EP16: Money Master the Game Part 3
What is the price of your dreams? In this episode we unpack part three of Tony Robbins's book "Money Master the Game." Here he asks you to put a number to your future needs. And does this in four 'tiers' - starting from survival all the way up to no limits. In the spirit of the quote, "Defining the problem is half the solution," we talk about how powerful this simple step is for gaining clarity and moving forward. In other news Matt talks about his golf game, and John avoids talking about his non-existent golf game, but also throws his wife under the bus a little bit (only a little though).
