What's going on guys? Welcome back to the Jeremy Scott Fitness podcast and radio show.

Coming to you real quick tonight on a topic that I feel like I'm an expert on.

I can speak on and something that is very important to me that I feel I have a grasp on in my life and I have for many years because I've seen the full spectrum of things run its course.

And if any of you guys are out there like in the rat race and the rat race and the, you know, financial, economical hustle, you know, trying to get stuff and titles and status. I'm not saying don't go hustle and do your thing. I'm all for that. But you can't make it just about the money. And that's the title of today's podcast, is don't make it about the money. And I've talked about this before in my books and in previous podcast if you guys

have been long time listeners take it from a guy who you know when I moved here 10 years ago

I didn't have enough money to buy a song on fucking iTunes man I had no discretionary money

I literally would walk to the grocery store once a week with $20 for the entire seven days.

And I would buy tuna, oatmeal, eggs, and maybe like Powerade Zeros or something so I could

have some flavor other than just plain ass water. And that's what I would eat for the entire week.

And I know people think like, oh, Jeremy, you're exaggerating. That seems dramatic. If you want me to connect you with the people who worked next to me for an entire year, I ate tuna and oatmeal mixed together in the same bowl three times a day, every fucking day for the entire year. Because I had no other choice, you guys. That's how I was living. I say that to give you the backstory of this today. I sit here talking to you over 10 years later, having worked basically in excess of about 100 hours per week every single week for the last 10 years. And I have more money today than I ever thought I have in my life. And it's not even close. Like an unimaginable amount that I thought a little ghetto ass kid like me could ever make

who really had you know no skills and and really didn't know what the fuck you want to do with his life 10 years

ago I say that because money doesn't buy you absolute happiness it just doesn't now I have

you know nicer shit now and I have more freedom and I can eat at nicer restaurants and stay at nicer

places but it doesn't make me internally happy and I'll dive into that in a eat at nicer restaurants and stay at nicer places, but it doesn't

make me internally happy. And I'll dive into that in a second. But I want to kick you a Bob Marley quote here

that I think is amazing. And I heard this a long time ago and it's always stuck with me. And the quote, and I quote,

money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.

Bob Marley, end quote.

And I've touched in this or all, you guys, but I need to be clear where money fits into, you know,

my life and your life on the success ladder.

Life can't just be about money.

And I'll say it again, your childhood dreams do not revolve around paper with the photos of dead presidents and fucking famous people on it.
