| 0:00.0 | I'm going to share with you the rules of money that made me so rich that I questioned the meaning |
| 0:04.0 | of making money. These controversial rules are what allowed me to go from broke 22 year old to a |
| 0:08.5 | multimillionaire today. Some of these rules I picked up on my own during my 27 year career as an |
| 0:13.1 | entrepreneur and others I learned from some of the highest net worth individuals you probably know. |
| 0:17.6 | So these are the nine money rules of the top 1%. Welcome to the Martel method. |
| 0:21.8 | I went from rehab at 17 to building a $100 million empire and being a Wall Street Journal best |
| 0:27.3 | selling author. In this podcast, I'll show you exactly how to build a life and business you don't |
| 0:32.5 | grow to hate. My bestselling book, Buy Back Your Time is out now. Grab a copy at buybackyourtime.com or at any of your |
| 0:39.5 | preferred online retailers. The first rule is to act your wage. It's not your salary that makes you |

| 1:05.5 | decided to call my little brother Moe and say, hey, come ski on the West Coast. I'll cover everything. |
| 1:10.3 | And for about a 10-day period, |
| 1:12.1 | we lived a lavish lifestyle. We stayed at the nicest hotels. We paid for everybody's drinks. We |
| 1:17.4 | ate at the finest restaurants. I bought him new gear. And at the end of it, he went back home and |
| 1:22.6 | talked to my dad. My dad calls me up and he goes, Dan, I heard about your trip. Did you put any money aside for |
| 1:28.8 | taxes? No, I thought that was my money. No, Dan, you got paid that gross. You need to pay taxes. |
| 1:35.9 | Essentially, half of that money wasn't even mine. And that's the moment I realized I needed some help. |
| 1:40.0 | So I ended up hiring an accountant and he put me on payroll. And then that way, I lived off of what he gave me. |
| 1:45.6 | The rest of it was being saved in my business account and I didn't get the two confused. |
