Be closer to the money. Sell what you do on your own. That’s a takeaway from Ali Abdaal’s latest video: “Getting Rich is a Game. Here’s How to Win.” Ali breaks down the 4 levels of the game, and points to sales as the main hurdle most people avoid. He argues the world has changed: No guaranteed stability or security at work.

An interesting one! Focus on creating value that people want more than their money. Exchange that value for money. This is the essence of the game as he explained it.
Good one ! If you cannot explain the value of your work simply, it is hard to sell and even harder to grow. In today’s world, knowing how to market yourself is just as important as the work itself. That is not sales, it is mere survival. Thanks for sharing, Andrejs Semjonovs

If you can’t sell it, you don’t own it. Harsh truth....but also the most freeing thing once you get it.
Andrejs Semjonovs In today’s world, where stability feels like a myth, mastering the art of selling ourselves isn’t just smart—it’s essential. Thanks for sharing this timely insight!
Spot on! Employers always look to cut costs. Your value needs to be crystal clear, and ideally, directly tied to revenue.
