## Описание

Money doesn’t matter… until you don’t have it.
This is the real truth about what actually drives success.

In this clip, Baiju breaks down the three core motivations behind success: money, power, and accomplishment. Early on, money is the driver. Later, it shifts toward building something meaningful, something that impacts millions, and ultimately something that lasts beyond you.

You’ll see how chasing financial success evolves into chasing impact, scale, and legacy, and why money is still a critical piece of that equation.

### Segment 1 (00:00 - 05:00) []

I remember Steve Jobs saying at the end of his life, you know, money didn't make him happy. And I'm like, bro, you but you had money. — Yeah. — Bill Gates says the same thing. I'm like, yeah, but all you guys say that at the end after you're worth billions of dollars, but when you're poor or you're working out of your garage or you're trying to come up go public, how much of that is actually money driven? reflecting back on it and I think about like what my personal motivations are in life today. Like I think you can kind of bucket people's motivations in at least the way I think about it pretty simply into like are you money motivated? Are you power motivated or are you accomplishment motivated? — And I think for me personally when I was earlier in life I was money motivated and accomplishment motivated. Like those were the things that I cared about. And what did that mean? I wanted to build a company that would be really valuable someday, right? I wanted to I was trying to build a company that would eventually be even from the early days, right? The mission was to democratize finance for all. We were a stock brokerage company. We were an online trading company. like we saw the big publicly traded, you know, counterparts that we had and we're like, you know, we want to build a company that's going to be big like those companies. And so from that perspective, it was very much, you know, from a personal motivation, I wanted to build a company that was super valuable that I, you know, that I created that would eventually like hopefully have an outcome for me like, you know, in that generation, all the people that were starting mobile app companies that were having billion-dollar exits like, yeah, I wanted that. I really wanted that. For me, the other motivation also was to build, and this I think is the accomplishment motivation part, right? is I wanted to build something that millions of people used and I wanted the accomplishment of trying to understand like what it was cuz at the time this was like a much more you know this was happening like pretty left, right and center where people were discovering these like little um and sometimes big like use cases that millions and millions of people would have, right? It's like did did any of us realize that all of us would be using Instagram or Facebook? Like that was a hole that we had in our lives, right? I certainly didn't, but some people saw that. And so the question was this sort of like human psychology, sort of human behavior, human experience thing, like how do you find something that's useful to millions of people in a sector or market as competitive as financial services? like the intellectual challenge like how do you discover this like you know this like thing this commonality of like millions of human beings and create something that speaks to that and ideally is useful for people and for that it was like building an app that I thought was you know where the design was something that I'd be extremely proud of right where the way it worked and like the way it looked were in harmony right that the form and function of it were like that made sense together. And kind of coming back to the Steve Jobs um point that you made a second ago, like I idolize Steve Jobs. Like I really didn't. I still do. Um I never got a chance to meet him, which I really wish I had. Um but he had this thing that he did where he would create these beautiful products that all of us would be like, "Oh my god, I have to have this in my life. " Right. Yeah. — How do you have how could I have an accomplishment like that? So, that was kind of the other one. And, you know, as I've gotten a little bit older and am financially successful, the money motivation is less acute because I'm not poor anymore, you know, just very plainly. — Yeah. — Um, but I am still extraordinarily accomplishment motivated. And I think for me, — the thing I've wanted to accomplish since I was a young man or even kind of a boy was I wanted to build something that would be meaningful in in outer space and like humanity's journey beyond the surface of the earth. And that's kind of the thing I'm chasing now, you know, like the accomplishment of creating something that meaningfully extends humanity's footprint beyond the surface of the earth. And my thesis on this is and all, you know, to the curious mind, you see commonalities in all the things that you

### Segment 2 (05:00 - 06:00) [5:00]

do and experience in life. My thesis is that if humanity is going to have a more substantive footprint in outer space, it's got to be financially driven. Like you have to create financial incentives. And when I say financial incentives, I mean ways for people to make money and have jobs — that relate to humanity's expansion to outer space. Cuz the alternative which has kind of existed through the majority of both of our lives has been this stuff is governmentmentoriented right it's like for the government by the government largely at government prices and it kind of limits how many people care about it but if it's just purely commercial you have more people that want to be a part of working on technology for outer space because they think they'll have good jobs they have good you know family lives and we'll be It'll provide for their loved ones in a way that's meaningful versus just like being a scientist, which being a scientist doesn't play as well as like working at a tech company.
