play00:03

What about the book we are sharing today?

play00:05

It records a person who was born into a poor family.

play00:07

The story of how to build wealth quickly

play00:10

The name of this book is "The Book of Navarre".

play00:14

Who is Navarre?

play00:15

He is a man who immigrated to the United States from India

play00:18

Born in 1974

play00:20

Immigrated to the United States at the age of 9

play00:22

At first he could only work illegally because his status was not high

play00:26

There is no money at home

play00:28

He has the keys to his house hanging around his neck

play00:30

Walking around New York every day

play00:32

Public security in New York is not very good

play00:34

So his mother stipulated that he could only go to the library

play00:37

He runs back and forth between the library and his home every day.

play00:41

Later he was admitted to an Ivy League school

play00:44

Then start a business successfully

play00:46

Become a famous entrepreneur and investor

play00:49

His most impressive investment performance is investing in Twitter and Uber

play00:53

He is a wealthy man who already has wealth and freedom

play00:56

He is also a person who likes to think very much

play00:58

So he often expresses his views on life on Twitter

play01:03

As a result, these views quickly became popular

play01:06

Many young people are forwarding his feelings

play01:09

Because his feelings always hit home

play01:12

Hello, welcome to Yilin Study

play01:15

A good book every day

play01:16

Take you on a journey of dual upgrades of thinking and wealth

play01:20

How to have wealth?

play01:22

First of all, making money is a skill

play01:25

You must learn this skill to make money

play01:28

If you don’t know this skill

play01:29

Instead, he spends all day at home thinking about how to get rich overnight.

play01:33

it's no use

play01:34

What are the skills to make money?

play01:37

sum it up in one sentence

play01:38

It’s about “productizing yourself”.

play01:41

Can such a simple sentence be a way to make money?

play01:44

Of course, there are two key words here:

play01:47

One is called self, the other is called productization

play01:50

What does "valuing yourself" mean?

play01:53

You have to find your own uniqueness

play01:55

Nowadays many young people cannot make money

play01:58

It's because they always want to be similar to others

play02:01

If others take the certificate exam, follow suit;

play02:03

If someone else has this diploma, he will also get it;

play02:07

If someone else is opening this store, he will also open a store.

play02:10

So always just follow

play02:12

There is no chance

play02:14

But if you really want to make money

play02:16

You have to become different from others

play02:18

find your true self

play02:20

Uniqueness is very important

play02:22

What is "productization"?

play02:24

Productization is about finding the leverage effect

play02:27

Able to magnify your abilities

play02:29

For example, you are a teacher and give lectures every day

play02:32

No productization

play02:34

You can only make money by giving lectures

play02:36

So this is not called productization

play02:38

but

play02:39

If you turn the lecture content into a software

play02:42

When it becomes something that everyone can download and register an account to listen to

play02:47

This is called productization

play02:49

You need to keep asking yourself in this life

play02:52

As you pursue wealth, keep asking yourself two questions:

play02:56

The first question is

play02:57

Is this something I really want?

play03:00

This is related to your search for yourself

play03:03

The second question is, have I achieved productization?

play03:06

If these two problems are solved

play03:08

you can make money

play03:10

What is the essence of money?

play03:12

Money is an IOU issued to you by this society

play03:15

What does it mean?

play03:17

You have contributed to this society

play03:19

What does this society give you in return?

play03:21

It cannot give you something back immediately

play03:24

That's called bartering.

play03:25

It returns you a piece of paper, which is money

play03:28

The more you contribute, the more rewards you will receive

play03:31

Therefore, money is an IOU

play03:34

When you realize that money is an IOU

play03:37

Do you know what to do?

play03:39

That is, you have to create enough value for this society

play03:43

This society will give you enough IOUs

play03:47

What is wealth?

play03:48

What happened to wealth?

play03:50

Wealth and money are two different things

play03:52

Navarre said that wealth comes after sleeping

play03:55

It can still give you something that continuously creates money.

play03:58

For example, a house can be regarded as wealth

play04:01

Because the house is available for rent, you fell asleep

play04:04

You can also earn income from it

play04:06

Therefore it is considered wealth

play04:08

The equity of a company can be regarded as wealth

play04:10

If you own part of a particularly good company,

play04:14

even if you fall asleep

play04:15

This company is still running

play04:17

it will bring you wealth

play04:19

High-tech things, company shares

play04:22

This is an asset

play04:23

You have a patent, it’s an asset

play04:26

If you have a patent in your hand

play04:28

You can charge royalties

play04:29

For example, others charge two cents for one use.

play04:32

Or you wrote a song

play04:34

This song is on the website

play04:36

Others charge 10 cents or 20 cents for each download.

play04:38

this is wealth

play04:40

Everything we can see on the market now

play04:43

They are all high-tech products from the past

play04:46

so

play04:47

Navarre believes that we must pay attention to the latest technology

play04:50

Only technological things can bring new products

play04:53

Let’s take an example – plastic bags

play04:55

Everyone may think that plastic bags are not a piece of technology

play04:58

Weren’t plastic bags high-tech when they were first born?

play05:02

That is the high technology of chemical industry

play05:05

If you could build a factory to produce plastic bags back then,

play05:08

That will definitely make you rich

play05:10

Because no one can produce plastic bags

play05:12

only you can

play05:13

How did Li Ka-shing start his career?

play05:16

Li Ka-shing started his business selling plastic flowers

play05:18

This was a high-tech product back then

play05:21

It’s just because high technology has a process of dissemination

play05:25

As dissemination becomes more widespread

play05:27

High tech is no longer high tech

play05:28

So I can’t make any money

play05:30

Therefore, if you want to make money

play05:32

You have to always pay attention to high-tech and cutting-edge things

play05:35

Pay attention to how to apply this thing

play05:38

How to find talent?

play05:40

We talk about "finding your talent",

play05:42

Just how can you be yourself

play05:45

What are some ways to accumulate expertise?

play05:47

First, you need to know one thing

play05:49

Navarre said: “Expertise cannot be taught

play05:52

but can be learned

play05:54

"Many people tell you very firmly

play05:56

You can make a fortune by taking this course

play05:59

It's impossible to make a fortune just by taking a course

play06:02

Can a person get rich?

play06:04

There are a lot of accidental factors

play06:06

It’s definitely not something you can learn by just taking one class.

play06:10

Navarre said something particularly pertinent.

play06:13

These business skills cannot be taught

play06:16

There is no way to teach you how to make money in college.

play06:19

why?

play06:20

Because if I could teach you for sure

play06:23

I can teach it to everyone programmatically

play06:25

And if I could program it and teach it to everyone

play06:29

Then this thing must be worthless

play06:31

Just like producing plastic bags

play06:33

Producing plastic bags can be taught

play06:36

Because this is a production method

play06:38

everyone can learn

play06:40

If everyone in society learned to produce plastic bags in batches

play06:44

Learned to produce cement in batches

play06:46

Learned to bake bricks in batches

play06:48

All kinds of businesses that were very profitable back then have become unprofitable now.

play06:53

Therefore, business skills cannot be taught

play06:56

But why can it be learned?

play06:59

In the same classroom at university, the same lectures are being taught

play07:02

But the students taught are all kinds of

play07:05

Some people think this university is worth attending.

play07:07

can learn a lot

play07:09

In fact, this is not what the teacher taught him

play07:11

He learned it himself

play07:13

We can listen to classes and study

play07:15

But don’t rely on listening to lectures and studying

play07:18

Listening to lectures and studying only brings us an inspiration

play07:21

Let's broaden our horizons

play07:23

find an opportunity

play07:24

Will it succeed in the end?

play07:26

It depends on whether your own brain reacts

play07:30

And have you tried hard?

play07:32

Only if you work hard enough

play07:34

Just a chance to get lucky

play07:36

This is a secret to success

play07:39

on becoming oneself

play07:41

No one can compare to yourself

play07:44

How can I be different from others?

play07:46

The answer is to be yourself

play07:49

on being yourself

play07:51

No one can compare with you

play07:53

And if you just want to be someone else every day

play07:56

That's no use

play07:58

In the book "The Amazon Chronicles"

play08:01

What does Bezos mean by entrepreneurship?

play08:03

To start a business, there is no way to go.

play08:05

If you see others doing this, stop doing it

play08:08

You have to find your own path

play08:11

and

play08:11

Find ways to do things in the areas where you are most passionate

play08:16

Rather than just focusing on who pays the highest salary

play08:19

Do you know what I get in exchange for "who pays me a high salary"?

play08:22

This is exchanging time for money

play08:24

Trading time for money means you have no wealth

play08:27

Because as long as you don't spend this time

play08:30

you won’t get income

play08:32

Although you exchange time for money, you can support your family

play08:35

But you can never become a financially free person

play08:39

Because as long as you don’t work, you won’t have any money.

play08:42

So, where does one’s expertise lie?

play08:45

Personal expertise must belong to the edge of the field of knowledge

play08:49

You've reached the edge of your profession

play08:51

Keep testing on this edge

play08:53

Finally made something new

play08:56

This is the passion that comes from within us

play08:58

The most important skill for getting rich is to be a lifelong learner

play09:03

Teachers in universities, even PhD supervisors

play09:07

It is impossible to bring you to the edge of knowledge

play09:09

You must walk slowly and alone to the edge of knowledge on your own

play09:14

Become a lone warrior

play09:16

Then you still need to keep thinking

play09:18

keep exploring

play09:19

Finally can go out

play09:21

Navarre said that whether it is wealth

play09:24

Or interpersonal relationships, or knowledge

play09:26

You have to remember one thing - compound interest

play09:29

Compound interest works, so take the long term

play09:33

in the field of knowledge

play09:34

Compound interest can work

play09:36

The more books you read

play09:38

It will be very relaxing when you read the next book

play09:42

This is the compound interest effect at work

play09:44

At the level of interpersonal relationships, at the level of knowledge, and at the level of wealth

play09:49

You have to believe in compound interest

play09:50

and take a long-term view

play09:52

Because the effect of compound interest cannot be seen in the short term.

play09:56

But in the long run it's a miracle

play09:59

So whether investing or making friends

play10:02

We all need to take a long-term view

play10:04

There are two focuses on taking a long-term view

play10:06

First, personal reputation is very important

play10:09

If you have no personal reputation in society

play10:12

Then you won’t be able to use the various levers we’ll talk about later.

play10:16

What is leverage?

play10:17

You have to hire people, that’s leverage;

play10:20

You need to borrow money, this is leverage

play10:23

But who will the money and people follow?

play10:25

You must go with someone with a good personal reputation

play10:28

If you have a bad reputation, people won't be able to hire you.

play10:31

Can't find any money

play10:33

So what can we do to gain more leverage?

play10:37

You have to learn to take responsibility

play10:39

Why do some people only like to work?

play10:42

If you ask me to move bricks, I will move bricks. If you ask me to write PPT, I will move bricks.

play10:45

I will write PPT, you just need to pay me

play10:49

The fun part about working is that you don’t have to take responsibility

play10:52

Even if the company goes bankrupt, I have to clear my salary first

play10:56

Because I am a vulnerable group

play10:58

but

play10:59

If you are not responsible, you will never gain leverage.

play11:02

We have talked about the method of productizing ourselves before.

play11:05

One is to find yourself

play11:07

One is the leverage effect

play11:09

What are the levers?

play11:11

roughly divided into three categories

play11:13

The first one is called labor leverage

play11:15

Just like the industrialized production of Ford Motor Company

play11:18

Just be able to hire a lot of people

play11:20

These people become the lever that magnifies the company's wealth

play11:23

This is called labor leverage

play11:25

The second type is called capital leverage

play11:28

For example, I have a friend who is a fund manager

play11:30

Fund managers must have a high reputation

play11:33

When he said he was willing to help others manage their finances

play11:35

Someone will give him billions

play11:37

He can raise billions to help others operate it

play11:40

This is called capital leverage

play11:42

Both require a good reputation and the ability to take responsibility

play11:47

There is a third thing that many people don’t realize

play11:50

It is a carrier with zero marginal cost

play11:52

This is also leverage

play11:54

Includes things like code, media, books, records, and patents

play11:58

Although these things do not seem to bring revenue as a company

play12:02

But it is a lever that can help you infinitely magnify

play12:06

How did Bill Gates do it?

play12:09

Bill Gates relies on writing code

play12:11

He turned all DOS systems and Windows systems into software

play12:15

Keep copying until marginal cost is zero

play12:18

That is, its production cost is almost zero

play12:21

How does a writer make money?

play12:23

A writer writes a book that can be copied without restriction

play12:27

If you can sell 10 million copies

play12:28

Selling 100 million copies is a huge lever

play12:32

These three types of leverage can help us magnify our wealth

play12:36

Why does Navarre encourage us to take responsibility?

play12:39

He said

play12:40

Because failure is not as scary as you think

play12:43

A great invention in the business field in human history

play12:47

It’s a limited liability company system

play12:50

The limited liability company system promotes the substantial development of market economy

play12:54

In the past, many people did not dare to start a business

play12:56

Because once you compensate, you may have to compensate for the rest of your life.

play12:58

What if the business fails?

play12:59

You might even have to repay the debt from your father and son, and then you won’t be able to get over it.

play13:03

Later, everyone simply set a bottom line

play13:05

It's over when the company loses all its money.

play13:08

You can take back your personal wages, dividends and other assets

play13:11

After having this guarantee

play13:13

A large number of entrepreneurs have emerged

play13:15

This is to use institutional creation to design an anti-fragile graphic.

play13:20

Why is starting a business a good deal?

play13:22

Because entrepreneurs are guaranteed to lose money

play13:25

Once the company loses all its money, it's over.

play13:28

This is a limited liability company system

play13:30

Navarre believes

play13:31

If you are particularly worried about taking responsibility

play13:34

Then you are likely to live with money anxiety your whole life

play13:39

Because you don't dare to try

play13:41

In fact, after you go bankrupt

play13:43

Is this result that serious?

play13:45

Our society still has certain protections for bankrupts.

play13:49

Not like those dramas everyone watches

play13:51

For example, the "Merchant of Venice" that everyone has watched,

play13:54

At that time, debtors had to go to jail.

play13:57

It is even possible to cut off the flesh from the body to pay off the debt.

play14:01

Today we have no debtors' prisons

play14:03

Even if you are in debt

play14:05

You're bankrupt and your reputation is damaged.

play14:07

But you still have a chance to start over

play14:10

so

play14:11

Navarre says you have to be able to learn to take responsibility

play14:14

How to find leverage?

play14:16

The first way to find leverage:

play14:18

Don’t follow the trend, find love

play14:20

No matter what you do

play14:21

We should all aim at the thing itself

play14:24

rather than aiming for money

play14:26

Navarre said: “The less you desire something, the less

play14:29

The less worries

play14:30

The less obsession

play14:32

On the contrary, the more you will let nature take its course and follow your heart

play14:35

You will do it in the way you are good at

play14:37

Keep doing it unswervingly

play14:39

The quality of work will also improve as a result...if society can train you

play14:43

Then one day, society can also write code

play14:46

Replace you with a computer

play14:47

"

play14:48

If you want to do bulk goods

play14:50

You want to do something similar to others

play14:52

Then someone else will take your place

play14:54

Because you can do it effortlessly

play14:56

Others can do it without any effort

play14:58

In the end, no one makes any money

play15:01

to get economic returns

play15:02

You need to provide what society needs

play15:05

But something that cannot be obtained

play15:07

Schools can’t teach us business skills

play15:10

Basically, the things taught to us in school are as standardized as possible.

play15:15

And what we can learn is what makes us different

play15:18

No matter what you do

play15:20

We should all aim at the thing itself

play15:22

Rather than aiming to make money

play15:24

We talked about three levers earlier:

play15:26

Products with zero labor, capital, and marginal costs

play15:30

If you use labor as leverage

play15:33

This places extremely high demands on your management skills

play15:36

If you don’t know how to lead a team

play15:38

You can't manage a factory with thousands of people

play15:40

If you use capital as leverage

play15:42

This places high demands on your social credibility

play15:45

If you don’t have a high enough social reputation

play15:48

You can't get capital money

play15:50

What ordinary people should consider most seriously

play15:52

It is the leverage that uses products with zero marginal cost as the carrier.

play15:57

It is simply divided into books, media, movies, and code.

play16:01

If you can program, you can write programs

play16:04

It’s a Bill Gates-style leverage;

play16:07

if you could make a movie

play16:09

Like Disney and Marvel;

play16:11

If you can write books, like Yu Hua and Mo Yan;

play16:14

if you could own the media

play16:16

You can even make a public account, video account, or Douyin account

play16:21

These are all levers that we can effectively obtain

play16:25

Navarre said that there are two types of people

play16:27

How did we classify people in the past?

play16:30

Many people often say that this person is educated

play16:33

That person is uneducated

play16:35

The author says it’s wrong, you shouldn’t classify people like this

play16:37

People cannot be classified by educated or uneducated

play16:41

Should be classified by using leverage and without leverage

play16:44

He believes that people are divided into two categories:

play16:46

One type is people with leverage

play16:48

One type is people without leverage

play16:50

People with leverage even if they don’t work

play16:52

There are also things that help him make money;

play16:53

If people without leverage don’t work

play16:55

There is no money to be made today

play16:57

He said: "If you have expertise and a sense of responsibility

play17:00

And know how to use the leverage effect

play17:03

The monetary rewards society provides you will match your value

play17:07

At this time, you can save more time

play17:10

become super efficient

play17:12

You don’t need to meet for the sake of meeting

play17:14

No need to work hard to express yourself

play17:17

There is no need to show your workload through reporting materials - you just need to focus on the work itself.

play17:23

"

play17:23

Do you know what’s the biggest problem with working for someone else?

play17:27

you are selling your time

play17:30

You want others to give you more money

play17:32

Then you need to show that your time is valuable

play17:35

Why do office politics exist in many companies?

play17:39

There is palace fighting drama

play17:40

Do you fight like hell when it comes time for performance reviews?

play17:43

It's because everyone is trying hard to prove "I am valuable."

play17:48

Work hard to prove "I am valuable",

play17:50

and do it well

play17:52

There is no relationship between the two

play17:54

The harder you work to prove yourself valuable

play17:58

It's possible that no one will do the things you're responsible for.

play18:00

On the contrary, it will not be done well

play18:02

People like Steve Jobs

play18:03

Why can I retire after so many years?

play18:06

Suddenly I thought of making an iPod

play18:08

Or make something like an iPhone?

play18:11

He belongs to the situation we just read about

play18:14

Because his brain is relaxed

play18:16

He doesn't have to prove anything to anyone

play18:18

He just focuses on solving problems

play18:20

This will put people into a virtuous cycle

play18:23

Once you find the leverage

play18:24

You will enter a virtuous cycle

play18:27

And if you don't find the leverage

play18:28

You can easily enter a vicious cycle

play18:31

How do we achieve the leverage effect?

play18:34

Navarre says if you want to gain leverage

play18:37

Two abilities are important

play18:39

Either you have strong sales ability

play18:41

Either you have strong construction skills

play18:43

For example, CTO (Chief Technology Officer), people who make apps, people who write code

play18:49

These are people who are highly constructive;

play18:51

Those in the marketing department who are responsible for selling things, those who are responsible for promotion, those who do live broadcasts, and those who give speeches

play18:56

This is someone who has the ability to sell

play18:59

If you have both sales ability and construction ability

play19:02

Congratulations then

play19:03

You may have become a CEO

play19:07

If you don't become CEO

play19:09

Then these two abilities are enough to give you some leverage

play19:13

Then learn to use your mind to make money

play19:16

Instead of using time to make money

play19:18

Some people can make a lot of money using their time

play19:21

For example, dentists, lawyers, football stars

play19:24

Let's talk about stars

play19:26

The reason why many stars can make a lot of money throughout their lives is

play19:30

It's because he is good at managing money

play19:31

People like O'Neal and James

play19:34

When he has money, he will invest and buy companies

play19:37

You may not know that O'Neal is a shareholder in Google

play19:40

When investing in Google Angel

play19:42

O'Neal voted for Google

play19:44

navar says

play19:45

There is a bottom line here - don't break the law

play19:48

Because many people want to get rich quickly

play19:52

Break the law without hesitation

play19:53

Once you break the law, you go to jail

play19:55

Went to jail

play19:56

Your efforts in the first half of your life may have been in vain.

play20:00

So be patient and take your time

play20:02

Although 99% of your efforts may be wasted

play20:06

But we have to work hard and wait for good luck to come

play20:09

Another very important ability is judgment

play20:13

Why is judgment important?

play20:15

Navarre said, why is a CEO expensive?

play20:18

The most valuable thing about a CEO is his judgment.

play20:21

It is enough that this CEO’s judgment is slightly higher than that of another CEO.

play20:27

If these two companies both control a billion dollar plate

play20:30

This CEO is only 10% smarter than that CEO.

play20:34

Although it doesn't look like much

play20:35

But when you magnify it on this billion plate

play20:37

Just one hundred million

play20:39

So this CEO deserves tens of millions in annual salary

play20:42

This is normal

play20:43

Because his judgment is just a little bit worse

play20:46

For a 10 billion or 100 billion enterprise,

play20:48

Tens of billions will be lost

play20:50

so

play20:51

Judgment is what makes us more expensive

play20:55

This is also a way to make money with your brain

play20:57

You need to set yourself an hourly rate

play21:00

When Nawal had not yet succeeded in starting a business and was not yet very rich,

play21:04

I set myself an hourly wage of $5,000.

play21:08

If he spends an hour doing this

play21:10

Feels like the return is less than $5,000

play21:12

He won't do it

play21:13

He would rather entrust couriers and errand runners to do the work

play21:16

Delegate or authorize someone else to do something

play21:19

Each of us should set an hourly wage for ourselves

play21:22

Let yourself focus on things that have a more power effect

play21:26

Something with more potential for compound interest

play21:28

So what should a fledgling young man do?

play21:32

When I was just starting out

play21:34

Young people need to solve three big problems:

play21:36

The first is where to live

play21:38

Who is the second one with?

play21:40

The third is what kind of occupation

play21:42

These three issues have a great impact on a person's life

play21:46

navar says

play21:47

We need to set aside dedicated time to think

play21:50

For example, choose a city

play21:52

Should you choose the east or the west?

play21:54

Should you choose the coast or the inland?

play21:57

Do you choose the political center or the economic center?

play22:00

Do you choose a big city or a small city?

play22:02

You have to think about this problem

play22:04

This has a lot to do with your values ​​and life orientation
