Thieves of your wealth

Are You Interested in Wealth?

One of the most important tests when you begin to deserve wealth is the test of protecting your money. At the start, “thieves” will appear in your life—and understanding this article might save you just like it saved me.

This article explores three types of "thieves" you will encounter on your journey to wealth, business, or creative success:

1️⃣ Dream Thieves

These appear the moment you begin dreaming of wealth and financial freedom. They come in the form of people who appeal to your desire for “quick riches.”Examples: trading without learning, “The Million in 7 Days” books, emails from someone who’s terminally ill and wants to transfer their inheritance to you, lottery wins.All of these are thieves who steal the very foundation of your dream and walk away—with a “block.”

2️⃣ Celebration Thieves

This type shows up when your blessings start to manifest—even something as small as your first paycheck, a raise, or your first sale.They tap into your money by asking for a celebration, a treat, a dinner, unjustified financial help, or even emotional guilt—especially from family who might say, “Now that you’re earning more, it’s time to give back.”This is emotional blackmail, not generosity or gratitude.In business, they show up as the client who doesn’t pay, demands endless discounts because they’re “VIP,” or constantly undermines your worth while trying to exploit you.

3️⃣ Jewel ThievesThis type appears when you're in your creative zone and achieving success—but not yet famous enough to protect yourself.They often target entrepreneurs, top students, or talented employees.They steal your effort, ideas, or achievements and claim them as their own because they assume you're “too naïve” or “how would they even find out?”This kind of scammer is clever, often legally savvy. They may promise to make you “the most famous” or claim you’ll “never succeed without them,” only to manipulate your dreams and steal your intellectual property or trap you in exploitative contracts—like the case of Maha El Sagheer.It’s painful, especially when they use the law against you—but they often have legal loopholes you can spot if you're aware.
