How to Turn the Money Your Business Makes Into Wealth That Lasts
What’s the difference between rich and wealthy? If you’re putting nearly every dollar your business makes back into it, the answer has a lot to do with you.
Ashley M. Fox spent her twenties at J.P. Morgan’s private bank on a team that only served clients with $25 million or more, and she saw firsthand what the ultra-wealthy do with their money that most business owners are never taught.
According to Pilot’s 2026 small business salary report, 28% of owners pay themselves nothing at all. Ashley knows that pull well, because it took her a long time to pay herself while she put everything into her business. The question that finally got her to start paying herself more is one I want you to sit with before your next payday.
By the end, you’ll understand the difference between rich and wealthy and know which one your business is building for you.
