Billionaire SECRETS: What Really Sets Them Apart?
00:00:00.000 | you've interviewed a lot of millionaires, billionaires.
00:00:02.900 | What are some of the lessons you've learned
00:00:04.300 | from all those conversations?
00:00:05.500 | - I've also worked for them.
00:00:06.480 | One thing I've noticed is that I think we all imagine
00:00:10.020 | that they're better than us.
00:00:11.780 | And when you actually meet millionaires
00:00:13.540 | or multimillionaires or billionaires,
00:00:15.340 | nope, not really.
00:00:18.020 | And that's beautiful, right?
00:00:19.700 | 'Cause that means that everyone has a chance
00:00:22.100 | to create whatever life they want.
00:00:23.600 | There are gifted people.
00:00:24.480 | Like Zuckerberg is definitely smarter than most people.
00:00:26.940 | Bill Gates who I've worked for is smarter than most people.
00:00:29.100 | Peter Thiel who I've gotten to hang out with a little bit,
00:00:30.620 | smarter than most people.
00:00:31.940 | But there's also a lot of billionaires, Larry Janeski.
00:00:34.220 | I would say he's very smart,
00:00:35.380 | but he's also a pretty normal guy.
00:00:37.140 | Now, I would say some of the things in common between them
00:00:40.580 | is that most of them got rich off one thing,
00:00:42.980 | but all of us diversify.
00:00:44.120 | It's actually counterintuitive.
00:00:45.140 | They're like, "Diversify, diversify."
00:00:46.180 | But they only really got rich one way.
00:00:47.860 | It's either real estate or it's tech.
00:00:49.700 | Outside of inheritance, it's almost exclusively one thing.
00:00:52.420 | They stick with it for extraordinary long periods of time.
