This is me asking a first class passenger how they got rich.

You see, I was traveling from London to Miami first class, which cost me about six thousand dollars, which got me thinking, what do these other first class passengers do for a living that enables them to afford these luxury tickets?

But unfortunately, it didn't all go to plan.

What is it you're doing?

Right, here's the plan.

I've just booked some first class tickets for me and my cameraman, Tom.

These tickets come with free lounge access, where you can enjoy delicious food, take a nap on the comfy day beds, and even freshen up with a shower in the spa area.

But unfortunately, we're not going to be doing any of those lovely things.

Instead, we're going to use this time to interview as many people as possible.

The sacrifices I make for you guys, I could

could be enjoying a nice complimentary massage instead.

But there's one major flaw to our plan.

Places like this are very secretive, which means if we get caught filming, it could have serious consequences.

As soon as I entered the lounge, a guy in a sparkly outfit caught my eye.

So I headed over to have a chat.

He explained that he used to own a jewelry store that he recently sold for a nice amount of money.

So how did you start out in business?

Because that's always a key question a lot of our viewers ask.

I worked for six independent companies with four or five shops.

And what did that give you by working for multiple people?

Experience.

And I opened a shop in Stamford.

I mean, I say to a lot of people, gaining experience is better than necessarily gaining qualifications.

What would you say about that?

Getting experience.

You've got to love what you do.

You've got to love it.

I couldn't agree more with this.

I don't have any qualifications.

I actually left school when I was sixteen and became a millionaire in my twenties.

This isn't to say college and university is pointless, but in most cases, experience often steals the spotlight from qualifications.

There's a brilliant quote from Sylvester Stallone that sums this up perfectly, and it goes something like this.

The only purpose of a college degree is to show your potential boss that you turned up to class for three to four years in a row, completed a series of assignments,

reasonably well and on time, so if they hire you, there's a semi decent chance you'll show up every day and not mess their business up.

Things were starting to get really tense in the lounge.

I could feel the staff constantly watching us, so I knew our time was limited.

What advice would you give to any youngster nowadays starting out?

Well, I think the one piece of advice is save.

Don't spend your income, but if you can avoid it, make sure you put money aside.

So live within your means, for sure.

Well, yeah.

This conversation really hit home for me.

I've seen multi millionaire friends lose it all in an instant, and others whose lives are controlled by debt.

But saving is just one side of the story.

You need to invest.

This graph shows the growth of ten thousand dollars invested in the S&P Five Hundred Index from January, one thousand eighty to December, two thousand and eighteen.

The person that invested and kept their money in the stock market, without drawing it out, actually made the most money.

Personally, I would invest in accounts like a Stocks and Shares ISA in the UK and a Roth IRA in the USA.

These accounts are so powerful as they allow you to grow your money over time for retirement tax free.

It's so important to ensure that the platform you use for investing has something called automated investing.

So the money is just taken from your account and you can forget about it.

Investing platforms have started implementing smart advisors operated by AI.

Think of it like a service that can develop an investment portfolio for you using the information you provide about your personal needs, such as financial goals, risk tolerance, and so on.

Personally, I really like Webull as they offer everything we just discussed and so much more.

I was just about to interview a guy that worked in financial technology, when my cameraman, Tom, got a tap on the shoulder, and it took a very serious turn.

Our names were taken, put on record, and we were ordered to stop filming.

Honestly, I felt like I was a criminal.

Apparently, by speaking to people in the lounge, we had broken their privacy rules and regulations.

If we were caught filming again, there would be a devastating consequence.

They would terminate our tickets and still charge us the full amount.

The cheek of it!

For the next hour, we sat in the lounge, planning our next move.

The staff were all watching us like hawks, and we knew if they saw us even raise a camera, it would be game over.

Fortunately, we were able to board the plane without any further issues.

Never gonna stop, you're never gonna give you up.

Once we were airborne, it was time to take the risk and film more interviews.

And you know me, I love a risk.

So I've managed to snag an interview with Curtis Tilbury from the Strike It Big podcast.

Anyway, Curtis, how do you make your money?

Well, obviously the podcast is a big part of that, but I run a production company that owns various different shows on YouTube.

So what is your network currently at?

It's over a million.

I have about thirteen people working for me at the moment, so yeah, no, it's a good business.

How did you actually build that business out?

Where did it all start from?

I started making free videos for lots of different people.

Hang on, hang on.

Did you say free?

Well, you didn't charge people.

No, I didn't.

At the start, when you're trying to build your skills as a videographer, which is what I was, no one really trusts you and doesn't really want to pay you.

They haven't seen what you've done.

So you have to build up a portfolio.

So I did everything from wedding videos to shooting club videos.

So how do you go about going from a very small startup

giving away free content to actually having people on your staff, as it were, being a real company.

It's all about niching down, and then when you niche and become an expert in your field, you can charge more.

Lots of people think that by doing everything, you have a much wider market.

And although this is true to some extent, would you rather be operated on by a surgeon or a GP?

I can guarantee that you chose surgeon.

But why?

Naturally, we feel safer in the hands of an expert.

And this is the same across all aspects of life.

So my advice on how to become an expert would be, number one, find your niche.

You need to find a niche that has demand, which you can add value to.

Number two, gain practical experience.

Try to experience different areas within your chosen niche to gain a wide range of skills.

Number three, continuously learn.

You need to stay updated with trends and developments within your niche.

Don't be late to the party.

And number four, build a professional network.

There's one thing better than being an expert, and that's being an expert with expert friends.

The staff was starting to take notice of us filming, so I quickly began chatting to a very interesting man who set foot in America with just forty dollars in his pocket and became rich by starting two different businesses.

What would you say to your younger self, if you were starting out again, to gain, say, the wealth and the great life that you've had so far?

Risk management may be the most underrated issue in business for entrepreneurs.

Risk management.

Everything has risk.

Yes, of course.

and it's understanding those risks and mitigating those risks where you may not have the knowledge base or the experience.

The fear of failure is a huge problem in today's society and it holds many people back.

Just think, if someone can come to America with just forty dollars in their pocket and become a millionaire by taking calculated risks, then why can't you?

Honestly, if I hadn't taken the leap

to quit my job and start my own business after being bullied by my manager, I wouldn't be wealthy today.

All my millions can be traced back to that one big risk.

Here in the UK, six out of ten people fear taking risks in life.

But why?

Well, two thirds worry about the consequences, while the other third fear the possibility of failure.

This shows that most people have the tendency to play it safe and avoid stepping into the unknown.

But consider this, playing it safe could be the biggest risk you ever take.

Before I could interview anyone else, I received the dreaded tap on the shoulder from the air service manager.

He asked to speak to me at the first class bar.

To my surprise, he wasn't annoyed.

Quite the opposite, he was interested in being in my video, so I thought I could do a little digging into the types of customers he looks after in first class.

So we get celebrities, we get a lot of business customers, and then we have people that are maybe new money, they might win the lottery and things like that.

What sort of age group do you get in the first class?

Again, it varies.

You have so many entrepreneurs nowadays as well, but they're very, very young.

You'll see them up there at completely broad age range.

It's really cool to hear that there are more and more young entrepreneurs flying first class.

According to the New York Times, major US airlines are expanding their fancy seats by to to.

But why is the demand increasing?

Well, one of the main reasons for this is that making money online has become incredibly easy.

you can now make a living from all sorts of online opportunities.

By the way, I'm running a totally free challenge to help you earn an extra two K this month.

It's all going down on my Discord server where we have regular mentoring calls and you can even win awesome prizes like a trip to Dubai with a friend.

I'll leave a link in the description.

We landed in Miami, and I spent the week meeting up with some great people like Patrick Bette David, Luke Belmar, Grant Cardone, and Ben Marler.

But the most exciting for me was John Fox.

He invited me to a private airport to fly one of his planes.

I must admit, I did hesitate a little.

I hadn't flown a plane for around fifteen years.

Not only was this guy a plane expert, but he was a pro flyer.

And I was worried I wouldn't be as good as I was when I last flew with him,

over thirty years ago.

What piece of advice would you give to a youngster nowadays if they wanted to own a beautiful aircraft like this?

Go out there and try everything you think you want.

Try everything you think you're going to love and try some of the things that you don't like and you'll surprise your inner heart and something will spark and then follow that path.

I think that's very sound advice, my friend.

I'm going to certify that.

Did you get that?

With that said, it was time for me to pursue my passion and take to the skies.

Evaluating the risks was the last thing on my mind.

Flying planes is what sets my soul on fire.

And deep down, I knew that if I didn't seize this opportunity, I would forever wonder, what if?

You gotta give all you got, gotta give all you got for love.

Absolutely fantastic.

I'm a bit emotional actually to be honest.
