Nobody, absolutely nobody, gives a [ __ ] about you as much as you're going to have to give a [ __ ] about yourself. Nobody cares about you as much as they need to care to fix your life. Even your parents, even your friends, even all the people who think they care about you, they care about you. Yeah, sure, there may be two or three people on the planet who genuinely care about you, but nobody is going to come to your bed, drag you out of bed, drag you to a job, force you to work hard, go and get you a hot meal, go and buy you a Ferrari. Nobody is going to do that for you. You are never going to have any of the things you want if you do not get them yourself. Nobody cares about you enough to do it for you. This is absolutely true.
I always knew the answer to everything is raw action. Yeah, the answer to everything has always been raw action. My dad had a tweet about this. He said that raw action solves all, and he used to say this. I'll give you an example. If you're a farmer and you need rain for your crop and there's no rain, you can sit there and say, "There's no rain, we're all going to starve." Or you can stand up and do a rain dance. Now, will your rain dance work? Perhaps not. Perhaps the rain won't come, but I would argue that you're better off standing up, doing that rain dance, than just sitting there waiting to die. You have to do something. Raw action solves.
So when I was broke, I was never like, "Ah, I'm poor, I'm poor, what do I do?" It was, "I'm poor, what must I have to do something?" I would just, if I was broke, I'd go for a run. That's why I was such a great fighter. If I was was broke, I'd sit there and go, "I'm actually poor. How do I make money?" Don't know. "How can I make, where can I get some cash?" Don't know. "What work can I do?" Don't know. "I'll just go for a run then." And I just go for a three-mile run. What the [ __ ]? You need to sit there and realize, whoa, whoa, whoa. I have a few years of consciousness, and even less than that. I have a few short years as a young man, because age will damage you. I mean, if you're a millionaire when you're 60, it's not nearly as good as being a millionaire at my age. I became a millionaire at 28. So you need to realize you've got a few short years as a young man. You're wasting them. Talk to people and they're content. They're like, "Oh, I'm happy with what I've got." I'm like, "Why?" Because there's people who have a whole bunch more than you. And I was never content having a normal life. I wanted an exceptional life. I didn't want a normal car, a normal house, a normal girlfriend. I didn't want none of that. I was like, "No, no, no, no. There's dudes out here that have the best. Why do they deserve the best and I don't deserve the best?" I really believe that. And and this is something I I've always had inside me. I just didn't understand why I couldn't have the best stuff.
I have a lot of guys ask me. Similar to your question, a guy will come to me and go, "How do I get a girl?" I'm like, "Bro, you're a loser." "Yeah, but I know, but how do I get a girl?" Well, you're a [ __ ] loser. You're a loser. Why are you asking me? It's like saying, "How do I win a race with a push bike?" You're racing Ferraris. What do you want me to do? There's only so much you can do. There's only so hard you can pedal. There's only so many tricks and and tips. There's only so many game things you can say, so many pickup lines. If you're a loser, it's going to be very, very difficult. And it's going to get harder and harder. The game is rigged to become harder and harder for men. It's not getting easier. It's going the other way. And if you're going to be on a racetrack and there's going to be Ferraris there, and you're going to be on a pedal bike or in a Nissan, you're going to get smoked. That's the game. You have to up yourself. You have to improve yourself. I'm not going to lie to anybody here and say you don't have to improve yourself. You can stay a loser and get chicks because you can't. Yeah, you can't.
I will say this, because I say on every single podcast. If they lock me up for some insane [ __ ], Matrix has attacked me. If I carry on the trajectory I'm carrying on, they're going to put me in jail because I'm too influential for the people watching. They just need to sit and understand that the system does not make rules for the good of you. It makes rules for the good of the people who make the rules. And a lot of the life paths laid out to the average man at home today is not for their own good. It's only going to lead them to depression and misery. There's no evidence in my file. I've done nothing wrong. Everybody knows I'm innocent. This is a huge injustice. The way we see it, they should not be detained at this point. There are not even charges filed against them. People are trying to set him up to look like he's something that he is not. They best get this guy, because if he comes out and he's free, oh my gosh, can you imagine if he comes out and he's free? What his first life is going to be like? It could break the record. It'll be the talk of the world on how many people. It'll be banned in countries. It'll be feared. Because if you go after a person like this, you better have proof to arrest them or get them. You don't go through somebody like this because they become a big figure and their message becomes bigger, specifically to the people that didn't listen to it before or hated. They're going to say, "Why are you trying to silence this guy?" And you don't think Andrew is going to come out telling the story?
I hope this pisses you off because I'm telling you to annoy you that you're sitting there struggling to pay your bills. There are people out there making so much money, you couldn't possibly fathom to have anything they want all of the time. And you may sit there and go, "Oh, but they're miserable." A lot of them aren't. Trust me, they're having a great time. So you need to make a bunch more money because there's money everywhere. I look at a beautiful woman and go, "I can go on a date with her and she's absolutely gorgeous and perhaps fall in love, and it'll be great." But you know what? I'd rather work. I just want to conquer the earth. I don't care about anything else. So you need to start identifying how your money is taken from you, because once you identify how your money is taken from you, you can start to actually intelligently think about how you can take money from other people. The only time being a man ever is good is if you become an exceptional man. He understood, "Be near the money." "I have no money." "Money's over there." "Well, let me get closer to it." Like, no point staying over here on my [ __ ] own. Let me at least get closer to it. That was a 17-year-old kid. Money for us is a tool to shape the world. And and I think that's what a lot of people also don't understand about being rich. You don't want to be rich, you want to be powerful. That's what really is going to satisfy you in your soul. It's the power. It's it's not the "I can afford this." That that's nice for a while, but really what makes you happy is there's 60 of these Bugattis on Earth. Everyone wants one. Who gets one? I do. Because you can't have one. That's that's the fun of it, right? So it's power you're truly chasing. And if you want to be powerful, you can't be scared to invest money and spend money. A lot of people at home, if they want to make more money, need to invest in themselves. To invest in themselves. And they're they maybe they've been taught well. "If I just save, if I just save." Let me say to everyone here at home, if you are saving less than 10 grand a month and you're just saving, saving, your chance of being rich is [ __ ] zero. You need to go and do something else and make more. Invest in yourself. Get knowledge. Pay attention to mentors. Start another business. Open something. You need to do something because you're not going to save your way to the top. The average person at home, you're not earning enough to ever save. If you save 100% of your wage, you're still going to be broke. You have to get to a level of earning.
When I found out about the, I just learned about how they print money. I literally could not believe. Oh yeah, money is not real. For 3 days I'm sitting around. I'm like, "What the [ __ ] is this?" So they, you can just print this [ __ ]. Money is not real. It's not real. They just print it. It's not real. Fair, please. Yeah. So money's not real. And I say that to people. It's not about money. No, it's not about money. So what's about? It's about power, control. So I've been from the absolute bottom to the absolute top. I've seen it all. And once you get past a certain level of wealth, once you get past a certain level of money, yeah, but then then you understand what money is, right? So we say about money not being real. Money is not real from a governmental perspective because they just print it. It's nothing. But money is truthfully the stored time and energy of other people. If you have money, you have stored time and energy of other humans because hourly rates. That's right. Because I can take that money and make someone else use their time and energy for X thing. So let's look at even American slavery. The slavery that most Americans understand. You're going to work for me. I'm going to give you a house and I'm going to give you food, and you're going to stay here and you're going to work. Slavery is abolished. So now what do we do? You're going to work for me. I'm gonna give you that. I'm gonna give you some money. And that money is enough to only buy you a house and some food. We've just put money in the middle. Now, if I can make you do whatever I want for money, and I can print as much money as I want, you're my slave. Because I can print it from the sky and you need it to live. So you are my slave. Money is not real. So I have all of this money. I have the stored time and energy of other humans. And once you get past a certain level of wealth, you understand, which ties back to COVID, that you're not interested in money. What you're interested in is people. It's always been about having good people around you. You want a beautiful, doting, loving woman who's obsessed with you. You want good brothers who will stand by you and make you motivated. You want bodyguards who are going to protect you. You want, you want people. And then you want to look at it further down the rabbit hole. You want to get more sinister. If you've been born into a lineage or a dynasty or the people who control the world, you want people. You want robot people. You don't want to be spoken to disrespectfully in your empire. In your podcast empire, right? You now have a podcast. Would you allow a member of staff to come along and say, "This is [ __ ]. I don't like how you do this. This is [ __ ]. You're [ __ ]?" Would you fire him? I don't know if I would fire them. I would first try to teach them how to behave. And if they didn't listen, they're out. Absolutely. So let's imagine you ran a country. Okay. All right. Let's imagine you ran the world.
So I say this to people. I say, for the next two weeks, every time you spend money, even if it's a pound, write down how they got it from you. And they're like, "What do you mean?" I'm like, "All right, cool. You're walking down the street, you're going to Starbucks, you buy a coffee. Why did they take your money?" "Well, I wanted coffee." "Yeah, but how?" "Okay, you wanted coffee, right? Cool. Did you only want a coffee because you saw Starbucks, or did you want a coffee beforehand? Why did you want their coffee and not another coffee? Did you buy a cake as well? Why did you buy a cake?" All right, cool. So now you've identified how they took your money. Then realize how they could have took more of your money. You bought a cake, but you didn't buy a sandwich. Why? "The sandwiches weren't on display, or they looked cold, or they looked rubbish, or the woman who was serving me was old and ugly." Maybe she was a young cutie and talked to me about baloney sandwiches, would have bought one, right? So you just start identifying how your money is taken from you, because once you identify how your money is taken from you, you can start to actually intelligently think about how you can take money from other people.
I find it amazing when people say they don't have motivation. I have people come to me and say, "I want to get rich. I don't have motivation. I want to work harder." Said, "How can you not have motivation to get rich when somebody like me, with a head start like mine, is still working 18-hour days every single day, 7 days a week, without having a day off? I'm going to crush you. You don't stand a chance. I will beat you, and you're just going to sit there and perpetually lose because you can't find the motivation to crawl up out the mud and stay a bug until you end up in your 15-minute city getting your 17th injection like a dummy, like a useless eater." All I do is work. Nothing is fun. I don't have fun. I don't even understand sports. I don't understand the concept of fun. The only sport I ever dug was beating the [ __ ] out of people. Is that fun? I wake up every day and I think, "How do I make my life better?" Nobody else wakes up each day and goes, "How do I make Andrew Tate's life better?" So if you're not the person who's waking up every day going, "How do I improve my existence?" then nobody is. Nobody on the planet is considering improving your one spin on Earth. No one else cares. Nobody else cares. So if you don't care, then you're [ __ ]. So you need to wake up and care.
And it's amazing to me. Like, you're saying, "How did I find my mentors?" I just tried a bunch of them. Like when I had no money, I would try very hard to. I'd listen to lots of different people, or I'd try different things. And I wasn't, I wasn't scared to invest in myself because I understand that look, if he's taking time out of his life, then I need to reward him for it financially. And I tried very hard, and I listened, and I paid attention, and I was never lazy. I don't believe there's a person on the planet who pays attention, tries their best, is never lazy, is on time, works hard, has a mentor, and is giving it his all, who isn't rich. I don't believe it. I think that if you do all those things, you're rich. And if you don't have any money, you're missing one of those key elements. Now, you can fool yourself and you can fool everyone else. You can pretend you're doing them. But if you're truly honest with yourself, am I finding people who are trying to teach me what I want to know? And am I trying my best? And the answer is [ __ ] no, every time. Just even being around people with money is just a good place to be.
I'll give you an example. I was in Romania, and I have the largest car collection, probably in Romania. I have 28 supercars, everything you can name. And uh, I went to uh, a town called Cluj-Napoca. It's on the border of Hungary. And I drove there in my Chiron and I parked up. And a kid came up and he said, "Hey, can I take some photos of your car? I have a car spotting page." I was like, "Yeah, whatever, cool." And he goes, uh, "Yeah, okay. I'll just be a few minutes to this." So he took a bunch of photos. And he goes, and he comes up to me and goes, "Say, do you want the photos?" And I was like, "Not really, I've already got photos." And he goes, "Oh, yeah, okay. Uh, well, if you want them, here's my email address." And I said to him, "Why do you do this? Like, you spend all day standing around taking photos of other people's cars. Is that not a waste of time?" I thought it was a waste of time, but I was wrong. He goes, "Oh, well, I skipped school and I skipped college 'cause I knew if I take pictures of expensive cars and and email them to people, I'll I'll have email addresses of the richest people in Romania." Yeah, smart. I was like, "You're clever." I ended up hiring him. He works for me now. Yeah. I was like, "You know, I like you." He got himself a full-time job that day. So he understood, "Be near the money." "I have no money." "Money's over there." "Well, let me get closer to it." No point staying over here on my [ __ ] own. Let me at least get closer to it. That was a 17-year-old kid. Now he's making 10 grand a month in Romania for me. So like, at least being closer to it. So you're right, people should, even if they haven't got a penny in the world, should be going to these meetings about real estate, about investing. That especially if it's cheap. They should go. Just meet other people who at least have money. Have conversations about money. Talk about it. How you going to get what you talk about?
And I look at them and go, yes. I think a lot of a lot of the problem with people, especially in the world today, is they they misunderstand the difference between a a dream and a plan. And nothing good in your life is ever going to happen by accident. If you see a guy in fantastic shape, you don't say, "How'd you get in great shape?" And he goes, "It just happened. Oops, I just fell." No, he he ate a specific way, he trained a specific time, he did specific things for a specific outcome. And it's the same with finances. And most people who are broke, if you say, "Do you want to be rich?" "Yeah, I want to be rich." "How you going to get rich?" "One day I'll win the lottery." Yeah, dumb [ __ ]. You have no plan. You have no plan whatsoever. No actionable steps. No, you're not doing things daily. You're just hoping some point in the future God's going to just dump on your doorstep. Guess what? It ain't going to [ __ ] happen. And unless you have a plan, a specific plan. I'm sure you guys had a very, you had a plan and you worked hard to get to your points. I I had a plan. Everything was like, okay, today we have to do day after day after day until you get there. And this is what most people don't have because they're too arrogant or too lazy. I don't think it's stupid. I think most people, if you laid out a plan and they tried their very best and they were willing to learn, could do it. I don't think people are too stupid to make money. They're just too lazy or too arrogant to make money. That's the problem with people.
A lot of people are obsessed with the idea of happiness. And especially as a man, I think that happiness can actually be a very destructive motivator. And when men sit and say, "I want to be happy. I want to feel happy." To feel happy, a lot of the time you're looking for temporary hedonism to be happy. You want to get drunk or take drugs or do something stupid temporarily, and it's very short-lived. I think you should instead be looking as a man to say, "I want to feel proud." If you choose pride over happiness, you're going to make decisions that you're proud of, and that people around you are proud of, and it's going to be better, better for yourself, and better for society, and better for everyone who loves you, everyone you care about. If you're the kind of person who searches for happiness, whether male or female, in my experience, people who search for happiness end up doing hedonistic, temporary, stupid things. When I find men who search to feel feel proud of themselves, "I want people to be proud of me, and I want to be proud of myself, and I want to be respected," they often delay happiness. They often go through very difficult things and build things which are beautiful, or build things which are difficult to do. They often go to the other side of fear to feel that pride. "I did it. I faced my fear. I did it." So I think as a man, searching for pride, or searching to feel proud, is a pretty positive mindset for masculine achievement.
The reason I'm the luckiest man on Earth is because God has given me endless building blocks to build a superhero. He's given me endless power. He's given me endless motivation. What did we say? Yeah, he gives me endless. I have endless sources of power. I can sit here right now and recall events that will prevent me from sleeping for two to three days. That gives me a superpower that other men do not have. They want to go to sleep. They're tired. I I can stop being tired for for days at a time. I can just have a thought. I can remember. I can sit, close my eyes, and use the power of my brain to vividly remember events, and I will not sleep for days. And when people come to me and say, "Oh, this happened. I'm really sad. Or my heart broke. Or this bad thing happened to me." I say, "Good. Good. Thank the Lord that he's given you this endless source of motivation. You're wasting it. That's your problem. But it's been given to you. Nitrous oxide has been given to you. You just have to use it in the correct way." So I'm the luckiest man in the world because all the bad things that happened to me have given me all the building blocks to become the most fantastic man on the face of the planet.
I don't ever sit and concern myself with, "Am I spending too much?" If I thought I was spending too much, I would simply find a way to make more money. And a lot of people talk about efficiency as well. I've had people talk about working smart, not hard. That is true. But I believe that you need to to fill your day with all of the hard work first. I think that working smart is a matter of being more efficient with all the time you should spend working. If you sit there and go, "I want to work smart, not hard," so I work an hour a day. Well, then you're you're still lazy. You should work smart and hard and do do 15 smart hours a day. That's how you win.
I was talking to a young guy the other day, and he was 22, I think, and he caught a crypto pump. He made like $4 million in the last bull run. And now all the coins have gone down. Whatever, whatever. He sold some. He has like one half million. I like, "Oh, yeah. So I'm waiting for the next pump." I was like, "Bro, the problem with you is you've now been ruined for life because you're 22. You made easy money and you think that you don't have to ever do any serious work. You also have no skill. Problem is with the crypto pump, it doesn't teach you anything. You didn't learn sales, marketing, staff management, stress tolerance. You need that. Nothing. He doesn't know how to do anything. So he's just sitting there just gambling on shitcoins, waiting for the next one to pump. And he's 22, and his ass is never going to want to get a real job, and he doesn't have any skills. So I think he's in a lot of trouble, truthfully." And I made that made this clear to him. So it can be a detrimental thing. It can be a bad thing. But in terms of making money, it's certainly easier than it's ever been because we live in a global marketplace now. You can reach the world. And all you have to do is have a message worth making people listen to. And and it's truly is the abundance mindset is true. I remember when I was broke. When I was broke, I thought everyone was broke. You do. Because I was broke 100%. And then you get rich and you start thinking, [ __ ] everyone has money. Every supercar I want is sold out. Every diamond watch I want is sold out. The private jet charters are full. The yachts are full. Like, as soon as you get rich, you start, "Who are all these people that got money? Who are they?"
I was just in Dubai, and my houses are being built. They're going to be completed this year. I bought a bunch of them off-plan. So I decided to rent. And I rented a house and on the Palm. And it was $25,000 a day dollars. And I rented it. And I'm sitting there and the landlord comes and goes, "I just got an offer for $35,000 a day. You need to leave." And I go, "Okay, well, I'll pay $40,000 a day." And then he came back and goes, "The guy's offered $50,000 a day for a year." And I'm like, "Who am I even in a bidding war with?" And I just left. I was like, "You know what? Take it. I'll get another one." But like, there's people out there with money like you couldn't [ __ ] fathom. There is so much money in the world. So it's, you do get to a level of wealth. Another time it hit me. I was at Monaco. I was sitting around uh, dinner in Monaco after it was on a car rally, funnily enough. And there's like 10 of us. And I just looked around the table by coincidence. And I saw everyone's wearing a nice watch. And I thought, when I was broke, the idea if someone told me they had 30 or 40 grand in the bank, I thought they were doing good. Now I'm sitting at a table, everyone's wearing a $100,000 watch. Nobody gives a [ __ ]. It's just like the, there's levels to the game. And when you get up to the top, you realize there's money everywhere. Abundance mindset. There are so many rich people.
So if you're not where you want to be financially, I hope this pisses you off because I'm telling you to annoy you that you're sitting there struggling to pay your bills. There are people out there making so much money, you couldn't possibly fathom to have anything they want all of the time. And you may sit there and go, "Oh, but they're miserable." A lot of them aren't. Trust me, they're having a great time. So you need to make a bunch more money because there's money everywhere. [Music]
