Being trilingual is considered to be rather prestigious. Speaking other languages expands your ability to communicate so greatly it adds to the perceived value people will assign to you. But, when you are fluent in Street, Hustling, Broke Money, and Wall Street it becomes the twist no one ever expected. Wallstreet Trapper comes from a troubled past that includes being homeless at 14 and serving 10 years in prison by the age of 16. What he has learned over the years reaches far beyond knowing how to trade stocks and build wealth. His super power is speaking Wall Street in a language that correlates to the same losing game he played on the streets that ended with being shot, in jail or in prison for nearly everyone he knew. His wisdom and willingness to share and make an impact is affecting future generations and bringing Wall Street to the hood, proving that human potential is truly nearly limitless when you put knowledge to use.

QUOTES:
“Wealthy people do three things. They stop trading time for money. They make the money work for them. And they give as much value to people as they can.” [11:45]
“The reason why people think wealthy people are people with money or sinister, is because that's what you kind of taught in the hood.” [17:09]
“Being at the bottom teaches you to envy people at the top.” [17:53]
“Generational poverty is not about money. It's about mindset.” Tom Bilyeu [18:32]

“One of the things that happens often in the culture of black people is survival mode, you never get a chance to play offense. You're always on defense, one, because of mindset” [22:27]
“A good business is just like a good hustler. A good business has great product. They have great clientele. A great hustler has a great product, he has consistent clientele.” [25:35]
“Once you start understanding the fundamentals, you give yourself power, because you now understand, like you said, you see how the machine works,” [30:22]
“Everybody around me had the same problem. No one represented the solution. So if I don't change something, I'm only going to end up like everybody else.” [32:23]
“I got knowledge, I got information, but I still fell victim to the same shit that everybody around me knew. So therefore, the knowledge that I had wasn't powerful because it wasn't applied.” [34:32]

“So if I can break down things into struggle language now I'm making the game winnable for everybody. And that's the goal, to make the game winnable for everybody who's bold enough to step into the batting cage.” [50:37]
“Building wealth becomes a revolutionary act because now you start saying I'm going to go against what I was taught.” [52:25]
“The word possible is so powerful. Possible changes the game. Instead of it being impossible, we now say I am possible” [53:09]
“If learning is the catalyst to everybody who's wealthy and successful, I can never be sufficient with what I know.” [54:24]

As an investing enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. I do have about $70k amount of capital to start up but I have no idea what strategies and direction I need to approach to help me make decent returns
-
My greatest concern is how to recover from all these economic and global troubles and stay afloat especially with the political power tussle going on in the US.

I've been investing with TERESA JENSEN WHITE's guidance for a few years and I couldn't be happier. Her company has given me the best ROI while preserving my capital and has the most thorough investment guidance out there. It also never burns my money with speculation or poor philosophies of risk management.

I'd never heard of Wallstreet Trapper before and don't know why I even clicked on this but boy am I glad I did! If I'm not financially successful within 2 years of watching this it's my fault. I've just been handed the keys to the kingdom

Buy quality companies Hold for 10+ years Add to your positions on dips Keep contributing to your portfolio Reinvest all dividends Don't check your portfolio every day Investing is easy if you make it easy
-
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies.

“The key to wealth is through ownership”. One of the best financial lines ever to be said.

I'm happy that this year I deleted social media now I'm watching this kind of content on a daily basis. Read books learning it's a beautiful thing.

My sister lived in Lantana, Florida, which is right next to Palm Beach. While visiting her once I saw some newspaper article about a summer camp for rich kids being held at The Breakers Resort. It said, in the afternoon the kids were learning to parasail, scuba dive, water ski, etc. BUT... in the morning they were being taught about the Stock Market and how to invest using paper! I believe they also said halfway through the camp they would switch to actually purchasing stocks and then following them for the rest of the camp. THAT'S the difference between poor kids' summer camp and rich kids' summer camp. I went to music camp. Why didn't my parents send me to stock market camp? It never even OCCURRED to them that such a thing was POSSIBLE. Nor did it occur to the people running the camp. How much more would it have cost to teach that instead of teaching kids to play an instrument?

"You have to make the game winnable in a language they can understand." POWERFUL!

Please bring him in again! The way he speaks is... life changing honestly.

When you invest you're buying a day you don't have to work

<>This is quite an interesting and informative video. Are you the type of person who will read as much as possible about potential investments and ask questions about them? If so, maybe you don't need investment advice. But if you're busy with work, kids or other responsibilities, or feel like you don't know enough about investing on your own, then you may benefit from professional investment advice.<>

“Generational wealth is not about money,it’s about mindset” omg I keep saying this all the time! Love this Tom!
-
How does this not have so many more view. This has got me inspired to start learning about investing.

“You gotta invest your way to wealth! If your money is in cash you’re getting poorer every day!” 🔥🔥🔥

I realized that you do not make money by just saving, but by strategic investments. I always tell myself you don’t need that new Aston Martin or that vacation in Hawaii just yet & that mindset helps me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 200 grand in the S&P 500 (with the help of my advisor Jane Marie Kunak of course) and made 350k, but guess what? I put it back and traded with her again and now I’m rounding up close to a million.
