If I could go back and talk to the 17-year-old me… I’d say this: All the bad things happening to you right now… They’ll turn out to be the reason your life gets better. Because bad luck and good luck are still both luck. It’s what you do with them that matters. Growth only comes from pain and discomfort. So to be lucky… You have to be unlucky. That’s how I think most people actually find purpose. You go through something… Something that hurts. And you realise you never want anyone else to go through that. That’s why I’m obsessed with fixing the education system. It failed me when I left school at 15. That’s why I help people for free. Because no one helped me when I was starting out. And that’s why I push so hard to make people believe in themselves. Because nobody believed I could be an entrepreneur and it turns out, I’m a pretty good one. Everything I do now… It’s just me trying to help that younger version of me. And maybe help someone else who needs to hear this too.

I sold out. 5 years of building my audience… Sharing everything I know for free. And now I’m releasing a course. It’s my knowledge, so why shouldn’t I make money from it? So what if other people gave me their knowledge for free when I needed help? It’s mine now. I can charge for it. So what if I’m a millionaire and this knowledge could actually help people who are struggling? I need money too. So what if I’m charging for it? If I gave it away for free, no one would value it anyway, right? If you haven’t guessed by now… I’m being sarcastic. I am releasing a course. But of course, it’s free. Like all of my knowledge. It always will be. Because I hate the idea of millionaires, who don’t need the money... Charging desperate people for help. People who are genuinely trying. Who have been failed by the education system. They could be kids, single parents. People stuck in dead-end jobs with no way out. How can you sit in your mansion and justify charging those people for help? If a kid came up to you in person and asked for advice… would you seriously tell them to pay for it? That’s why I will never charge for help. And I will never sell a course. Instead, you can get my “course” for free here https://lnkd.in/eJQMB223 My course isn't a traditional course though. It's my newsletter. Filled with my very best, actionable knowledge. That you can use, to help build your dream. And just for good measure.... IT'S FREE! 🤣

6 months ago, it was New Year’s Eve. Remember when you said “This is the year I change my life.” Half the year is gone. So let me ask you… What have you actually done? Be honest. Is it enough? Is it even close? Because if it’s not. this should be your wake up call. You’re not too late. You’ve got 6 months left. But if you keep going the way you have been… You’ll sacrifice your dream. People will tell you “there’s plenty of time.” That you’ll live to 80. That it’s okay to wait. They’re lying to you. The world is changing fast. AI is rewriting everything. And right now, today, is the best moment in human history to build wealth, freedom, and purpose. So don’t waste another second. Make the next 6 months count. Start building the life you actually want not the one you keep pretending you’re working on. Tomorrow is day one. You can learn how to make your dream come true by reading my book here - https://mybook.to/DbzLnE

This is the number 1 biggest thing you have to do to be successful: Take risk. I know it can be daunting. But I promise you, it’s worth it. Because without risk… You simply won’t make it. I used to think I was just unlucky. That some people were chosen. And I wasn’t one of them. But I was wrong. And not just wrong... I was MAKING myself unlucky. By believing I wasn’t lucky,... I scared myself out of taking risks. And risk, is what creates luck.

It’s simple but…. If you help everyone for free… Everyone can help you for free. But if you charge everyone… Everyone will charge you too. Once, my lawnmower broke. I took it to a local mechanic to pay for it to be fixed. But he just smiled and said, “I love what you do. Let me fix it… for free.” That moment hit me. Helping a stranger years ago somehow fixed my lawnmower. Kindness has consequences. Beautiful ones. So no. You shouldn’t help people just for what you’ll get back. But I want the world to see what happens when you do help. That’s what my book is about. The Give Without Take mentality. The philosophy that helping people for free… can change the world. Even the money I make from the book is going back into helping more people. For free. If you believe in this mission or even if you’re just curious about it… You can get the book here 👉 https://simonsquibb.com It could help someone’s dream come true. Maybe even yours.

Ever wondered what life as a millionaire is like? Yesterday was wild. Here’s a peek: 10am – Filmed a Shopify ad 11am – TikTok Live 11:30am – Helped a dreamer @razalph with £1,000 to kickstart his idea 12pm – Lunch with Jamie Oliver 2pm – Helped another dreamer with their brand “Snaffle” (big things coming… Jamie Oliver’s weighing in too 👀) 3pm – Gave @kemisnotcool £1,000 to chase his dream 3:45pm – Met 250+ people at Carnaby Street, heard their dreams, made a YouTube vid about it 5pm – TV call with my US partners about “60 Day Hustle” + a new Netflix show 6pm – Met with my team to plan next steps for HelpBnk I am SHATTERED. But I loved every second of it. This is why “work-life balance” is a lie. This is my life. And I love it. Tomorrow I’ll chill with my son and tell him all about it. Some times I'm required to spend more time "working". Other times I can spend more times with my family. Trying to "balance" it myself with ridged schedules is impossible. It come's naturally and that's the way it should be.

I’ve had the craziest last 2 weeks… I found myself at Buckingham Palace meeting the Duke of Edinburgh. I sat with Richard Branson talking about entrepreneurship. Had lunch with Jamie Oliver. Received my webby award. Three completely different people. But they all had the same thing in common: They’re grounded. They care… And they’re using their success to help others. None of them spoke about money. But all of them spoke about purpose. About building something that makes the world better. Some might say “Yeah, but they can be like that… they’re rich.” But that’s false. They’re rich because they’ve always been like that. In my own experience, the more I focused on helping people, the more the money followed. And that’s the secret most people miss. Purpose isn’t something you wait for after you make money. It’s the thing that gets you through the hard days when building to that success. Ask yourself: What are you waking up for? Because money comes and goes. But purpose sticks with you and takes you further than you ever imagined.

Kids don’t do what you say. They do what you do. If you want the best for your kids, stop telling them what to do... And start showing them. Right now, I’m 10kg overweight. For the past 5 years, I've been fully focused on my family and the mission to free humanity. But I’m determined to get fit again. And guess who’s watching? My son. He’s started joining me in the gym. He’s lifting little weights, right next to me. And did I tell him to? Nope. He couldn't care less what I say about health or discipline. He learns by watching me live it. There’s no such thing as work-life balance. There’s just life. And if you keep using your kids as an excuse to not chase your dreams… One day, they’ll do the same. That’s how you give them the best shot. Not by telling them what’s possible. But by proving it is.

I’ve asked thousands of people… “What’s your dream?” And despite this study. Most say to ‘work.’ Run a coffee shop, become an actor, design clothes. Yet 85% of people hate the work they do. So if most people dream of work… Yet hate the work they’re doing… 👉Something is seriously broken👈 Why doesn’t the media push fulfilling work the way they push smoking warnings? Instead they tell you that starting a business is “risky” and “stressful” Lies. If you don’t love what you’re doing, you’re already risking the biggest asset you have. Your life. There’s a reason Warren Buffett is still not retired, yet going strong at 94. It’s purpose that keeps you alive. Photo credit: Pubity

I’m not Mr. Beast. I don't like when people compare me to him. I appreciate it. But I'm not. This week I gave 200 people a life-changing opportunity. But it’s not a game show. There was no script or engagement farming. This was real. Real people with real dreams. And a REAL life changing opportunity. One shot to stand in front of me and pitch the thing they care about most. No cuts and retakes. No second chances. Some froze. Some smashed it. And it shows you why you should ALWAYS be ready to pitch your dream. You never know when your moment will come. A stranger who knows someone who knows someone. Or a crazy millionaire asking “what’s your dream?” You always need to be prepared. So yes, this video might feel entertaining. There’s tension. Emotion. Drama. But underneath all of that is a lesson. Your dream depends on your ability to communicate it. Learn from these people’s mistakes. Learn from their success. You never know when a millionaire will ask you what your dream is.

Elmo just got laid off. 45 years at Sesame Street… Gone in an instant. No equity. No backup. Nothing to show for it. But Elmo did everything “right.” He played it safe. Got a steady job. And followed orders like a literal puppet. And for what? THIS is why jobs are more risky than starting a business. We’ve been fed the same lie our whole lives: “Get a good job, and you’ll be safe.” Elmo was the HEART of Sesame Street. A global icon. And overnight… he lost it all. So what makes you think your jobs safe? Elmo, if you’re reading this… I’ve got you. You’ve spent long enough being someone’s puppet. Let’s build your business and finally set you free. DM me.

Why I HAD to boycott the Webbys. And lose out on my award 😕 I was looking forward to the ceremony. I had my 5 word speech scribbled on the back of my hand… I was ready to ask Snoop Dogg his dream. Until they told me I had to buy my table. Between the table, the flight, and the hotel… It would’ve cost me $15,000! Now maybe you’re thinking…. “Pfttt… I thought he was a millionaire?!” But if you know me. You’ll know I still act like I’m poor. That’s the secret to staying rich. Not splashing money on cars or watches that will just end up owning you. $15,000 could literally change a life. I’d rather give the money away to someone that needs it. Because at the end of the day. An award doesn’t really matter. But someone’s dream does. So instead… my team bought me a slinky. And now it’ll forever sit on my shelf… As a reminder that a piece of metal, isn’t what’s important. It’s the impact on others that is.

The problem isn’t vaping. It’s role models. Kids don’t just wake up and decide to puff on this sh*t. They copy what they see. Life’s hard. We’re all living it for the first time… So we follow what feels familiar. And right now, this is what’s being sold as cool. I’m not the coolest guy in the world. I don’t have chains and fast cars. But I do know that vaping is f*cking lame. Not just because it kills you. (We’re desensitised to that.) But because of what it takes from you: Your money. Your energy. Your ambition. Your potential. The line between success and failure can be thin. And these effects could be the difference from a life you love… To a life you don’t. And for what? To puff on a flavoured stick and call it a personality? We need to make self-belief look cooler than self-destruction. Because what we normalise is what they’ll copy.

It’s 5:30am on a bank holiday… And I’m working. I’m a millionaire. I don’t have to work. I’ve made more money working less before. But I’ve never worked harder than I do now. Not because I believe “the harder you work, the luckier you get.” I don’t. That line is bullsh\*t. I’m working because I want to. Because I love it. This week I’ll clock 80+ hours and not one will feel like a chore. Right now, I’m watching doorbell pitches for the Dream Machine. It’s not work for me. It’s why I’m alive. I start early so I can eat breakfast with my son by 8am. That’s success to me. But don’t copy me. Just find something that matters. Because success has nothing to do with how many hours you work. And everything to do with how much you love the hours you do.

2014: Posting skincare tips on Instagram 2022: Launched Rhode with one product 2025: Sold it for $1B I’ve been an entrepreneur for over 30 years… And I don’t think I could scale and sell a company for $1B in 3 years. Yet Haile Bieber has done just that. She is one of the best entrepreneurs of our time. We can hate the rich as much as we want. I agree that many should be doing more to help those less privileged. But they're not blocking your path to success. You can get rich. Your neighbour can get rich. Your cousin can get rich. ANYONE can get rich in 2025. And it’s the only time in human history where that's been true. Attention is the new oil. And if you're reading this... You have free access to it. You may hate the idea of being an influencer… Or have doubts that you're not cut out to be one. 5 years ago, I felt the same way. But just like me, you can build in a way that suits you. You don’t have to play a fake character or act hysterical chasing trends. The whole point of social media is to be authentic to you. So in response to this news, today's newsletter is a bit different. I felt inspired to spill my guts and share everything I know on: -How to go viral. -Build a billion dollar business for free using social media. -And how to build a community. Even if you're just selling clothes on Ebay. The knowledge here will help you make money. You can check out this link to sign up to the newsletter 👉 https://lnkd.in/eJQMB223

I’m not an influencer. I’m an entrepreneur - and most people forget that. My content is what I’m best known for, but it often overshadows what I’m actually building. For the past 4 years, I’ve been building an ecosystem. A trifecta of support for people starting a business: • My YouTube gives you the knowledge • My book gets your mindset right • HelpBnk gives you the support to build I spent 20+ years figuring this all out so you don’t have to. And I can say this with confidence: If you’ve got access to these three things and actually use them… You’re already ahead of 99.9% of people on this planet. The fourth key is simple: your own effort. Combine all four… And success becomes a hell of a lot easier.

My son is in danger. This is the most important message I’ll ever write… But our freedom is at stake. There’s currently a bill, passing through parliament disguised as “safety.” But instead, it’s a threat to our freedom. The Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill gives local authorities the control to decide what YOUR child learns. Stripping parents of their fundamental right to raise their own child. If you don’t comply… They can imprison you. But that's not even the worse bit…. This Bill gives ANY future government power to restrict progressive ideas, religious education, or alternative worldviews and bars you from taking your child out to teach elsewhere. Now I’m not saying labour will do this. But once this bill passes, it won’t go back. That means ANY government will have the freedom to act on it. This is how control creeps in. Every year more laws are quietly added… Chipping away at your freedom each time. But this one CAN NOT go through. They're going to tell you it’s about “child protection” But it’s about STATE control. Whatever your political stance. Left or Right. We need to come together and ensure this doesn’t happen. Tell your MP. Tag them. DM them. Tell the Prime Minister this is NOT okay. Keir Starmer, Bridget Phillipson, Vidhaya Alekson Ruther Foto, Maurice Glassman My dream has always been to change the education system. I tried to get into politics. I spoke to the Minister of Education. I could never get through, so I decided social media was my best bet. But with this bill. My dream dies. If I’ve ever brought you any value. Now’s the time to help me protect what matters most… Our kids.

Kids need to take this as a warning. Statistically the #1 dream job for kids is to be a YouTuber. They watch their heroes in front of a camera… But don’t see what happens when it’s off. There’s a reason so many celebrities struggle with their mental health. Fame can ruin your life. And once it does… there’s no going back. I can’t walk down the street anymore without someone stopping me. Just the other day, I got hate on TikTok because I didn’t smile enough when a creator asked for a photo…. While I was out with my FAMILY! I still took the photo. I was friendly. I gave him almost 20 minutes of my time while my son was hungry to eat. But TikTok decided I wasn’t “energetic enough.” If fame wasn’t the only way I could make real change… I would’ve uninstalled every app years ago. But I’m not here for fame. I’m here to fix the education system. For my son… and for every kid that will be chained to a desk, forced to learn BS that doesn’t matter That’s why I’ll keep going. And thankfully, most of the people who follow me are incredible. Because I bring value and they see that. If your dream is to be a YouTuber… AMAZING! But please… Don’t chase fame. Instead, fight for something bigger than yourself. That’s what makes the fame actually worth it.

We need to stop glorifying buying houses. I see people celebrating “buying” their first homes at 21. Not realising they’ve signed themselves up 30+ years of entrapment. They’ve bought their own prison cell. I bought this house outright. No mortgage and no debt. But I bought it at 45. I rented for years. I moved where the opportunity was. I kept my costs lean. And I built an income stream that set me free. So yes, I waited until I had spare cash to buy this house outright. And it’s worth it because now no one owns a piece of my life. Freedom > Flex. A mortgage has been normalised. We’ve been desensitised to debt. Whether it’s “good” or “bad” debt, it keeps you tied to working for someone else. Everyone pushes you to get a mortgage, buy the car, swipe the credit card… But no one explains what that really means. Think about it: If you’ve got a £500/month car payment and your income comes from selling your time… How many hours are you handing over, just to make the car company richer? You’re literally exchanging your freedom for something that owns you. Here’s what I teach instead: Instead, find something that allows you to own your time, not sell it. And avoid debt at all costs.
