Can it be bought, and once acquired, how do you keep and grow it? Building and living a wealthy life is a skill. Like any other skill, it can be learned, practiced, and used. That’s the purpose of WealthWise, and I’ll be sharing the skills with you as together we uncover the mindset, mechanism, and motivation needed to build a wealthy life. Fishing on Dale Hollow Lake in Tennessee as a child, we didn’t have much money but I was as wealthy then as I’ve ever been. But how could I be rich and poor at the same time? Every millionaire I know will tell you that having true wealth and money together is infinitely preferable to having money alone. In fact, many of these millionaires had already built their wealth long before they had much money in the bank. Hi, my name is Ben Sturgill, and I’d like to share with you the secrets of wealth and what I call the wealth behind the money. You may already know me as the host of RagingBull’s [weekly podcast, WealthWise](, or from my IPO Payday service which helps subscribers gain clarity on which IPOs to trade, and which to avoid. In WealthWise I interview successful, extremely wealthy people. They shared with me their incredible stories, their journeys (with all the twists and turns!) from “just making it” financially to becoming extremely wealthy. And they’ve shared that while millions in the bank and the freedoms that brings feels good, consciously building and living the life they really want to live is priceless. That state of both inner and outer freedom and fulfillment is what I call true wealth – 200% of life – and I’m here to share it with you. One example is Jeff Bishop; you may already know of Jeff as the Co-Founder and CEO of RagingBull? I interviewed Jeff for our [first episode of WealthWise](. Although I've known Jeff for quite a while there were a lot of things that I learned in our interview; that Jeff was fired over 15 times, including while trading options at work! I learned more about how Jeff built RagingBull from scratch into the incredible company that it is today, and how his determination and persistence paid off. By anyone's estimation, Jeff leads an extremely wealthy life, both materially – he is a multimillionaire – but in terms of his happy family life, and the way he gives back to national and local charities through donations and volunteer work. [WealthWise ft. Jeff Bishop]( “Wealth consists not in having great possessions but in having few wants.” – Epictetus A Newsletter About Wealthiness Living 200% of life is what I’ve always strived to live in my own life, and I first started the WealthWise podcast to uncover the truisms behind living a wealthy life. I am fortunate to have access to and be able to uncover what makes many millionaires tick as I learn how they each lead a wealthy life. And through WealthWise I learn not only how millionaires make their millions, but what conscious steps, behaviors, and improvements they’ve made to become wealthy, and to live a life of true freedom. Being able to make conscious choices about every aspect of your life is something that money cannot buy, but the great thing is that wealth is free—if you’re prepared to do the work. One of my WealthWise guests, Chris Graebe, expressed it this way; - “One of the things I believe is that I don't want to build a house that I don’t want to live in. People start acquiring wealth, they start acquiring influence, because, for what? They want people to think they’re great or special or influential, or whatever? Well, who cares? I’ve just decided that for me and my family and my future, I just don’t want to build a house that I don’t want to live in. So many people do that. And they do it to amass money, and they can call it wealth, but then they realize, “I’ve got myself down this road and I don’t want to live in this house. I don’t want to do this. How do I unravel it without the whole thing falling apart on me?" Money and material wealth are good; you probably don’t want to become an ascetic and lead a life of material poverty. But you do want a way to create and consciously build, live and enjoy a wealthy life. 200% of life! “Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.” – Henry David Thoreau My Next Letter to You Every week I’ll be sharing with you ideas, tips, and insights about what wealthy people do, think, and believe to lead a wealthy life, along with ways that you could follow a similar path to model and enjoy that within your own life. You can think of me as your wealth coach! Wealth is a very personal thing, and it means something different to everyone. And while I cannot share the money of all of the millionaires I know with you, I am able to freely share their wealth. I believe that you will enjoy [How To Have Persistence](, with Jeff Bishop, on WealthWise. [Download it here]( or [subscribe on iTunes here](. You can have money alone, or you can lead a wealthy life. If you’d like to consciously build a different house to live in and to lead a wealthy life, I am happy that you’ve decided to join me as I explore the mindset, mechanism, and motivation needed to build a wealthy life.
