    Introducing Why Your Retirement Plan Is Wasting Your Life | Bill Perkins from The School of Greatness. Follow the show: The School of Greatness The real mistake isn't spending too much. It's dying with money you never used. Bill Perkins built a career generating over $2.2 billion in trading profits as a hedge fund manager. His book Die With Zero reframes what money is actually for. Money is a tool, not a goal. Every dollar you hold at death represents life energy you spent earning it and never converted into something real. The question isn't how much you save. It's whether you're using your wealth, your health, and your time together, in the right order, to get the most out of your one shot. That's where memory dividends come in. When you invest in an experience, you don't just get the moment. You get a return every time you recall it, tell the story, or relive it in conversation. The joy compounds long after the trip ends. But timing matters more than most people realize. Your ability to convert money into meaningful experience decays as you age. The adventures your body wants now won't be available at 72. Life is like Tetris. Get the pieces in the right order, and you get everything. Delay too long, and the window quietly closes. Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life Amazon Ebook Audiobook Bill on X Bill on Instagram In this episode you will: Understand the Die With Zero philosophy and why every dollar you die holding is proof you worked for no reward Discover the memory dividend concept and why investing in experiences now pays compounding joy long after the moment passes Learn the time bucket framework for getting your biggest experiences in the right order before your body, not your bank account, makes the decision for you Identify the biggest psychological crime around money: fearing you'll run out instead of fearing you'll waste your one life Build the belief, mindset, and consistency that Bill Perkins says are the three keys to earning more and actually feeling fulfilled by what you have For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1937 For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 Follow The Daily Motivation for essential highlights from The School of Greatness More SOG episodes we think you’ll love: Lewis Howes Solo [$0-1M Blueprint] Mrs. Dow Jones Myron Golden TOPICS Bill Perkins, Die With Zero, memory dividends, time buckets, life is Tetris, scarcity mindset, net fulfillment, legacy and inheritance, Your Money or Your Life, financial fulfillment Get More From Lewis!

    British Identity Crisis: The Role of Immigration, Values, and Political Correctness | Tommy Robinson PT 1

    Today's conversation between Impact Theory host Tom Bilyeu and Tommy Robinson focuses on the rapid demographic and cultural shifts currently reshaping cities across the West, with particular emphasis on immigration, identity, and social cohesion. One concept discussed was how these changes are sparking some of the most contentious and consequential debates of the coming decade. A key theme that emerged was the tension between traditional national identity and values, and the effects of multicultural communities—particularly how integration, or the lack thereof, shapes perceptions of safety, belonging, and the preservation of cultural norms. The discussion explored personal experiences of growing up in a changing community, the challenges of assimilation, and the feeling of being unable to openly discuss sensitive issues due to fears of being labeled or facing legal and social repercussions. Several points were raised, including concerns over political correctness, the role of government and corporations in mass immigration policies, and the resulting impact on community values and public discourse. Listeners can expect a deep dive into not only the lived realities behind these societal changes, but also the broader forces—political, economic, and cultural—that drive and shape them. The episode presents a controversial and candid examination of what is at stake for the future, and invites audiences to reflect on the values that define collective identity and community in an increasingly complex world. Chapters: 00:00 UK immigration and political context 16:52 Discussing causes of public outrage 21:35 Discussing the George Floyd case 39:40 The influence of ideological beliefs 52:00 Discussing racial justice and perspectives 54:06 Nelson Mandela's Vision for Unity 01:10:30 Discussing labor and economic factors 01:19:06 AI's role in modern society 01:30:53 Modern struggles and wealth disparity 01:44:37 Questioning female representation in gaming 01:46:50 Discussion on attractive character design 02:04:16 Issues with police response to stabbing 02:07:34 Obsessing over achieving goals See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    George Floyd vs. Henry Nowak: Do All Lives Matter? The Global Backlash Explained | Tom Bilyeu Show

    Welcome to another intense episode of The Tom Bilyeu Show. Today, Tom & Co-host Drew tackle some of the most divisive and urgent headlines shaping global discourse. In the wake of the shocking body cam footage revealing Henry Nowak's final moments and the resulting riots across the UK, Tom explores the viral online comparisons between Britain’s response to the deaths of George Floyd and Henry Nowak, digging into the broader implications for culture, politics, and the escalating tensions around immigration and anti-white bias. They break down the details: the fatal altercation, two-tiered policing, and the ripple effect this incident has had—drawing in political leaders, fueling protests, and exposing perceived double standards in justice and public outrage. The conversation delves deep into the roots of these societal clashes, including how narratives around victimhood, race, and ideology are amplifying divisions both in the UK and beyond. But the episode doesn’t stop there—world events from Russia’s attack on Ukraine, to debates over the government’s role in AI, to controversies igniting the gaming world, all collide in this multi-faceted discussion. Buckle up for a powerful and nuanced conversation that doesn’t shy away from the hard questions. 00:00 UK immigration and political context 16:52 Discussing causes of public outrage 21:35 Discussing the George Floyd case 39:40 The influence of ideological beliefs 52:00 Discussing racial justice and perspectives 54:06 Nelson Mandela's Vision for Unity 01:10:30 Discussing labor and economic factors 01:19:06 AI's role in modern society 01:30:53 Modern struggles and wealth disparity 01:44:37 Questioning female representation in gaming 01:46:50 Discussion on attractive character design 02:04:16 Issues with police response to stabbing 02:07:34 Obsessing over achieving goals See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Free Will Is A Biological Illusion — The Experiment That Proved It Changed How I See Everything

    Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today’s episode, Tom Bilyeu dives deep into one of the most provocative questions facing science and philosophy: Do we really have free will, or are we all just highly sophisticated NPCs—non-player characters—running a program inside a vast, resource-efficient simulation? Drawing on groundbreaking neuroscience experiments, the story of Phineas Gage, quantum mechanics, and the work of leading thinkers like Robert Sapolsky, Tom Bilyeu challenges everything we think we know about choice, consciousness, and the true nature of reality. But this isn’t an episode about nihilism. Instead, Tom Bilyeu reveals why embracing the truth of a stochastically deterministic universe can actually make life feel more meaningful, freeing us from the weight of the past and inspiring us to make the most of every moment—programmed or not.

    Decoding Economic Warfare, Global Transition, Who is Satoshi and How YOU Can Escape the Cage | Impact Theory W. Tom Bilyeu & Simon Dixon

    Real talk: if you’ve ever felt powerless or trapped by the “way things are,” THIS half of the conversation might change your entire reality. I push Simon Dixon even further—how do the powers that be see the next phase? Why are countries like China and blocks like BRICS rising (and what does “multipolar world” even mean for the rest of us)? What about the average person—do we even stand a chance? We dive into the macro shifts happening under the surface—from America’s last gasp of extraction, to how China leverages its own rules, to multipolarity in Africa, the Middle East, and beyond. But it’s not just doom: Simon lays out the actual escape routes, from Bitcoin to local sovereignty, and the radical (surprisingly practical!) ways we can reclaim autonomy right now. Don’t miss the Satoshi Nakamoto bombshell at the end—why Bitcoin may have started as an “op,” and why true self-custody is your ticket to freedom.
