In this episode Neil and Eric dive into the “millionaire vs billionaire mindset” exploring how wealth strategies evolve as fortunes climb, and why billionaires aim for monopoly power and pricing control rather than just accumulation.
Key takeaways:
• Millionaires build, grow and often exit.
• Deca-millionaires (tens of millions) may sell or bank for the next cycle.
• Billionaires find an unfair competitive advantage, build pricing power, and scale forever.
