00:00I became a millionaire literally one day
00:02before I turned 20. so I can say that I
00:04was a millionaire as a teenager for one
00:07day and believe me I know it still looks
00:08like I'm a teenager but I'm actually 22
00:10years old and the things that I did as a
00:13teenager set me up potentially for the
00:15rest of my life and it's because of
00:16those things that I did within my teens
00:18that I now make millions of dollars per
00:20year now whether you're a teenager or
00:22literally any age I truly believe that
00:24these 10 money tips will help you a ton
00:26now in this video I'm going to be
00:27telling you the truth and sometimes the
00:29truth isn't necessarily what you want to
00:31hear and almost every single YouTube
00:32video that you watch out there is going
00:34to be telling you that the best way to
00:36become a millionaire is to invest your
00:37money in stocks in real estate and while
00:40that does work long term there's
00:41absolutely no way that you're going to
00:43become a millionaire in your teens by
00:45doing those things and that brings me
00:47into tip number one which is to focus on
00:49income you cannot save your way to
00:51becoming a millionaire as a teenager if
00:54you're not making a lot of money and if
00:56you make a lot of money you can both
00:57live an epic life and save a Time ton of
01:00money as well and trust me I know that
01:02feeling of being a teenager and not
01:04knowing what I was going to do with my
01:05life I dreaded here in my alarm clock go
01:07off every single day being forced to go
01:08to school learn about things that I
01:10really didn't want to learn about and
01:11I'm not knocking School whatsoever I
01:13think a lot of the people there have the
01:14best intentions for kids and they really
01:16do their best but I don't think it's a
01:18perfect fit for everybody and just
01:19telling you based off of my personal
01:20experience I hated it and then on top of
01:23that I had no idea what I wanted to do
01:24with my life so here I am having an
01:26existential crisis of sorts at only 14
01:28years old no idea what I was going to do
01:30but what I did see was that there's
01:32people on YouTube making millions of
01:33dollars traveling the world and they're
01:35at every age there was teenagers there
01:37was old people so this at least opened
01:39my mind that something else was possible
01:41and now let me ask you a question would
01:43you rather make three thousand dollars
01:44per month live on two thousand dollars a
01:46month and save a thousand dollars or
01:49would you rather make a hundred thousand
01:50dollars per month spend twenty thousand
01:52and live an epic life and save eighty
01:54thousand now obviously everybody's going
01:56to choose the second and I don't blame
01:58you I do as well but most people people
02:00don't even realize that that's possible
02:02and you might even be hearing my words
02:03right now not even letting it sink in
02:05that this is a possibility with the
02:07tools that you and I have access to
02:08online and obviously I'm biased because
02:10I made this video but I truly believe
02:12that watching videos just like this one
02:13are going to set you up for the long
02:15term so I do think it's a wise
02:16investment of your time and I'm here to
02:18tell you that this is possible and that
02:20brings me into tip number two which is
02:22to start an online business now starting
02:24a business is not for everybody by any
02:26means but with that being said if you're
02:29here watching this video right now
02:30you're probably the type of person who
02:32would benefit from at least considering
02:34starting an online business now the next
02:36obvious question that tormented me as a
02:38teenager was wondering what kind of
02:40business should I start there was
02:41thousands of options out there I had
02:43absolutely no idea what I wanted to do
02:45now check out this video right here to
02:47see what is in my opinion the smartest
02:49way to make ten thousand dollars per
02:50month online now basically what I did as
02:52a teenager was what I saw other people
02:55doing which was running YouTube channels
02:57but probably not in the way that you
02:59think you see I ran YouTube channels
03:01where I never even showed my face or
03:03stepped in front of a camera for a
03:04variety of reasons number one I was
03:06super awkward number two a lot of the
03:08YouTube channels that I watch were
03:09people who never even showed their face
03:11doing top 10 lists and stuff like that
03:13and that brings me to tip number three
03:15which is to learn a high income skill
03:17now there's a ton of high income skills
03:19out there and let me let you in on a
03:21little secret almost all of them can
03:23work you're gonna find people succeeding
03:25in almost every business model
03:26imaginable but with that all being said
03:28I do think some are smarter than others
03:31and the one that I personally chose as a
03:33teenager was running those faceless
03:35YouTube channels these are YouTube
03:37channels where you either make the
03:38videos or you pay other people to do
03:40them for you now since I was a broke
03:42teenager I obviously made them myself in
03:44the beginning recording the voiceovers
03:46myself writing the scripts and editing
03:48them together and uploading them online
03:49I basically treated YouTube as a game
03:51during this time period just trying to
03:53get incrementally better every single
03:55day making a new video every single day
03:57on my channel and the way it works is
03:59you upload those videos to YouTube you
04:01optimize them and then you make money
04:02from ads that YouTube puts on the videos
04:04and you get paid a percentage of that ad
04:06revenue and this is how I got to my
04:08first three thousand dollars per month
04:10online at the age of 15 doing all the
04:12work myself and the reason that I
04:13consider this a high income skill is
04:16because there's leverage you see you
04:18make the videos one time and those
04:20videos live in perpetuity into the
04:23future so people can literally watch
04:25your video five ten years from now and
04:27you'll still be paid from it in fact I
04:29still make money from videos that I
04:31uploaded back when I was just 15. now
04:33obviously I'm biased I think YouTube's
04:35one of the best high income skills out
04:36there that you can learn and if you do
04:38want to learn a little bit more about
04:39YouTube you can check out this video
04:41right here which shows how to do YouTube
04:42step by step it's basically a free
04:44course for you but there's a ton of high
04:46income skills out there and that brings
04:48me into tip number four which is
04:50thinking about the future you see many
04:52of us fall into predetermined roles that
04:54Society gives us and if you don't
04:56actively think about your future in your
04:58dreams then you'll most likely Fall in
04:59into helping someone else's dream become
05:01a reality and there's nothing wrong with
05:03that if that's what you want to do but
05:05if you're watching this video you're
05:06probably a little bit different and
05:07you're probably like me and if you
05:09really take the time to think about this
05:10especially as a teenager you might find
05:12that you have your own dreams that you
05:14want to make become a reality and
05:15something that helped me a lot as a
05:17teenager was imagining my life 10 years
05:19from now what would be the absolute
05:21ideal life and I imagine myself because
05:23I was 15 at the time at 25 years old
05:25having all of my dreams come true having
05:28bought a submarine which is one of my
05:29biggest dreams running huge profitable
05:31YouTube channels and getting a gold play
05:33button for getting over a million
05:34subscribers from YouTube which actually
05:36did end up happening and it's right
05:37there traveling the world buying a huge
05:39house having great friends and family
05:41and more so my recommendation is to set
05:43aside at least a little bit of time into
05:45thinking about what you really want in
05:47life because a lot of us just go through
05:49life doing one task that we're given
05:51after the next until eventually we lead
05:52a life that we're not completely
05:54fulfilled by so I do recommend thinking
05:56about this especially if you're young if
05:58you're a teenager this obviously applies
05:59that any age just think about the ideal
06:01life that you want take a day take a
06:03couple days to really think about this
06:04and write down what you want because
06:06it'll serve you for the rest of your
06:07life tip number five is to teach
06:10something now once you learn a high
06:11income skill in addition to actually
06:13doing that skill I also recommend
06:15teaching it as soon as possible now you
06:17might be asking Matt what do you mean by
06:19teaching it well what I simply mean is
06:21recording a course step by step showing
06:23exactly how to do what you know how to
06:25do and I recommend just taking a month
06:27recording videos step by step teaching
06:29everything you know about the skill that
06:30you learned and trust me this will be
06:32the most profitable month of your entire
06:34life you will make money from this if
06:36you do this right for years and years
06:38into the future and think about what a
06:40course is at the end of the day a course
06:42is just a collection of videos and can
06:44you download a screen recording software
06:45just like OBS to record your screen
06:47teaching something step by step of
06:50course you can and then can you put it
06:51up on a platform like kajabi integrate
06:53it with something like digistore24 for
06:55payment processing and sell it for a
06:57thousand dollars of course you can and
06:59this is something you only do once and
07:01this can serve you for the rest of your
07:03life and let's think about this
07:04logically now if you have a course for a
07:06thousand dollars and you sell a thousand
07:08copies of your course which really isn't
07:10too difficult to do if you do it right
07:12then boom you just made a million
07:13dollars now this in my opinion is the
07:16quickest and fastest way to a million
07:18dollars as a teenager but there's a huge
07:20caveat in this in that you have to know
07:23a skill to be able to do this and that's
07:25why I recommend if you don't already
07:27have a skill to go ahead and learn that
07:29skill first whether it be photo editing
07:31video editing or something else entirely
07:33that you know about that other people
07:34want to learn about and you can
07:36literally just search on YouTube to see
07:37if other people want to learn about
07:39something you already know and if they
07:40do I highly recommend making a course
07:42and then come back to this video once
07:44you've made a million dollars and say
07:45Matt thank you now YouTube is how I made
07:47my first million dollars and selling
07:49courses is how I made my next six
07:51million now you might be saying Matt
07:52that's great and all but as a teenager
07:54do I really have the authority to teach
07:57other people something and that brings
07:58me to tip number 6 which is to not let
08:01age be a limiting factor as long as you
08:03know one percent more than most people
08:05on a given subject then you can teach it
08:07now when I started doing YouTube when I
08:09was 15 I started making 5 000 a month
08:11when I was 16 I started making 9 000 a
08:13month and it gradually went up to the
08:15point I'm making thirty thousand dollars
08:16a month more than my parents more than
08:18my friends I had a lot of people asking
08:20me to teach them what I knew so I showed
08:22some of them individually but what I
08:23noticed was that there's a cap on my
08:25time I can only show so many people how
08:26to do what I know how to do one at a
08:28time and by making a course I created
08:30leverage in that it can sell forever and
08:32I can be teaching people even when I'm
08:34sleeping and the reason I put off making
08:36a course or teaching for so long was
08:38because I didn't have the biggest
08:39YouTube channel on the platform so I
08:41figured you know what I'm not qualified
08:43to teach this if I'm not running a
08:44Channel with millions of subscribers and
08:46if I'm not as big as PewDiePie for
08:48example but what I didn't realize was
08:49that there's millions of people who know
08:51less than me who I can help get to the
08:53point where I'm at and Beyond in fact
08:55I've helped some students go past me to
08:57the point they're making more money than
08:59I am from YouTube and it's at that point
09:00where I don't have anything left to
09:02teach them and they can actually teach
09:03me some things then in regards to
09:05YouTube now as a teenager or if you're
09:06in your early 20s we don't have the
09:08authority to teach a lot of things in
09:10our life and I fully admit that I'm not
09:12going to sit here and pretend like I
09:13have life completely figured out I know
09:15for a fact that I could learn a lot
09:17about a lot of different subjects from
09:18you who's watching this video right now
09:20but my advice is to not let the fact
09:22that you don't know everything about
09:24every subject stop you from teaching
09:26something that you do actually know
09:28about and even if you're not the world's
09:30most leading expert on that topic you
09:32can still help people get to the point
09:34where you're at and Beyond and now that
09:36brings me to another point which I think
09:37is insanely important which is that I
09:40get a lot of DMS and emails from people
09:41who are teenagers or younger people and
09:44they tell me Matt I'm gonna wait till
09:45I'm an adult or I'm going to wait till
09:47this date or that date to start my
09:48YouTube channel start my business and lo
09:51and behold what usually happens is that
09:52date comes and passes and they never
09:54start their YouTube channel and that's
09:55totally fine everybody can do what they
09:57want I understand priorities change and
09:59everything but that brings me into tip
10:01number seven which is to not fall into
10:03the Trap of someday now a lot of us say
10:05that we want to do things in life and I
10:07know I'm guilty of this but if we don't
10:09actually do them we might as well not be
10:11able to do them at all and we might like
10:13to entertain the thought that I could
10:14start a YouTube channel I could start
10:16this business if I really wanted to but
10:18in a lot of ways I believe that that's
10:19our subconscious tricking us into not
10:21taking any action at all because we
10:23think that's just believing it's
10:24possible is enough and we don't have to
10:26do anything beyond that now it sucks to
10:27admit this but I've wasted a lot of time
10:29in my teenage years especially waiting
10:32for the perfect time to start different
10:33projects or do what I wanted to do but
10:35let me tell you the perfect time never
10:37comes and someday never comes you will
10:40never have all the information and you
10:41will never be completely ready to do
10:43what you want to do in your life and at
10:45a certain point you have to say screw it
10:48I'm taking action right now I'm gonna
10:50start my YouTube Channel right now I'm
10:52gonna take action and make my first
10:53video even though it might not be the
10:55best maybe it is great maybe it does get
10:57millions of views maybe it doesn't maybe
10:58it's a learning point where you get data
11:00that you implement later and then you
11:01get millions of views and then before
11:02you know it you have a hundred thousand
11:03subscribers in a thriving business and
11:05you look back at all the other people
11:07who are going back and forth should I
11:08start this business or this YouTube
11:09channel is now the best time to do it oh
11:11I've got other obligations I can't focus
11:13on that right now it's never going to be
11:14a perfect time and you're never going to
11:16be ready and what I want this video to
11:18be a catalyst for you no matter what
11:19you're thinking about within your life I
11:20think this applies to a lot of things
11:22it's for you to go down either one or
11:24two pass but avoid a third path by all
11:27means and that third path to avoid by
11:29all means is indecision I want you to
11:31make a decision on something you've been
11:33thinking about doing with your life so
11:34this video can actually be practical and
11:36how help you in your life right now take
11:38something you've been thinking about
11:39doing and spend a couple minutes to an
11:41hour thinking about am I really ever
11:43going to do this and if the answer is no
11:45or if you don't think you are I would
11:46just fully admit to yourself hey I'm not
11:48going to do this or if it's something
11:50you truly want to do no matter what
11:52please take the first step in making
11:54that happen you'll be happy you did life
11:56is short our time here is short a lot of
11:58people let a lot of time go by myself
12:00included on a lot of stuff that we've
12:01always wanted to do and for a lot of us
12:03that time never comes and I don't want
12:05that to happen to you especially if
12:06there's something important in your life
12:07that you want to do so please if you're
12:09a teenager or any age and you're
12:11thinking about doing something that you
12:13really want to do do it now and let's
12:14say that's something that you want to do
12:16is to start an online business for
12:18example and eventually the goal from
12:19that online business is to make a bunch
12:21of money and when you do then that
12:22brings me into money tip number eight
12:24which is to reinvest back into your
12:26business first before you go out there
12:28and invest in all the different shiny
12:30objects that are out there like stocks
12:32real estate crypto my recommendation is
12:34to consider investing in what got you
12:36that money in the first place so for me
12:38for example that meant reinvesting back
12:40into my YouTube channels that were
12:41actually making me money and practically
12:43how I did this was by hiring people to
12:45help make the videos for me and that's
12:46what actually brought me from three
12:47thousand dollars a month to nine
12:49thousand dollars per month two over the
12:51next few years thirty thousand per month
12:52but at a certain point I do recommend
12:54diversifying your Investments and that
12:56brings me into tip number nine which is
12:58to invest after making lots of money and
13:01the key word here is lots of money once
13:04you're making ten to fifty thousand
13:05dollars per month I personally would
13:07consider putting some of that into some
13:09Investments that you think are good so
13:11for example for me that meant putting
13:12money into index funds that tracked the
13:15S P 500 for example schb and these are
13:18just long-term Investments that'll grow
13:19your wealth long term so you'll
13:20hopefully outpace inflation and build
13:22your wealth for the long term now I'm
13:24not a financial advisor don't take this
13:26as Financial advice take it for what
13:28it's worth but I'm just sharing what I'm
13:29personally doing tip number 10 is to
13:31remember that it's never too late all
13:33this advice that I'm giving you applies
13:35if you're 15 years old or 115 years old
13:38I believe everybody has something to
13:39offer to the world and if you want to
13:41discover what is in my opinion the best
13:43way to make ten thousand dollars per
13:44month online then check out this video
13:46next to me right here it shows the
13:48method step by step and it shows me
