Show Notes
When people rise from humble backgrounds to the top of their professions, they truly have worked hard to get there and this weeks guest is no exception.
Master Trader and self-made multimillionaire Greg Secker joins me to talk about what it REALLY takes to play the financial game to your advantage and the main techniques he's used to create life-changing, generational wealth.
From humble beginnings to building schools in Africa with Richard Branson, it’s safe to say Greg has had a colourful life. Nothing is off limits in this interview as we talk about how wild it was to be a trader in the nineties, his friendship with "The Wolf Of Wall Street" himself - Jordan Belfort - and how Greg's advice has helped him to become a world-class speaker.
From enterprising youngster to world-renowned expert. Greg’s story is truly inspirational!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There's always a strategy to get what you want in life. If you want to get rich, there are tried and tested methods and people out there who can show you the way. Nothing is beyond your reach.
You can't expect overnight success in one go. Success comes from making many smaller decisions and incrementally building your way to the bigger wins.
If you're looking for handouts in life, then your ethic is all wrong. Instead, look for ways to grow your own wealth independently, and perpetually, and teach the next generation the importance of doing so.
Celebrating your wins is all very well, but too much and you will train your emotions to be riding high when you find a win, and devastated when you face a loss.
BEST MOMENTS
'I'm an entrepreneur - a maverick - I'm a risk taker'
'Success isn't getting one thing right. It's getting lots of little things right'
'There is a strategy to everything in life'
'When emotions are on fire, what they do is distort the plan'

Following this commitment, she got to work and has now built multiple successful companies, as well as having created a multimillion-pound property portfolio from a standing start.
