1 idea makes it worth it

You might know my rule when it comes to books: Just buy it. To view this email as a web page, [click here]() {NAME}, You might know my rule when it comes to books: Just buy it. Why? Because if there’s even ONE SINGLE IDEA in that book that shifts my thinking in some way, then the $25 (or however much hardcovers cost these days) is 1000% worth it. [Instagram post] This practice has served me well over the years, and it’s helped me discover more than a few authors and topics I might not have stumbled on otherwise. In the spirit of my book rule, I have a surprise for you. It’s called Ramit’s Brain Trust Insights. This program is a collection of my recorded interviews with 40+ insanely smart and successful people, plus tools to put your takeaways into action. Each interview is packed with insights that could change the way you think. Just like reading a book — except even easier, because you’re watching a video. These interviews haven’t been available to the public for 10 years. And they only exist because of something I noticed way back in 2012… Story time: In 2012, I was getting the same replies to my emails over and over. They usually said something like: Must be nice to be able to call Tim Ferriss for productivity advice!!! Too bad the rest of us don’t have celebrities on speed dial!! Or sometimes it was a snarky comment on a social media post: Your money advice doesn’t apply to me because I don’t live in a mansion in Beverly Hills. (Neither do I, for the record.) It was a pattern. Every time I mentioned getting guidance from someone smart and successful, my readers pointed out that I had access to an elite world. I could just pick up my iPhone 5s (remember, it was 2013) and shoot a text to someone like Esther Perel, Paul Sullivan, Pamela Slim, or Jayson Gaignard to ask questions like: - [Why do so many couples stop having sex after they get married]()? (A great question for Esther, who wrote the bestselling book “Mating in Captivity”) - [How do ultra-wealthy people think about their money in ways that the rest of us don’t]()? (Paul, who used to write The New York Times’ Wealth Matters column, was obviously my go-to for this one) - [How can I become invaluable at my job… while avoiding getting “promoted” into a position I actually hate]()? (Pam, who wrote “Escape from Cubicle Nation,” shared both philosophical and practical answers here) - [Can you still build a powerful network even if you hate networking]()? (Jayson, who founded Mastermind Talks, told me how he did it) I was lucky enough to have some of the world’s smartest, most successful people in my address book, ready and willing to answer my questions. And WHEW, did everyone want me to own up to that. [Man Typing] All those responses had this energy. You know what? My snarky commenters were right. So I decided it was time to share. I interviewed 40+ of my friends, mentors, teachers, and people I personally admired, then made those interviews available as part of the original Ramit’s Brain Trust. And it was a hit! I was getting feedback like this: [Abhinav Singh] “Now, I am confident, not just a talker but a doer, more organised in my approaches to get anything done, being able to stay focused and excited while doing something (not just motivated). My confidence level has improved significantly by the number of good things I have been able to achieve in just the past year.” -Abhinav Singh Awesome, right? “Not just a talker but a doer” — how many of us wish we could say that about ourselves? Back to the story: I’m a pretty relentless interviewer. If you’ve watched my Netflix show, “How to Get Rich,” you already know this. I asked my guests HARD questions, and I probed until I got to satisfying answers. But after that first launch of Ramit’s Brain Trust, I moved on to creating other programs… And for years, the Ramit’s Brain Trust interviews have been sitting here, gathering dust (digitally. They’re not on VHS or anything) while I tried to figure out what to do with them. I didn’t just want to re-release the interviews. I also wanted to add interaction and accountability. To help make sure that you would actually USE what you learn from these videos, {NAME}. That’s why, inside [the newly revamped Ramit’s Brain Trust Insights](), you’ll find: - Not just my deep-dive interview videos with 40+ experts in entrepreneurship, marketing, career-building, and personal development, but also… - Reflections on every interview’s highlights — A handy TL;DR for each of the 40+ videos - Worksheets for every interview — Probing questions to help you distill what you personally will take away - AND bonus Brain Trust Challenges for every interview — Time-bound, did-I-do-it-or-didn’t-I challenges that push you to try something new right here, right now. I've been thinking about these conversations ever since we filmed them. They're STUFFED with useful advice and mindset shifts that changed my life. Meet my friends, mentors, and guides to everything from business and marketing to self-worth and confidence. I’ll bet you $199 (the price of this program) that there’s at least one idea inside RBTI that will change the way you think. And that’s worth everything. [Signature] P.S. Ramit’s Brain Trust Insights isn’t specifically about money, or psychology, or copywriting, or any other single subject. It’s more of a holistic approach to leveling up as a human, taught by humans at life’s highest levels. [Take a look]().
