At 55, I’ve learned powerful money and life lessons the hard way. In this video, I share 25 lessons I wish I knew before 40 — lessons about wealth, discipline, time, and choices that shape your future.

From building wealth early, avoiding debt, and valuing time, to patience, discipline, and surrounding yourself with the right people — these 25 lessons can save you decades of mistakes.

If you’re in your 20s, 30s, or 40s, this is the advice I’d give my younger self.
