Most people don’t stay broke because they’re lazy or stupid — they stay broke because they never learn the game.
If you want different results, you need to stop playing by the same broken rules society shoves down your throat.
Here’s why most people stay broke — and exactly how you can break free.

1. They Spend Everything They Make

Income = lifestyle for most people.
They get paid, they ball out, they scrape by until the next check.
Escape Plan:
Treat your paycheck like a wealth-building tool, not a ticket to spend. Save first, spend second.

2. They Chase Status, Not Freedom

New car. Designer shoes. Flexing on Instagram.
Meanwhile, their credit cards are maxed and they’re two missed paychecks from disaster.
Escape Plan:
Forget impressing strangers. Stack assets, not liabilities. Real power is financial freedom, not fake flexes.

3. They Avoid Learning About Money

Schools don’t teach it. Most parents don’t either. So people wing it — and crash.
Escape Plan:
Become obsessed with learning about personal finance, investing, and entrepreneurship. The more you know, the more options you have.

4. They Think “More Money” Is the Answer

“If I just made more money, all my problems would go away.”
Nah. If you’re bad with $40k, you’ll be bad with $400k — just with bigger toys.
Escape Plan:
Fix your habits and mindset FIRST. Then more money will actually help you, not hurt you.

5. They Fear Risk Too Much

They’re scared to invest. Scared to start a side hustle. Scared to fail.
So they play it “safe” — and stay stuck.
Escape Plan:
Calculated risks build wealth. Staying in your comfort zone guarantees staying broke. Bet on yourself.

Final Thoughts

The system is designed to keep you broke — working, spending, staying quiet.
But you don’t have to play their game.
Learn the rules. Stack your money. Own your time.
Freedom isn’t given — it’s built.
