I am $1.2 Billion in Debt, Here’s What Banks Don’t Want You To Know About Money

insulin resistance, diabetes, blood sugar, weight loss

In this video I share why understanding and using debt strategically can be the ultimate financial game changer. This isn’t about reckless borrowing—it’s about leveraging debt as a tool to generate wealth.

We start by going back to 1971, when President Nixon took the U.S. dollar off the gold standard, transforming money as we knew it. Today, every currency—whether the U.S. dollar, peso, yen, or euro—is debt. Yet, mainstream financial advice often tells you to live debt-free, and while that’s safe for most, the wealthy play a different game: using debt to build assets that produce cash flow.

I’ll explain the core principles of financial literacy, using my experience and the concepts from Rich Dad Poor Dad and the Cashflow board game. We’ll cover why buying liabilities like cars and houses with debt keeps you poor and how using debt to acquire assets makes you richer over time. Financial literacy starts with understanding two key words: cash and cash flow.

      Ignorance is not evil.

      However, when you see a post in which an individual is telling others to do their own research, that point of view is evil, as those who constantly post that statement, will not take the time to share key words, or the websites they used to do their research.

      Just because one used google on January 1, and found specific information, does not mean that same information is going to still be findable on February 1.

      Videos get taken down on YouTube all the time, and google owns YouTube. Therefore you ought not to expect the information will always be findable on google.

      “Knowledge is not power.
      The only thing that gives you power is action. Tony Robbins.”

      Actually, it’s both together.
      It doesn’t matter how much action you take, if you are taking the wrong actions, it will end in failure.
      Only when action is directed by the knowledge of the proper action to take to solve a problem, will the problem be solved.

      Look at it from the standpoint of taking a road trip.
      You come to the highway and GPS directs you to head north, so you head north. Then it instructs you to go east, so you go east.
      The problem is that the city you want to go to is south west.
      As long as you’re heading in the wrong direction, you won’t reach the city you want to go to. In addition, all the energy you are expending by going North East, is a wasted energy.

      Don’t just take action. Make sure the action you are going to take will enable you to achieve the goals you have in mind.

    Bank won’t lend me jack. I know how to use debt and it’s free money. But the bank wants collateral. I have no car, no house. They don’t believe I will pay my little 3k credit card. They tell me, they’ve heard it all before. I need collateral even with 800 credit score and no bills. They want to see income without the loan. which is almost nothing. I wish I could have debt, I would pay it back early to go bigger.

    • @abbahcarter says:

      You need to show them that you have cashflow if you want them to give you money, and if you’re financially educated, creating cashflow from nothing is gonna be easy for you, for example if you show the bank a business you have created from nothing that generates cashflow of 1million dollars, they will lend you 2million or even 3million, its same thing as pitching to an investor, you must make them believe you can create money flow otherwise they won’t give you their money, who do you think the banks are ? Institutional professional investors that’s the name of any bank

    • @jimflask1164 says:

      @@abbahcarter Yeah. I tried that. She looked right in my eye and said “I just fill out the form”. I have history of borrowing against my own little account. I fixed my credit doing that. These people are the equivalent to fast food workers. If they knew what they were doing, they would own the bank. I don’t need the debt, its just an accelerator. But I learned an excuse to buy a Cullinan. I’m borrowing against it. I’ll show those bank tellers an asset. You can count on it.

    Where can you store your gold and silver?

    • @alejandroph69 says:

      If you mean physically just like Scrooge McDuck, find or create a place to store it, and good luck locking it.
      Gold and silver are treated as commodities too (along with other uses in production), acquiring them is the same story as for buying/selling stocks, cryptos, currency, etc. They are stored (if) in a special Bank, If all the certified owners want to sell at the same time and grab the metals physically, the latest transactions won’t get to touch them on their hands, the difference is that gold and silver are limit (without requiring electricity) meaning they are guaranteed to go up in value little by little through time even when “their price” fall, why? It’s not a bubble, it’s world money (as long as this belief remains in world population). Now that’s what I think.

    Use the cashfliow from the LLC to add to your personal assets. If that LLC goes belly up your assets arent connected to the LLC. So that 1 billion debt is funny money, its what you do with the cashflow is what matters.

    Excellent video but Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!
