Volatility vs. Risk | Ep 533

ALEX HORMOZI
About this episode

Wealth is not a number, it’s a ratio.” Today, Alex (@AlexHormozi) talks about a conversation he had with one of his salespeople on how they can increase their wealth by knowing the difference between volatility and risk as well as some practical plans of action that are way more fulfilling than what people think ultra-wealthy is all about.
