Welcome back to another episode of Attractive Mindset — and today’s episode is one of those timeless, mindset-shifting conversations.
Rich sits down once again with Wasi Akin, founder of Skip Skool University and Options Snipers, to talk about teaching kids the real rules of money — and why the next generation needs new financial systems that schools never taught us.

This conversation goes from faith to finance, from education to evolution, and ends in one of the best debates ever about the stock market vs. real-world survival.

If you’re ready to think bigger — about legacy, wealth, and purpose — this episode is for you.
