NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A revolutionary playbook for building generational wealth, no matter where you grew up—from the founders of the explosively popular podcast and financial literacy platform Earn Your Leisure

This audiobook features a special welcome message from co-author Rashad Bilal.

You deserve to be rich.

You deserve to make a purchase without fear that your check might bounce. You deserve to go on vacation. You deserve to care for loved ones without worrying about bills. You deserve to live the way you want, without reservations or fear. You deserve freedom—financial freedom. If you agree, you’ve come to the right place.

We grew up in New York playing basketball together. As kids, both of us were fascinated by finance, curious about the stock market and how money moves among systems and pockets. But we began to notice that—for people in our community—hard work wasn’t enough. The system wasn’t set up to help people like us turn our hustle into lasting wealth.

We started Earn Your Leisure to change that. We never could have imagined the response. Soon our little podcast started to feel more like a financial revolution. But a podcast can do only so much. This book is our answer to the thousands upon thousands of people who have asked us for a detailed blueprint. The key to earning your leisure is to see money as a strategic tool for wealth development. In You Deserve to Be Rich, you’ll learn how to:

• Deal with the psychological toll of growing up living paycheck to paycheck.

• Create income-building strategies outside your nine-to-five, from investing to side hustles.

• Use passive income to put you in control of your time and lifestyle.

• Master tax and insurance systems and identify (legal) loopholes to maximize wealth.

• Navigate family financial drama and find ways to support your community.

That’s just the start. This book is full of tips, insights, and stories about real people, just like you, who have used the tools of wealth building to overcome barriers and build the life they want.

You deserve to be rich. This is the playbook to make it happen.

Very good financial read

I learned so much from this book. So glad I gave it a listen. I recommend it to anyone who wants to be financially successful

A book for US.

A complete financial education book for people who were not taught financial education. Giving you a complete rundown of investments, money management, business. It won’t give you everything you need so if you’re looking for something that is more advanced, skip along. However, this book is phenomenal and thank you for writing it.

Amazing Book, Shoutout to Rashad updating the voice

Book reads like a movie now!! Excellent listen now and the content and message can be taught to the masses!

Great message bad narration

I think I would have enjoyed reading the book instead of listening to the audiobook. The narration was a distraction to the message they were trying to deliver. Overall great advice in the book. Consider buying it instead of listening.

Very informative i have a better understanding of how to do better with improving my financial status

This is timeless and very informative and should be taught in the school system definitely was clear and relatable. Troy and Rashad did an excellent job of explaining this way I could understand the voice narration of Troy and the other gentleman was perfect. I thank you so much for this experience and I will see you at best best 2025.

The game plan

Had a clear game plan with different scenarios of people. No fluff. Straight to the point

Great Information

I get the message and lessons. The book is really insightful. Great material if you want to grow wealth.

Gem Dropping Book

This book is a Gold Mine with Jewels that can take anyone to the EYL level. Just follow the steps and you’ll get there. On the other hand Rashad needs to practice on his vocal skills. He makes the book sound like he’s tired of reading his own book.

Instant Classic!

Great overall book! Get the hard copy. Gives you real life examples and action steps on how to grow your money. However Shoty you can’t be great at everything 🤣 definitely need to hire someone to read your part or just have Troy read the whole thing. Love you guys and the movement!✊🏾

Great knowledge and instruction with tangible steps to follow

This book should be required reading in the classroom. A lot of resources discuss what to do, but forget to give strategies to actually do what’s proposed. This book gives you foundational things you should implement and sprinkles in some higher level things.
