True wealth comes from time, from mobility and not just
from money. Those who are able to understand this and
master the two new currencies of wealth are called by Tim
as the "new rich." A dream life is often much cheaper than
you think. Your dreams can be things like travel around
the world, learn something incredible or take time for
your hobbies and they are not things that only
millionaires do.
These things are also available to the new rich, and it does
not cost millions to enjoy them. This is one of the main
truths of the book: people do not necessarily want to be
millionaires, but to experience things that only millions
can buy. The book is focused on having a "new rich"
lifestyle, without having a million dollars and with time
and mobility. Of course, you probably will not be able to
replicate each of the practices he recommends to have the
same results, but he proposes that instead of waiting
passively for things to happen, you become a dealmaker, a
person capable of creating new opportunities. You need to
write your own rules and always dream high.

Do it Now
With more time on the agenda, it's time to try out new
ideas and create new revenue streams. For this, the first
thing you need is a product. You can also sell a product
that is already in the market, and this is very easy, but the
potential profits are much smaller. Creating your own
product is much easier than most people think. But before
you choose a product and start making it, you need to
know if your potential customer base is large enough for
you to actually earn money. To test the marketplace, offer
your hypothetical product to real customers. The easiest
way to do this test is to create a virtual store in which,
when people click to buy, it shows a message that the
product is out of stock and an apology. This serves to
mark out people's interest in the product. It is also
important to get the email from all interested parties
because when the product is available, you can try to sell
to them again. You can also test a product by buying ad
campaigns on Google. Create multiple ads for your
product, see which leads more people to buy and so you
discover how much you would need to spend on
marketing to sell a unit of your product.

Final Notes:
Forget the conventional, the work routine from 9am to
5pm and its long career toward retirement. You need to
redefine yourself to live the now, to know that it is
possible to draw from scratch the lifestyle you want to
live. Escape from mediocrity if you do not want to have a
mediocre life, focus on doing amazing things, after all,
there is less competition at the top.
