Summary
What if the reason you're struggling financially isn't your fault — and isn't an accident? In this episode Robert reveals the system isn't broken; it's working exactly as intended. You'll learn why 69% of American adults fail basic financial literacy tests — and who benefits from that number staying high. How they designed schools to produce workers, not wealth builders. Why your house, your car, and your "investments" may be working against you without you knowing it. The three cash flow patterns that separate the poor, the middle class, and the rich.
Robert's the "Point of Choice" — the moment every dollar either builds your freedom or extends your dependency.
