When it comes to financial success, there are two types of players: those stuck in the poverty game and those thriving in the wealth game. But here’s the truth: the poverty game is rigged, and no one wins. Let’s explore why owning assets—especially property—can shift you to the winning side.


The Rigged Poverty Game

For families relying solely on their job income, the poverty game feels like a never-ending struggle. Jobs provide income, but without assets, there’s no long-term financial growth. Worse, the gap between what people earn and the value of what they need to buy, like property, is growing wider.

Take a moment to think about this:

  • In the last 12 months, property values have increased at nearly twice the rate of wages.
  • Over the past five years, property prices have grown at three times the speed of wage increases.

If you’re not owning and growing assets, the game is working against you.


What is the Wealth Game?

The wealth game flips the script. It’s not just about earning from your job—it’s about using that income to build a portfolio of valuable assets, like property.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Start with Property One: Buy your first property and watch its value grow over time.
  2. Leverage Equity: Use the growth in Property One to help finance Property Two.
  3. Repeat the Cycle: Continue building your portfolio—Property Three, Property Four, and beyond.

Each property creates equity, which can then be used to buy more assets. Your assets work for you, compounding wealth over time.


Real-Life Wins from TMAP Students

At Teach Me About Property (TMAP), the results speak for themselves. Some of our top students are approaching $5,000,000 in equity. These families started just like many others—dreaming of financial security but unsure of the path. By following our proven strategies, they’ve shifted from surviving to thriving in the wealth game.


Why It’s Worth Playing the Wealth Game

Winning at this game isn’t easy, but it’s achievable. Owning your first property can feel daunting, but that’s the key to unlocking more opportunities. Each property you own builds equity, which opens doors to further investments.

This isn’t about luck; it’s about strategy. The poverty game keeps you running in place, but the wealth game moves you forward, helping you create a legacy of financial freedom for your family.
