“We’re kind of a contradiction – we work 15 hours a day, scheming of evil ways to make money without working…”

That there is a direct quote from my pal David Schwind, when we were talking about business at 4 AM, scheming of brilliant, devilish ways to never have to talk about business again….

…one of my favorite things that I’ve learned in the last year is how easy it is to make money.

Since then, I’ve discovered that it takes an equivalent amount of energy and work to make $5 an hour, as it does to make $5,000 a day. (I’m still working on making $5,000 EVERY DAY, but I’ll get there soon – last week I actually averaged $7,000 a day in money-getting madness).

***Disclaimer: The government hates you and wants me to tell you that you suck, can’t succeed, and you’re a loser. Although I think they’re full of it and you can definitely kick butt – obviously, not everyone makes boatloads of cash instantly.

Back to my ultimate discovery – it takes just as much energy to make $5 an hour as it does to make $5,000 a day. One way is just a more efficient system than the other.

There are two kinds of general money-getting systems: Employee systems, and Entrepreneurial systems. The efficiency of a money-getting system is its ability to convert energy into money. One system might generate $5 an hour, while another might generate $50,000 daily.

Callen’s day involves hard work for little return, while my day yields $7,000 daily. What’s the difference between Callen and me? Nothing, really – we both work hard. The difference is our money-getting systems. (Insert image here)

The only two things that determine money output are 1) the efficiency of your money-getting system and 2) the power (energy and hard work) that is put into that system.

P.S. Leave me your thoughts, comments, and questions below.

That was freaking hilarious (the video with Obama and George!) Love it!!!

Hi David, I agree with everything you say and by the way I wondered if you’d seen this Video yet?

Hans Schoff

Like you mentioned in a previous video, those profanities help to better illustrate the point and get your attention. The robotic voices add that extra touch as well…

Mike McGhie

Dude that was an awesome post. Always a learning experience.

Alex Pino

One more thing to add about the contradiction part… We do it so that we can make money without working LATER.

Peter Day

David, great post. I’m with you 1000%. I could do nothing other than Network Marketing!

Jon A. Smith

Dave, you are very funny. Yes, I am!

Steven Schmeltzle

Hey David, Awesome post! Not only are you a great marketer and leader, but you are also a great entertainer!

Samantha Pierce

David, this post really resonated with me. It’s refreshing to see someone break down the barriers between hard work and smarter work. Keep pushing those boundaries!

Isaac Miller

I’m having a hard time believing that it’s possible to earn that much with so little effort. Do you have any case studies or proof to back up the claims? I’d be interested to see some evidence.

Clara Jenkins

Hey David, this concept is fascinating, but how do you suggest someone transition from an employee system to an entrepreneurial system? Would love to hear your advice on that.

Mark Robinson

I have to disagree with you here. Not everyone is cut out for entrepreneurship, and sometimes, these systems oversimplify the realities. Do you ever consider the risks involved?

Thomas Bennett

Man, I love reading your stuff. How have you been? It’s been a while since we caught up. We should definitely grab a coffee sometime and chat about these strategies in person!

Alicia Nguyen

This post really hit home for me! I was stuck in a job that drained my energy, but once I shifted to working smarter, everything changed. Your advice is spot-on!

Nathaniel Ortiz

I found a tool recently that aligns perfectly with your post! It’s called “ProfitBuilder” and it automates a lot of what you’re talking about. Might be worth checking out!

Rachel Fletcher

I just wanted to say thank you, David! This post opened my eyes to the possibilities of working smarter. I’ve already started making changes in my routine thanks to what I learned here.
