Why you need a cash machine and a wealth vehicle
Every ambitious operator eventually discovers the same truth:
One business can’t do everything.
You need two engines.
1) The Cash Machine
Fast. Liquid. High-margin.
Consulting, advisory, fractional, agency; whatever prints money in weeks, not years.
It pays the bills, funds lifestyle, and gives you optionality.
2) The Wealth Vehicle
Slow. Patient. Compounding.
Equity, assets, real estate, IP, ownership; the things that don’t need you every day.
It’s what turns income into independence.
Most people confuse them. They try to make one business do both jobs and burn years trying to “scale” something that was never designed to scale.
The cash machine’s only job is to throw off surplus.
The wealth vehicle’s only job is to multiply it.
Short-term leverage + long-term compounding = actual freedom.
Most consultants stay broke because every pound they make goes back into the same hamster wheel of better branding, nicer dashboards, new tools.. instead of being siphoned off into a second engine that grows while they sleep.
You don’t build generational wealth with revenue, but with ownership.
The cash machine funds the vehicle whilst the vehicle buys your life back.
As promised, Vanquish in under 1 minute.
