- A week and a half ago, I flew to Portland for the World Domination Summit -- a conference with an admittedly eyebrow-raising title.
The conference is hosted by Chris Guillebeau, the New York Times best-selling author of multiple books, including The Art of Non-Conformity. He was also a previous guest on this podcast.
I've wanted to check out WDS for years, so I was thrilled when Chris asked me to give a presentation there.
Then he mentioned that my presentation should be three hours long, which sounded terrifying. But that's all the more reason to say yes.
I choose my own eyebrow-raising topic, How to Afford Anything, and ... promptly procrastinated on planning for several months. Yeah, that definitely happened. #guilty
Then, at the beginning of July, I flew into a frenzy, called a few friends for advice, scanned over several books, watched multiple talks for inspiration, and isolated myself in a remote, empty house for several days. (Past guest Cal Newport would call this a "deep work retreat.") The result was a half-day workshop that synthesized many of the ideas about money that I've formed after six years of nonstop reading, writing, talking and thinking about this topic.
In today's episode, I share the first part of this presentation. Today's episode focuses on myths, assumptions and limiting beliefs that we hold around money, work and life.
This is the first of a three-part series. In episodes 89 and 91, I'll share the second and third parts of the talk.

This is - by far - the best video about money I've ever seen. And I saw many. This should be shown in schools. Great work!
I was thinking how the information in this podcast was outstanding, until the final tip about the sabbatical. That one just blew my mind!!
I’ve been following the FIRE community for a couple years now, but this is the first time I hear of the sabbatical math. It got my head spinning with possibilities! 😮
You are a genius.
I have to laugh at your defence about being a landlord. It’s not all or nothing.
Renting is useful but your defence is a little unbalanced!
Hi London. Being a landlord is like any other job.
Let’s take for example a plumber, who shows up at one’s house with the tools they bought using their own money, and applies their expertise plus their time to solve a need we have.
Should they charge us more money beyond the price of what their tools cost??
Yes! Their expertise, time, and service merits a profit!
It’s the same thing with a landlord who uses their money to buy rental units, and uses their expertise and time to solve a need. They deserve to make a profit.
pointless drivel.
