If you work all year and have nothing to show for it, something is broken, and it is not you. It is the system you are using.
In this episode, I break down the concept of paying yourself first and why saving whatever is left never works. We talk about stewardship, discipline, growth, and why money always flows toward people who know how to manage it.
There is no perfect financial plan. The plan that works is the one you believe in and execute consistently over time. Wealth is not about intelligence. It is about mastery.
Key idea:
Pay yourself first or you will spend your entire life paying everyone else.
Take action: Start with a small automatic amount and pay yourself before anything else.
If this helped you, follow the show and share it with someone you care about.

EP 38 is here and this one matters. We all see the headlines about artificial intelligence, layoffs, automation, fear, and uncertainty. But the truth is that AI is also creating the biggest opportunity of our lifetime if we choose to learn how to use it.
In this episode, I walk through exactly how AI can help you:
• Make more money
• Buy back your time
• Become more efficient
• Create new income streams
• Improve your career
• Design a life with more freedom and joy
I share personal examples of how I have used AI in my business, in content creation, and in building systems. I explain why most people misunderstand AI, how fear is holding people back, and why your future depends on whether you learn how to use these tools.
AI is not here to replace your life. It is here to enhance it if you choose to embrace it.
The world is changing fast. This episode gives you the direction and clarity to stay ahead of the curve.
Be the master.
In today’s episode of The Jared Briggs Show, I challenge the idea that there’s one right way to handle money or live a successful life.
I share a conversation with someone who built wealth through 401(k)s and minimal spending, and how that contrasts completely with the way my wife and I approach financial planning. We talk about finding your own truth, questioning every influence around you, and learning what’s really important to you — experiences, peace, and freedom.
We also touch on the idea of deinfluencing the influencers and how to take control of your thinking in a world full of noise and misinformation.
At the end of the day, it’s not about following the crowd. It’s about being the master of your life.
Listen now and share your thoughts: what’s more important to you, financial security or a life full of experiences?
Is the American Dream really dead? Or have we just forgotten how to chase it?

How to find motivation again when you feel stuck

Listen, reflect, and take back control of your future.
Be the master of your money. Be the master of your mindset. Be the master of your life.
