 How did this guy make one million dollars before his 18th birthday party? The answer is coming up All right, here I am with Matt Posseous Million dollars. How did you make a million bucks before 18? I mean back when I was 18 so that was not before 18, but I mean I did a lot of stuff I tried a lot of stuff and it wasn't like I made that overnight Sorry, my first business at 13 and it took me one year to make one thousand dollars in a month It took some time and I remember it took me five months to make my first commission It was four dollars fifty-three cents Wow, then actually I made another sale and then a day after that the person who bought the second Product refunded that purchase. I'm like, come on really and the worst part was that There was because we swear affiliate sale there was a threshold of one hundred dollars, so I never got paid Wow So you were making these sales as an affiliate is that right and an affiliate if you don't know is when you're selling someone else's Products so who's what products were you selling? I think you're 13 hours? I was I was doing SEO and I was I would go to click bang calm Which is the biggest marketplace for information products. That's where I sells 67 stuff as well That's where I sell my 30 day no alcohol challenge And we're actually at the home of Tai Lopez here in Beverly Hills, and he sells his 67 steps on quick bank. Can you Yeah, yeah, so that was one of my first ventures before that. I also did forex You don't know what process or trading. Yeah. Yeah for an exchange currencies So I did a lot of that. I wasn't good at it But I did not like it because the forex if you make money and you get excited about it I mean it's bad because then you like oh, I just made a fast bus and you think you're good, right? Yeah, and then Lots of sorrow inevitable When you trade forex, so you are going to lose and then you're like, oh my god lost money Because you get excited right? Yeah, so you have to completely get it attached from winning or losing Then you're trading forex, so I did not like that. Oh, well, it's good at it. So like I'll drop it then I did a lot of after I did Amazon I did I collected database of a million people. So that was a part of it Then I did consulting about how I did how it did How I went past the database and how to collect it one. So I did a lot of that So all those things combined you got up to a million dollars when you were 18. Yeah Yeah, so it wasn't like I made all of that like 18 I made some of it before but like most of it was when I was 18 Gotcha, and most of that was from Amazon. So I made four hundred sixty thousand dollars in two weeks $460,000 in two weeks. Yeah, that was during the holiday season before Christmas and that was selling someone else's products Oh, that was yeah. Yeah, I sold times a thousand products I sold everything you can see here chairs desks DVDs books forks knives refrigerators kitchen appliances anything you can think of I probably sold it Wow and What's the lesson that you learned that you could pass on to the viewer here like what the viewer is struggling just getting by You know job, whatever. What's the lesson? lesson that I learned for myself Especially when I was doing Amazon, I would say keep the main thing the main thing for example I was making ten thousand dollars a month from from just one adventure And it's good. It was going good at one point when I was 17 It was me ten thousand dollars a month and I'm like wow, you know people talk about the four-hour work week I was living the four-hour work month. Yeah So it was completely automated and that made me lazy and I'm like I really I can retire And I kind of retired 17 which sounds crazy So I didn't like nothing for three months. The first month was awesome second month like Fair month like I need to get to start do something before month. I got depressed really yeah So I like I got to do something and I started doing everything But what happened then you know, I was making ten thousand dollars a month from that business And I just made four hundred sixty thousand dollars from Amazon In two weeks and that business it's been down from ten thousand dollars a month to Four thousand and I was like I think we can get it back up because it was making money about me doing anything And it's going to be making money for maybe ten ten years, but I Should how focus more on Amazon I mean more money from that because I spent a few weeks just just building that business back up and I did that But when I'm like, how did I do that? I got this business back up to ten thousand dollars a month But I could have made a few hundred thousand dollars from Amazon, right? So keep a main thing the main thing And this example it'd be sound silly and it is but when it's when you're actually doing it like even right now You know, perhaps you are I don't know, you know, let's say you are in the sales or you're trying to get a product out Focus on like the main thing. What's the one thing that's making a difference? And just just an extra like focus on just about one thing and forget about everything else. All right. There you go Matt post.
