In this episode of "From Worry to Wealth", Ben Lyons takes listeners on a personal journey through the books and ideas that shaped his mindset, philosophy, and path to financial independence. From working a minimum-wage job at 18 to building a life centered on intentional growth, Ben reflects on the timeless lessons that helped transform his psychological, financial, and overall “five selves.”

Ben revisits foundational classics like Think and Grow Rich, The Richest Man in Babylon, How to Win Friends and Influence People, The Magic of Thinking Big, Rich Dad Poor Dad, and more—explaining not just what these books teach, but why they mattered at different stages of his life. Along the way, he shares insights from influential thinkers such as Napoleon Hill, Jim Rohn, Zig Ziglar, Tony Robbins, Wayne Dyer, and Robert Kiyosaki.

This episode goes beyond money. Ben unpacks his “Five Selves” framework—spiritual, physical, social, psychological, and financial—and explains why true wealth creation requires balance across all of them. He emphasizes the power of self-talk, discipline, lifelong learning, and studying success from multiple perspectives.

If you’re looking to strengthen your mindset, improve your financial self, and understand how the right information at the right time can change your trajectory, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode of From Worry to Wealth, hosts Ben Lyons and Alex Fink sit down with Dr. Olufisayo “Fisayo” Arubuola, an internal medicine physician whose journey from Nigeria to building a thriving medical practice in Florida is a masterclass in resilience and intentional wealth-building. Dr. Facio shares how his family’s entrepreneurial roots and sacrifices for education shaped his mindset, why a defining moment in Nigeria pushed him to pursue opportunity in the U.S., and what it took to power through licensing exams, poverty-level struggles, and grueling residency hours without losing sight of the goal. Along the way, he breaks down the principles that helped him “divorce poverty,” stay prudent with money, invest with purpose, and keep learning—plus memorable lessons on risk, perseverance, asking for help, and the perspective that America remains a land of opportunity for those ready to grab it.

In this episode of "From Worry to Wealth", hosts Ben Lyons and Alex Fink sit down with veteran trial attorney Paul Bekman to unpack what real, durable success looks like—and how it’s built.

Paul shares his journey from a middle-class upbringing and an adventurous childhood living overseas (including Korea in the late 1950s) to attending New York Military Academy—where he famously overlapped with Donald J. Trump—then the Air Force Academy, and ultimately the University of Maryland Law School. From there, he describes how he became “hooked” on trial work after winning two early cases as a brand-new lawyer, and how that commitment to courtroom excellence shaped a decades-long career.

The conversation highlights Paul’s professional achievements (including leadership roles in Maryland’s bar associations and prestigious national trial organizations), his philosophy that “the harder you work, the luckier you get,” and his practical approach to building a standout reputation: try strong cases, develop credibility, and master the craft. He also pulls back the curtain on high-stakes litigation—medical malpractice, catastrophic injury, and wrongful death—explaining why specialization and trial readiness matter in both impact and earning power.

Tying it back to wealth creation, Paul explains that while law can generate significant income, his wealth was built primarily through investing—especially by seeking strong opportunities early (including private AI investments as an accredited investor). The episode closes with Paul’s personal habits and longevity mindset (including an intense daily workout routine) and his final advice: work hard, do the right thing, be fair, and become a true expert so your reputation and results create lasting momentum.
