Today, we're going to talk about the concept that motion is a crucial way to build wealth. This model of growing your money is a little different from what we've all been taught.
For those of you who are new to IBC, you can probably tell many things we suggest and do are different from conventional advice. To that point, one of the biggest things is the difference between people who let money lay dormant and people who keep their money in motion.
