Teaching money shortcuts is the most lucrative business ever.

So recently a video of a guy from the US who interviews billionaires recently went viral on my timeline. While watching the video, I was like wow, finally, someone who is living my dream and making crazy money. I'm sure what wasn't just me.

Many people would watch that people and think it was a thing of pure coincidence, that someone out of nowhere woke up, discovered he could interview billionaires and them became rich off of that. Then I clicked one of his videos again and saw an interview he did with Logan Paul, Justin Sun, and a lot of other self-made wealthy people and how he himself confessed to making 10 million dollars a year.

First it wasn't a poor guy, it wasn't someone from nowhere, he wasn't a randomie He's just simply that guy who has grown access, leveraged information, people and resources over a consistent period of time.

A lot of people will look at the success and think it was built in a day. Infact this guy's whole content makes it feels so. He walks by, sees someone and he's like yeah "that Guy is a billionaire, I'll approach him and get an interview" the content projects success, ease, motivation and quick success, and no information about the level of work he's put over the years to actually get there, and that's where how people unintentionally create the illusion that success can be quick, huge or random.

The human mind works based on what we see.

We collect information through the eyes, processes it, make deductions based on these information and these deductions are what forms the perceptions we have.

It's easy to deduce that someone is rich based off what we they make us see, and even if we can look deeper to see more, sometimes we mostly don't choose to..

I have nothing against this guy and his type of contents, I think the idea is to motivate younger people that anything is possible in life, but I think this type of motivation is a two-edged sword. While it is meant to motivate, I also think it's a type of content that is not based on substance.

People learn quotes, learn statements, are asked to read books on how to become billionaires and asked have faith and all, but the truth is that the creators of these shows do not get rich like this, they don't get rich off of reading books.

In the background after the show, they're making more connect, looking for ways to get the number of billionaires, asking them interviews off screen and making the content appear like they just suddenly bump into rich people.

Rich people are someone of the most inaccessible people ever, and they do this for many reasons. The Internet at best is a place for edu-tainment, I meant that type of entertainment that should educate you and that's all.

I grew up watching WWE and a lot of my childhood dreams, knowledge, aspiration and belief was formed based on what I saw, but in the background there was scripts, people, cameras and all that. This is how powerful it is to sell perception.

90% of money information on how you can scale and become rich is lacking in substance and doesn't have details. This is because these information are not real, they're doctored for the purpose of view accumulation.

The reason businesses built on the Internet are so successful is that they know how to leverage attention to sell entertainment, and a lot of these show-businesses are now going extra measures to make sure that their shows are so believable that it makes money. The more believable you are, the more acceptance you get.

Again, looking at WWE, you'll realize it was a big business back in the day, although they're now leveraging on social media to make a lot of money, but do you know that that they could be making insane money if everyone still believed the show was real and they were fighting to the death, Like the shows in the Roman era?

No offense to people building businesses that are actually tailored to motivate and encourage people, I just think these contents are generally misleading and should be treated as educational entertainment which they realistically are.
