Also, if you’re wondering what the catch is, let’s just cut the crap right now. I hate when some random internet guy tells you: "It’s so simple to be a millionaire! Just follow my system...” ...and then, buried halfway down the page, they casually mention that their parents gave them a “small loan” of $989,000. Thanks for that. I didn’t grow up with rich parents. My mom and dad immigrated from India. My dad was an engineer and my mom stayed home raising 4 kids. No nanny, no private schools. [Young Ramit] My mom made dinner at home every night. We ate out about once a month, usually at a pizza place where we had a coupon. Our family vacation involved driving to Southern California and staying with family. My mom packed lunches for the trip to save money. And honestly — I was lucky! I was lucky enough to be born in America with two parents who taught me the value of education and working hard. In my 20s, I asked my parents how they raised 4 kids on one income. My mom told me that once, when we were enrolling in a kids’ soccer league, the fees were too high. She called them and asked if there was any way they could waive the fees. They told her if she came and chalked the fields before a game, they would waive it. So that’s what my mom did. Imagine learning that your mom was chalking a soccer field so you could play soccer as a kid. My parents taught me the value of hard work. They taught me that there’s always a way. When it was time to apply to college, they told me I needed to get scholarships to pay for it. I decided I was going all-in: I built a system to apply to 65 scholarships. The scholarships I got ended up paying my way through undergrad and grad school at Stanford. It was around this time that the first idea behind I Will Teach You To Be Rich hit me… Freedom vs. the default American lifestyle In college, I started to realize that even if you get a degree, it’s easy to fall into the trap of the default American lifestyle: - Get a job and work 9-5 for 45 years, hating your alarm clock every morning - Buy a bunch of useless trinkets for your living room to keep up with the Joneses - Wake up when your boss tells you to, do the work your boss tells you to, and take a limited vacation when your boss lets you NO! I refused to get on that hamster wheel. I didn't want a lifetime of struggle — of feeling guilty about a $10 appetizer — with nothing to show for it. No. I wanted more. And I was willing to work to get it. If I’d followed my default life path, I’d be an engineer at a tech company, wearing an oversized t-shirt with a huge Cisco logo. Honestly, it’s not a bad life — but it’s not for me. No thanks. I wanted to craft a life that let me work on my own terms. I didn't know how to do it. I just knew I wanted to figure it out, somehow. With a bit of luck and hard work — [and some very specific decisions that I want to show you]() — I was able to craft a totally different life. My Rich Life. I went from a college student with no experience to founder and CEO of a successful, automated, multimillion-dollar business that's helped millions of people. Hell, my business practically ran itself while I filmed my Netflix show “[How to Get Rich]().” I hardly had to check in at all during the months I was shooting. I built a business that lets me go to the gym in the middle of the day. Or take every Wednesday off just to read. [Ramit] A business that lets me share my passions and experiences with the world — and still be myself. A business that lets me create the lifestyle I want — and actually generates revenue while I'm traveling (and even sleeping). [Ramit] A business that gives me enough money that I never have to worry about buying appetizers or a nice outfit or going all-in on a fancy wedding and 6-week honeymoon. It gives me the freedom to say "YES!" to the things I love (and a guilt-free "no" to the things I don't). [Cass and Ramit] That's my story.
