What is wealth? Does wealth mean being rich or does it mean being happy, healthy and financially secure? The answer is all of the above. To me, wealth means having money in the bank, no debt, a healthy body and mind, and a happy life.
In order to have true wealth, you must have all of these things. If you are unhappy with your weight or overall health and you constantly want to change that, then you won't be able to reach true financial freedom.
Key Insight
Poor health can affect your ability to work or maintain work. It can also affect your relationships with others. True wealth requires both financial security AND physical well-being.
Why Your Health Is Your Greatest Investment
Investing in yourself is the most important investment you will ever make. By investing in yourself you will be able to maintain a healthy body and mind which will give you the motivation to achieve the financial freedom you desire.
When you are mentally and physically healthy, you are able to achieve much more than if you were constantly worrying about things that don't matter, like how much money is in the bank. When you're healthy, happy and financially secure, you operate from a position of strength.

Money Without Health: A Hollow Victory
There is no doubt that money is important. It can mean the difference between feeding your child or letting them go hungry, getting a place to live or living on the street, putting gas in your car or walking everywhere.
But what would you do if you had enough money to pay for all of those things and more? Would you simply lock yourself up in your mansion and never venture out again? No! You'd want to be out enjoying life, exploring the world around you, making new friends and building relationships. And in order to be able to do that, you need to be physically healthy.
Therefore, if we look at it from this perspective, it becomes easier to see why health makes wealth: because who wants to spend all of their time locked away in a hospital bed? When you're sick, all you can think about is how quickly you can get better so that you can go back outside and enjoy life again.
The Health-Wealth Connection That Changes Everything
What if there were a way for us to stay healthy while still enjoying the benefits of having an abundance of money? Well, now there is!
