Sir Peter Vardy - The Secrets to Making Money and How to Use It for a Better World (and You)

Today’s guest is Sir Peter Vardy, the British businessman and philanthropist who is one of the wealthiest men in the UK. Having had great success in the automotive industry, Sir Peter’s life as of quite some time has been focused on philanthropy through his personal foundation, the Vardy Foundation, which supports a wide range of community causes. He helped to fund the building of a City Technology College and three academies, which together form the Emmanuel Schools Foundation- a coalition of schools with a Christian ethos.

His foundation continues to make grants and provide support to a wide range of charitable causes including fighting homelessness and modern slavery, establishing hospitals and food banks, and providing education to children, for which he was granted a knighthood.

723 Give to Receive with Russell Simmons

“You have a right to your actions, but never to your actions’ fruits.” - Bhagavad Gita
It’s a time of year where we focus on giving.
We give gifts, we give back to our communities, and we give to charities.
So what does it mean to give?
And why is it important?
Giving is not just a nice thing to do, it’s critical to your wellbeing. We are all connected- the more you give to others, the more you help yourself.
For this Five Minute Friday, I revisited an amazing conversation I had with Russell Simons where he shared how the practice of giving has made him incredibly prosperous.
Russell Simmons is an American entrepreneur, record producer, yogi, and author. He co-founded Def Jam Recordings and created the fashion lines Phat Farm, Argyleculture, and Tantris. He is also the founder of Rush Communications.
Russell is one of the richest men in Hip Hop, but he didn’t get there by hoarding all of his wealth.
He’s learned that the more he makes the world better, the more his own world is improved.
He makes the point that good givers are great getters, but you have to give fully without the expectation that it will benefit you.
Learn more about Russell Simmons background and why his practice of philanthropy is key to his success in Episode 723.
In This Episode You Will Learn:
How black entrepreneurs are inspired by their street experiences (1:30)
How integration destroyed the fabric of black communities (3:00)
Why Russell loves to empower new artists (4:00)
Why Russell chooses to give back (5:00)
How giving will help you receive (5:30)

15 Things I Learned About Money Writing the Book 'Money' [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]

Rob talks about the 15 things he learned about money while writing his new book "Money". He explains why money is just neutral, and is the root of both all good and bad things. Why money is flow, energy and movement, why money loves trust and speed and dislikes friction. How negative emotions, such as fear, envy and shame, leads you to low self-worth and affect the way you manage money. Why wealthy people contribute to society and do philanthropy. He also explains why people will judge you anyway, either because you have a lot of money or you have no money!
