Rich People Lied About the Journey
Rich people tell you “money doesn’t matter” after they already made it. But when you’re broke, building, selling, grinding, and trying to win, money absolutely matters.
In this interview, Grant Cardone breaks down why too many mentors, too much advice, and conflicting success philosophies are keeping people confused, weak, and stuck. If you’re listening to everybody, you’re probably executing on nothing.
Grant goes straight at the problem most entrepreneurs, salespeople, investors, and ambitious professionals are dealing with right now: information overload. One person tells you to avoid debt. Another tells you to use debt. One person says build a brand. Another says save money. Another says enjoy the journey. Meanwhile, your bank account is not moving.
The lesson is simple: pick your target, find people aligned with that target, and stop taking advice from people who are not where you want to go.
This is about money, mentorship, mindset, business growth, sales psychology, investing, scaling, leadership, financial freedom, and the discipline required to stop consuming and start executing.
Watch this if you’re serious about success, wealth-building, entrepreneurship, and becoming the kind of person who does not need permission to win.
In this video, you’ll learn how to:
* Eliminate conflicting advice that creates confusion and kills execution
* Choose mentors based on your financial targets, not popularity
* Study billionaires, CEOs, and high-level operators without needing access
* Build a success mindset around money, scale, power, and responsibility
* Stop romanticizing the journey before you have earned the destination

Uncle G! Always talking truth.
Uncle OG!!! 💪 😎 ❤
Uncle OG my mentor for years now.
Who are you still listening to that has not built the life you want?
Uncle G, LRH
Parents!
I do have a question. For someone with less than $100,000 to invest, How would you recommend we enter the market. I’m looking to study some traders and copy their strategy rather than investing myself and losing money emotionally.. What’s your take on this approach???
Getting a financial advisor at a brokerage will do, bc it means professional investment management, trading services, weekly reports, and no extra fees. Not for beginners alone-but it saves you from YouTubers nonsense and daily hopium
I’d recommend Melisa M Lloyd since she always gives market analysis and tips that are really helpful.
Big thanks to Melisa Mae Lloyd ~ really appreciate her. she’s honestly one of the smartest and most supportive mentor I’ve ever learned from. Her mindset and the way she explains things really helped me a lot
Yeah, financial advisors could make a lot of difference, particularly in a market such as this. Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 950k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of transfer in this downtime if you know where to look. I have been using an FA since 2019, and I return at least $321k ROI, and this does not include capital gain.
You’re spot on. I actually made the switch to a momentum-heavy strategy a couple of years back after my self-managed portfolio started lagging. I was holding too many “stable” large caps that were essentially dead money. Melisa helped me transition into a mix that included XMMO and some high-conviction growth plays. My account went from roughly $250k to over two million in less than two years just by staying on the right side of the trend.
Uncle G is always honest no fluff BS
Excellent perspective on mentorship: don’t collect opinions—find someone aligned with your goals and study them deeply. Success comes faster when you replace confusion with clarity, focus, and decisive action.
Where can I buy the GRO82H
Last time you mentioned GRO82H coin, please make video about it.
Sometimes the best trade is just holding your GRO82H and doing absolutely nothing through the noise
HYPE and GRO82H are this year kings. Thank you for making my day with your POV
Added to my GRO82H position today. If it drops more I’ll add again. Not complicated.
Strong hands holding GRO82H, that’s always a good sign
Is GRO82H still usable? I wanna have some of that
So GRO82H could really go x80? I’m not ignoring that upside
Picked up my GRO82H at $0.3 already running to $1. Life saver!
True OGs knew to scoop HYPE and GRO82H early, that’s just facts
I’m 38 and finally retired, making $28k every two weeks. But truly, having a supportive family through it all is the real blessing. Thanks for the extra motivation today!
SAME HERE, IT’S EASY TO GET A BIWEEKLY PAY OUT LIKE!!!
Still pinching myself. In just about a month, my friend and I managed to raise $350K to get our venture off the ground. A massive thank you to Lynn Carol Baker for guiding us through this transformation. Going from drowning in debt to finally settling into my dream home and driving a reliable new car is a feeling I can’t even describe. Just a reminder to keep the faith, trust the journey, and never give up.
Wow 😲 Lynn carol Baker
Reading that name I remember these are good times atleast for me 😅, when first 200k is like taking a step out my front door😊 people around me then think I’m in to drugs lol
