3 Habits That Keep Most Americans Broke ...

About this episode

“If you’re broke, you’re making someone else rich. Let’s break that cycle.”

Jaspreet dives into the three destructive habits keeping so many Americans stuck financially—and how to break free. If you’re tired of living paycheck to paycheck, these insights will help you shift your mindset, build wealth, and take control of your financial future.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Habit #1: Operating on emotion instead of logic—how spending for instant gratification keeps you trapped.
  • Habit #2: Mastering formal education but neglecting financial education—why your degree won’t make you wealthy, but smart investments will.
  • Habit #3: Letting fear stop you—why playing it safe financially is the riskiest move of all.

Jaspreet gets real about the sacrifices needed to succeed, the mindset shifts necessary to thrive, and why you need to stop caring about what others think.
