If You Want to Get Rich, Stop Buying These 5 Things | Charlie Munger

Most people don’t stay broke because they earn too little.
They stay broke because they keep buying the wrong things.
In this video, we break down 5 everyday purchases that quietly destroy wealth — not overnight, but year after year, through opportunity cost, lifestyle inflation, and interrupted compounding.
This isn’t about being cheap.
It’s about understanding which expenses buy freedom — and which ones steal it.
You’ll learn:
• Why status spending is a hidden tax on your future
• How “normal” purchases silently lock you into stress and pressure
• What wealthy people actually buy instead — and why it compounds
• How to redesign your spending so money works for you, not against you
If you want real wealth — not the appearance of it — this video will permanently change how you see money.
