive and grow. So what does that tell you?
It tells you that no one knows anything.
I don't say that as hyperbole. I say it quite literally. No one, not a single person in this world, has any idea what the stock market is going to do. Everyone, even the worlds best experts in public investing, are guessing at best.
So what does that mean for you?
It means that your best option is to invest in the market as a whole as opposed to trying to pick stocks that are winners and bet against stocks that are losers. There's no point in doing it any other way, because over a long enough timeline, the market as a whole will always outperform individual stocks and funds
Here's what you do.
Create a weekly or monthly investment automation and then ignore it. Literally pretend like it doesn't exist. Every week, I invest $500 into the S&P 500 and I never look at it. You need to let compounding do the work.
If you automate your investing and hold onto it. You will outperform all of the investment experts.
It's a statistical certainty.

4. How to Create Digital Products (Bootstrapper Members Only)
Do you want to make $10,000 a month in “passive income?”
It’s more doable than people think.
$10,000 a month equals about $333 a day. If you have a digital product at $199, that means you only need to sell 1.67 products per day to make $10,000 every month.
This napkin math looks great. But how do you actually create a product that can get you to $10,000 per month?
We’ve talked about how to productize your services at a high level, so today we’re going to cover the nitty-gritty of how to actually create a digital product.

6. Jack Ma's Ant Sees Profits Fall 17%
This is crazy.
For years, I've been arguing that The United States is still the best place to be and the best bet in regards to building a thriving economy and society. I've also been arguing that China is a bad bet. This is exactly why.
Investors will run from China. Why would anyone put money into a market that risks the government coming in and shutting it down?
This article is critically important to understand why (I think), long term, The States will continue to be the world's shinning beacon on a hill.
We're not perfect. (women's rights? ahem). But the process of destruction and self correcting that is embedded into our culture will prove once again to be the best system there is.
If autocrats can take Jack Ma's money, they can definitely take the people's money.
Lesson: Invest in America and contribute to the self correcting mechanisms that help us form a more perfect union.

LFGOOOOOO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Seriously though, this is exactly why I'm confident in myself. It's not because I'm special. It's simply because I know that 99% of the people I compete against aren't willing to be consistent like I am.

10. Final Thought - "Nice and Easy"
I was in Boston last week. As you know, Jules is still up there with our little man so that Juliana's parents can watch him while she gets through this intense semester of school work.
We spent a few days at my brother in-laws house. He lives in Sandwich, which is on Cape. (Did I say that right)?
For the few days we were there, I realized how exhausted I was. Something happened when I got there, and I gave myself permission to relax.
I sat out by the pool. I chilled in the hammock and read my book. I even took a nap. ME! A freakin nap!
I'm back in Nashville now and I am back in grind mode. Jules is in Boston for another 2 weeks and I am committed to keeping my routine in check and keeping myself in line so that when my family returns, they will come back to a home that is clean and inviting and they can fall right back into their own routines.
I feel good. That rest and relaxation was exactly what I needed. It felt good to be able to do nothing.
But guess what? Rest and relaxation time is over, and I am back to fucking shit up.
Love you guys. Talk to you next week.
