The biggest mistake made by those who want to get rich is to think that cutting expenses will solve everything.
It won't.
You can save all your money on weekend pizza, you can cut out coffee, you can live counting pennies.
But do you know what will happen? Besides not getting rich, you will end up unhappy.
Saving is important. But if your life is all about cutting back, what’s left?
If everything is sacrifice, the feeling of progress is lost.
So I'm going to give you a solution to spend better, without having to cut anything:
Think about it, there are people who insist on having that chocolate after lunch and, every day, they go to the office supermarket and pay R$6 for a chocolate.
| DAY | R$ 6 |
| MONTH | R$ 132 |
| 1 YEAR | R$ 1,500 |
| 5 YEARS | R$ 8,000 |
| 10 YEARS | R$ 15,000 |
That chocolate that costs you R$6.00 per day will cost you R$15,000 in 10 years.
But, that same chocolate, wholesale, costs R$3.00.
If you buy the SAME chocolate wholesale and invest the difference (R$3.00 per day), in 10 years, you will have R$15,000 saved.
Do you see the difference?
But either way, that's not going to solve all your problems.
Here's the cold hard truth:
You won't get rich by saving pennies. Stop focusing on crumbs.
Want to get rich? Work. Increase your income.
Why?
Because there is a limit to how much you can cut, but there is no limit to how much you can gain.
If you earn R$5,000 per month and cut your expenses to the extreme, you might save R$500, R$1,000. But if you learn to earn more and double your income to R$10,000, your investment margin grows much more without having to give up everything.
The guy who focuses only on saving lives pruning his own life to fit into a tight budget. The guy who learns to earn more expands his own limits and builds real wealth.
And that's the game. It's not just about spending less, but about having more money to spend on what really makes sense.
