People will grind 60 hours a week chasing a paycheck, then let that money sit idle in a checking account earning nothing.

They optimize their career. They negotiate salary. They hustle for bonuses.

But they never ask: what should this money actually be doing?

It's like training for a marathon and then never running the race. All that effort to earn it, zero strategy for what comes next.

The gap between earning and deploying is where most wealth gets lost. Not to bad investments. Just to inertia.
