Before you pay me anything
Who this is not for
Anybody can join. There’s no application, and I’m not going to pretend the door is harder to get through than it is. But some people should keep their money, and I would rather say so here than take it and disappoint them.
Do not join if
You want to get rich quickly
This is a ten-year plan on a good day. The single biggest lever in it took me one conversation, and the nine years before that conversation were me not noticing it existed. Wanting it faster does not make it faster.
You want stock picking
There are no tickers in the book and there won’t be any in the room. I don’t teach investing, I don’t pick stocks, and I’m not licensed to tell you what to buy. If that is what you are shopping for, this is the wrong room and you will be annoyed by week two.
You want to build a software business
Different sport. This is about what a salary can do once you actually look at it. If you’re trying to start a company, your problem isn’t the payslip and I would be a poor guide.
You want somebody else to do it
The book is a weekend of reading and then a lot of unglamorous months. Nobody in the room will run your numbers, have your compensation conversation, or move your money for you.
Where the system stops
Every framework has an edge. Here’s where this one has its edge, said now rather than left for you to find out in month three.
If your pay is set by a published band
Public sector, most academia, anywhere the salary sits in a table somebody else writes. What you’re paid and what you keep is still worth measuring, and the tax and structure work still applies. But the negotiation lever is capped there by policy rather than by the conversation, and that is the lever I am best at.
If you’re not in sales, know what you get and what you don’t
The wealth system doesn’t care what your job is. What your skills are worth. Whether you’re paid the market rate. The gap between employer cost and net pay. Same arithmetic for an engineer, a lawyer or a doctor. What is genuinely sales-flavoured: the commission mechanics, the quota language, and the longer plan to train and place salespeople in companies that pay properly. That plan isn’t running yet. When it does, it’ll help salespeople more than it helps you.
If you need proof the room produces results
It’s weeks old. Nobody has reached financial independence through it, and I won’t pretend otherwise. What’s happened so far is smaller than that, and it’s all written out in the FAQ. If you need a track record before you spend €29, wait. Come back when I have one.
If none of that is you
Then it is €29 a month and you can cancel in two clicks. Read what is in the book and the proof page first. Both are free, and both are written to help you say no.
