The #1 Key to Wealth for 9-5’ers (What Most Employees Miss Out On)

Keith LiscioJanuary 17, 2025

Have you ever wondered why many corporate employees find it challenging to build substantial wealth, despite having good salaries and investing in stocks?

Recently, I came across a fascinating study that reveals a striking pattern in wealth building that most financial advisors won't tell you about.

Small-sized net worth portfolios largely stick to traditional investments like stocks and bonds, with almost zero business ownership. But as you move up the wealth ladder, something changes dramatically.

At the multi-millionaire to billionaire level, 70% of their wealth comes from business ownership.

This isn't just a coincidence - it's a deliberate wealth-building strategy.

It got me thinking about all the talented corporate employees I meet who are working hard – but missing out on the biggest wealth-building secret: business ownership.

If you’re an employee thinking about a career change, business ownership—especially franchising—offers a unique mix of security and growth potential. Here’s why:

1. Control Factor:

While stocks, bonds, and real estate all have their place, business ownership is the only investment where you can maintain near-total control. You're not at the mercy of market swings, trends, or board decisions.

With business ownership, like a franchise, you’re in charge. Instead of relying on luck, you’re growing a business using a proven model, helpful systems, and ongoing support from your franchisor.

2. Tax Advantages:

The U.S. tax system is designed to reward business ownership..  For example, business owners can save up to $60,000 a year in tax-advantaged retirement accounts, while employees are typically limited to $22,500.

As a business or franchise owner, you can have:

These benefits give business owners financial advantages that regular employees simply don’t have.

3. Higher Returns:

Franchises often outperform traditional investments like stocks and bonds.

While traditional investments like stocks or bonds may deliver a 6-8% annual return, franchises often provide much higher returns. With a franchise, you’re not building something new—you’re stepping into a successful, established system.

It’s a way to reduce risks while maximizing growth potential.

You’re building an asset, not just growing a portfolio.

4. True Time Freedom

In a corporation, more responsibility usually means less time for yourself. Franchise ownership flips this script.

As your business grows, you can:

5. Financial Security & Recession Resistance

In an era of corporate layoffs and economic uncertainty, franchise ownership offers unique security:

The bottom line?

While most people focus on traditional investments, the truly wealthy are building their fortunes through business ownership.

Franchising offers the most systematic, supported path to join their ranks.
