Money Monopolizers Podcast

A lot of people have a strong desire to leave their 9-5s sooner rather than later, but is to soon? Maybe there's something at that 9-5 that you haven't learned quite yet that may benefit you if you do go to run your own business. 

This week marks the 1 year anniversary of our financial freedom celebration and Marlon leaving his 9-5 to pursue full time entrepreneurship!

With every decision in life comes many lessons to learn...

To get to the next level in your life, whether it be financially, physically, or emotionally, you must first go through a phase of discomfort.

This discomfort is a bi-product of shedding your old way of being.

Oftentimes, people choose to stay at their current level rather than pursue the next one because they value their comfort more than the success they could achieve.

But there's a pain of regret that comes along with staying ...

If you lack confidence to make money on your own without an employer, this is the episode is for you.

At the root, people are scared to leave their job or to lose financial stability because they lack the awareness of what skills they possess.

When you have a truly defined skill, and you know what it is, it gives you the confidence to market it to whoever may need it.

Whether it be an employer, a customer, or another company, you will...

If you want to accomplish what very few have, you have to be willing to put forth the effort that very few will.

If your goal is early financial freedom, it's nearly impossible to get there without an intense level of focus for a period of time.

Oftentimes we desire the best that life has to offer but don't understand the sacrifices that come along with obtaining them.

This episode is meant to highlight what it really takes ...

If you're looking for your weekly dose of motivation and inspiration, this may episode may not be for you...

One thing we've learned during our financial freedom journey is that there are multiple vehicles that you can use to achieve the goal.

We've also learned that your personality can strongly dictate which vehicle may be most suited for you.

On this episode, we discuss each of the financial freedom vehicles that we've discovered and share our thoughts on which may be best for you to choose during your journey.

We oftentimes contemplate doing things that would actually be to our own personal benefit, especially if there's no consequence that would need to be paid for not doing it.

On the contrary, we tend towards doing things like school homework, 4 year degrees, and miscellaneous job tasks because we fear the consequences if we don't.

Do you have more respect for your teachers and bosses than you do for yourself?

This is a sh...

When it comes to growing as a business owner, you're going to face multiple cross roads.

At these junctions, you have to decide whether it's worth it to elevate to the next level or plateau and pivot to something else that you feel has more promise.

The con to pivoting is that no matter what venture you go into, you're ALWAYS going to reach a cross road at some point. 

So: are you pivoting because things are getting cha...

When you're on a financial freedom journey, you have to realize that this decision indirectly places you into the 1% of people.

Most people are not in the pursuit of financial freedom and unfortunately will most likely will work until they die. If that's all they have to look forward to, then keep in mind that that will reflect in how they spend their money early into their career.

On this episode, we show you how to go aga...

Do you think you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur?

With entrepreneurship becoming more and more commonplace, it's hard to tell from the outside who's legitimate and who's not really cut out for it.

However, there are certain characteristics that separate wannabe entrepreneurs (wantrepreneurs) from successful entrepreneurs.

On this episode, we discuss 3 main characteristics we've learned from experience that...

You've seen how the journey unfolded. You've seen how our philosophies have altered over the years. And you've seen how we've developed principles and formulas as a result of our experiences.

But, knowing what we know now, if we had to start all over from day 1, would that journey be the same? We were asked this question for #AskTheMomopolizers and decided to dedicate an entire episode to it!

Listen in as we give ...

It's time for the moment of truth! With the economy pending a potential recession, business owners, and other so-called entrepreneurs may be faced with some tough decisions.

As we know, the market fluctuates in cycles, meaning what goes up must come down. But the real question is, are you prepared for when it goes down?

We've been living in an inflated market and times have been good for a long time. Thousands of millionair...

Have you ever had all the information to take action on something but still didn't?

Lots of time, this is characterized as "analysis paralysis". In the midst of learning about a new endeavor, people will tend towards seeking more information as opposed to ever getting started.

The goal of this episode is to come up with the best course of action for those who may not be the fastest action taker but still desire the res...

Here's a question for you: if you died today, what would people say about you at your funeral?

This question isn't meant to be morbid, but rather help you think about how your day to day actions affect the legacy that you're leaving on the world.

Many people wander aimlessly through life with no true purpose to fulfill. So when they pass away, they are soon forgotten. We don't want you to fall into that category! ...

This episode officially marks the 3 year anniversary of the podcast!

If you haven't learned by now, this podcast isa little unorthodox in the fact that a story is told and shown of what it looks like to pursue and achieve financial freedom.

Throughout the past 3 years, we've studied, networked with tons of successful guests, and implemented some of their success strategies into our own businesses in order to arrive at where...

 Why do people go into entrepreneurship? 

Many people will say for "freedom". But most will never experience the true definition of freedom because of the way they approach entrepreneurship.

These people probably would have more freedom if they simply kept their 9-5 jobs and worked till they were 65.

The key to freedom as an entrepreneur is to operate as a business owner, who owns a system that works for them. If you're...

Many people associate Turo with being the only way to be in the rental car business. We've even seen people call it "The Turo Business" instead of the rental car business.

Well our guest for today's episode is no stranger to the rental car business yet has NEVER used the Turo platform.

In this episode, we spoke with Jeff Trills, a rental car fleet owner who's created a niche in the rental car space by re...

When it comes to handling your financial house in your business, most entrepreneurs tend to shy away and just hope that things are going well.

They aren't keeping accurate books and don't even know if their business is actually profitable.

While in ATL we got a chance to speak with Lauren Parrott, a CFO (Chief Financial Officer) who has managed the finances of several multimillion dollar businesses.
