Hereās the 3 min stack for today:
š Most Expensive Gym In The World
š Investing In 2024
š§ Final Thoughts
Most Expensive Gym In The Worldā¦
You get what you pay for, right?
A gym in Phoenix, Arizona sure thinks so.
While Planet Fitness gives away memberships in exchange for 1 Chipotle burrito, Exos in Phoenix charges a whopping $30,000 per year. Thatās $2,500 a month.
Now before you roll your eyesā¦ As an entrepreneur you need to be learning from everyone. They sell out the gym and hereās why:
As a member of the gym, you get to mingle with other āeliteā class. Build friendships, find business partnersā¦etc.
Top-notch facilities and the latest equipment
Trainers and researches focused on each member at a time
Your fitness journey is tracked by professionals, from nutrition plans, to sleep habits, to workout routines and so on.
Thatās just an overview. There are many details that they absolutely excel at.
As a business owner, you need to think of your offers the same way. Are you the Planet Fitness? Or are you Exos?
There are more than enough people with big money to buy your product or service. But realize thisā¦ Rich will always buy expensive, poor will always buy cheap.
Give your product/service that Exos feel.
Investing In 2024ā¦
Letās talk about this.
2023 was kind of a weird year for a lot of people. Talks of recession talks, losing jobs, slow business, inflated pricesā¦
People were literally scared to spend money, and rightfully so. Now that 2024 is upon us, we are filling a little more risky and are down to invest.
I donāt want to burst your bubbleā¦ But letās not get crazy here. Although the market is hitting all time highs, everything is still VERY expensive.
Guys like Warren Buffett will be first to tell you that there are 2 rules in investing.
Rule #1: Donāt lose money
Rule# 2: Donāt forget Rule #1
So where do you put your money in 2024? Because of unrest of this yearās elections and continued talks of recession, we need to be consvervative.
First, save. Open a High-Yield savings account with an online bank. Yes, I said online bank - thatās important. Online banks right now are offering a much better return if you keep the money in a savings account vs a traditional national bank.
Second, buy stocks that give a dividend. This is a long term play, donāt expect to get rich. But having money work for you and pay you out a dividend every quarter is great.
Third, crypto. This currency will be the future one day. We donāt know when, but itās coming. Jump in now and wait it out. This is the riskier out of the 3, so donāt dump your whole piggybank in there.
There will be years where we can get a little more crazy with investments and really take some shots. For nowā¦ Iām doing the basics and getting modest returns.
Final Thoughtsā¦
This newsletter was probably a little over 3 minutes long š
So Iāll leave you with this.
Patience isnāt about waitingā¦ Itās about having a great attitude while you wait.
There are countless stories about people staying in the game a long time, buying their time, staying patientā¦ And then getting the result they always wanted.
Be that story. Everything worthwhile takes time. There are no shortcuts that will make you rich tomorrow or fill your inbox with a million leads.
Control what you can each day, believe in yourself, and stay patient.

Cheering for ya!
