What Is Authority Building?
Chakras are the body’s main energy centers. Most teachers today include seven of them. Other models include 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, or 13. Whichever model you choose, “the chakras” are considered the most important of 100s (or even 1000s) of energy centers in our bodies.
My Two Cents
Money is one of my Tier 1 Topics.
That makes it an entrance to many rabbit holes.
These profiles are largely for me. I use them to record and reference. In the future, I may make them more meaningful to the outside observer.
No guarantees. Let’s start small.
The Basis of Commerce
This is an odd way to put it. But it’s the only phrase that captures the entire bucket. Gary thinks like a Scorpio.
Plans to Destroy It
Many of my heroes talk about company culture. Gary’s idea of a “Honey Empire” is one of the best.
A Game to Be Played
Most people know Gary as “that social media guy.” Makes sense. He’s one of—if not the—best at it on the planet.
Not the Root of Evil
Gary wants to buy the Jets. Big dream, but he has a practical plan for it. Luckily, he is documenting the journey.
For the time being, this site is mostly just a data dump. Over time, it may become more useful to the outside observer. Who knows?
How I Think About Authority Building
For me, Money Mastery is basically one half of the overall Money puzzle.
On the same level, I have Economics. It’s the practical side whereas Economics is more about curiosity.
It has many sub categories, already 4 or 5 tiers deep–and growing as more knowledge does. Like it’s parent category, I break Money Mastery into two big chunks… Playing Markets and Financial Literacy.
Here’s a quick look at those.
Playing
Markets
There is a lot that goes into. I can’t make up my mind whether to focus on the writing or the designing. I guess it doesn’t matter. The daily content challenge marches on.

My Top Three Authority Building Teachers
I stand on the shoulders of giants.
As I chase after true money mastery, I’ve constantly got an eye out for perspectives.
These are the three who have made the biggest impact on me to date.
Learn With Me
Most people know Gary as “that social media guy.”
For me personally, he’s a lot more.
But I’ll get to that. First, let’s start with a…

My Progress So Far
More than anyone else:
Gary is the reason I started creating hero profiles.
Now that I’ve started, I see that his profile may be less useful than my other heroes to other people. But his will likely always remain the most important to me.
I fucking love this dude. He changed my life.
More accurately, he teamed up with Nahko to save my life.
I’m not quite sure when I found him. I featured him all the way back in one of my first posts for Greensboro SEO Pro.

2020 Content Challenge Week 28 Review: Coach on the Field
This week we got back in business. A bit sloppy—we still made a few mistakes this quarter. Yet it was still a vast improvement over the last five or so. We only had one dropped ball all quarter (yesterday). We'll have to tighten up a bit more to complete the comeback...
2020 Content Challenge Week 27 Review: Missed Hand Offs
This was not the "bounce back" week we were looking for. After not showing up for the last four quarters, we were hoping for a strong showing to start the game. It was not to be. Close but not quite. It might have even been something special. The play calling was...
2020 Content Challenge Week 26 Review: Strategic Surrender
This might have been our last bad quarter of the whole season. It hurt a little bit, as this entire game has. But that seems like it was all for the best. At least, we have the opportunity to make that the reality. Looking back, we'll be able to say this...
2020 Content Challenge Week 25 Review: Out with a Whimper
This week we made it clear: We intend to go out with whimper. We've been running on about 50% for this whole game. For over five months, I pushed out new content everyday. But in the last few weeks, I've struggled to produce for even two days in row. 😩😭🙄 Kinda'...
2020 Content Challenge Week 24 Review: Let Down
I haven't had a quarter this bad since the season started. We thought the last two weeks were ugly. But now we're on our way to a true Blow Out. I don't even know if we've scored yet. We could probably call this one something like 35-0 going into halftime. 😂😅😭 That's...
2020 Content Challenge Week 23 Review: No Effort
This week got ugly. It was the type of quarter you wish you could just do over. The market continues melting up. Meanwhile, we almost hit capitulation. I barely even made a move to look at my content this week—much less actually work on any of it. To be honest, I'm on...
2020 Content Challenge Week 22 Review: Blow Out Cont’d
There goes my undefeated season. 👎📉😞 With back to back weeks with broken streaks, it'd be just about impossible to call this one a win. I might have gotten a lot done. But I didn't get the right things done. A lot of working while watching protests this week. 👀👀👀 Not...
2020 Content Challenge Week 21 Review: Blow Out
(5/31/2020 Update: Original Name: Barn Burner) This week, we realized what this game is: A true barn burner. Like I touched on last week, my to-do is currently in infinite expansion mode. I'm knocking stuff out relentlessly only to look up and see the goal posts have...
2020 Content Challenge Week 20 Review: Table Turner
This week was similar to last week. But it feels so different. If we got blown out last week, we definitely turned the tables on this one. Or maybe, it's just been a high scoring game all along. I'm not sure whether we actually Got Dragged last week or whether we've...
