Everyone wants to be a coach.

Everyone has a course.

Everyone made $100K last month.

But… did they really?

In this episode, we have a real conversation about the coaching industry, fake experts, and the dangerous trend of “playing rich” on the internet.

This isn’t about hating on course creators.

This isn’t about attacking entrepreneurship.

It’s about one thing: expertise.

If you’re teaching real estate — have you actually closed deals?

If you’re teaching business — have you actually built one?

If you’re selling dreams — are they verifiable?

We break down:

Why “faking the math” is hurting the community

The difference between scrappy hustling vs structured business

Why most people online aren’t making what they say

Why expertise should come before monetization

And why playing rich might be worse than being broke

This episode is uncomfortable — but necessary.

If you’re building something real, this conversation will resonate.

If it triggers you… you might want to ask why.

Are we being too harsh — or is this the truth nobody wants to say?
