Summary of "I Tested a 30-Day Wealth Experiment And Here’s What Actually Happened | Mitesh Khatri"
Overview (finance focus)
This summary describes a 3-step framework from a video that teaches how to build multiple income sources (target: 10) by 2026. The approach emphasizes practical entrepreneurship and side-business strategies rather than advice about specific financial securities. Main themes include diversification of income, alignment with personal values and skills, partnership/collaboration, and addressing mindset/emotional blocks around money.

3-step methodology / framework
1) Create multiple sources of income (diversification)
- Treat income like a pyramid—top earners have many income streams; aim for 8–10+ sources.
- Make a one-year commitment to generate multiple streams (speaker challenges viewers to build 10 sources in a year).
2) Work according to your values and strengths
- List 10 things you are genuinely good at or enjoy; convert those into income sources.
- Prioritize opportunities aligned with your interests to endure inevitable downsides.
- Avoid copying other people’s businesses if they do not match your interests or values.
3) Collaborate / take minority stakes
- Become a partial partner (suggested targets: ~20% or small stakes like 5%, 2%, 10% across multiple ventures).
- Trade the desire for 100% ownership for diversified small stakes across many projects to increase odds of success.
- Let others run operations if that’s their strength; contribute what you do best.
“100% of a grape vs 1% of the world” (metaphor illustrating dilution vs scale — don’t cling to full ownership at the cost of missing larger opportunities)
Key numbers, timelines, and examples
- Target: 10 sources of income (repeated challenge).
- Timeline references: target by 2026; also a one-year commitment to build 10 sources.
- Ownership examples: Zomato co-founder owning “only 4-something percent” (approx. ~4%); suggested small-stake examples include 5%, 2%, 10%.
- Small-business anecdote: waste-management/garbage-collection business in Australia that grew to 8 trucks.
Risk management and behavioral cautions
- Expect ups and downs in any business; aligning ventures with your values reduces the risk of quitting during downturns.
- Diversify across multiple small stakes to reduce concentration risk and increase chance of a big winner.
- Don’t pursue ideas solely because others are profitable in them—lack of interest increases likelihood of failure.
- Internal limiting beliefs and emotional blocks about money are significant barriers; mindset work is recommended to avoid self-sabotage.
Tactical takeaways and cautions
Tactical recommendations: - Make a list of 10 things you’re good at that could become income sources; prioritize those aligned with your values. - Enter partnerships and accept minority ownership to multiply exposure across ventures rather than trying to capture 100% of one.
Cautions: - Don’t overcommit to unfamiliar activities that feel like an “uphill journey” unless you genuinely value them. - Collaboration requires relinquishing some ownership; greed for 100% can lead to 0% of nothing.
Promotional content and disclosures
- The speaker promotes a “wealth mastery” course and offers a free first lesson (link mentioned in the video description) focused on emotional blocks about money.
- No formal “not financial advice” disclaimer is visible in the subtitles; content is instructional/motivational and includes a course promotion.

- Referenced individuals and anecdotes:
- Deepinder Goyal (Zomato co-founder) used as an example
