Personal finance personality Dave Ramsey says one reason broke people hand out so much financial advice is because they fear getting left behind.
&#8220;Broke people care deeply about what you think,&#8221; Ramsey recently <a href="https://x.com/DaveRamsey/status/1923741797336961421">posted on X</a>. &#8220;That's why broke people are always giving you advice: They're afraid that you're going to outpace them because you're doing smart things with money.&#8221;

</ul>
Ramsey went on to say that people with real wealth typically don&#8217;t waste time trying to look rich. &#8220;Most people who aren't broke don't give a crap what you think,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Because the way they achieved that first layer of wealth ($1–10 million net worth) is that they didn't do it for you. They were not living their life to impress others.&#8221;
He added that once people stop caring about outside opinions, their financial behavior usually changes: &#8220;You tend to make completely different purchases and live a completely different lifestyle.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">It Takes Money To Make Money?</h2>
On a recent episode of &#8220;<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daveramsey/video/7473250511299317038">The Ramsey Show</a>,&#8221; a 25-year-old caller named Nathan asked for guidance after inheriting just over $200,000 when his father passed away. Nathan, who earns $35,000 a year, asked whether he should invest the money in a business to become a millionaire by his 30s.
Trending: Invest where it hurts — and help millions heal:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/a-cure-for-osteoarthritis-powered-by-everyday-investors-cytonics-is-looking-to-beat-big-pharma-and-disrupt-a-390-billion-market"> Invest in Cytonics and help disrupt a $390B Big Pharma stronghold</a>.
Ramsey told him to slow down. &#8220;You&#8217;re calling very wisely to start to gather some wisdom about something you don&#8217;t know anything about,&#8221; he said. &#8220;You have never driven a car before and someone just gave you car keys.&#8221;
He said the idea, which Nathan referenced, that &#8220;it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44133292/it-takes-money-to-make-money-is-an-excuse-broke-people-make-dave-ramseys-response-to-caller-seeking-advice-about-200k-inheritance">takes money to make money</a>,&#8221;&nbsp; is flawed: &#8220;That&#8217;s a statement that broke people say as an excuse to not become broke people.&#8221;
Ramsey continued, &#8220;Can you make money using money? Sure. But actually, the vast majority of people who build wealth do not build it because someone handed them $200,000. They build it because of their habits and their character.&#8221;
Ramsey&#8217;s advice to Nathan was simple: shift away from excitement and toward more measured, even boring financial decisions. &#8220;Your job is to manage this money as if it&#8217;s someone else&#8217;s money and you&#8217;re managing it for them. Your job, first, is not to lose it. Your job, second, is to maximize it.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">You Don't Need A Six-Figure Salary To Become A Millionaire</h2>
In a 2023 Facebook <a href="https://www.facebook.com/daveramsey/posts/most-millionaires-dont-drive-flashy-cars69-of-millionaires-did-not-average-10000/787410102748606/">post</a>, Ramsey said that &#8220;69% of millionaires did not average $100,000 or more in household income per year – and (get this) one-third of millionaires never had a six-figure household income in their entire careers.&#8221;
So how did they do it? Ramsey says it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42396143/69-of-millionaires-never-earned-a-six-figure-salary-here-are-2-things-they-do-to-get-their-first-1-million-according-to-dave-ramsey">comes down to two major things</a>: consistently investing in retirement accounts and owning a paid-for house.
His 2024 <a href="https://www.ramseysolutions.com/retirement/the-national-study-of-millionaires-research?srsltid=AfmBOoo588H0CoZR9i-5t5mYZ-8xLMopvb22E_Xwhe7CEcDpqdTeccjF">study</a> found that eight out of 10 millionaires participated in their company&#8217;s 401(k) plan, and 75% also invested outside of it. They avoided risky single-stock investments and instead stuck with diversified <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mutual-funds">mutual funds</a>, contributing regularly and letting compound interest do the heavy lifting.
The second major factor is a paid-off house. Ramsey noted that most millionaires had $500,000 to $600,000 of their net worth in a home they owned outright.
Broke people often stay broke because they focus on appearances and bad advice instead of long-term habits. Becoming a millionaire has less to do with income and more to do with discipline, patience and ignoring noise from those who aren&#8217;t where you want to be.

Broke People Love To Give Financial Advice, Says Dave Ramsey. They're Scared You'll Outpace Them By 'Doing Smart Things With Money'

Pinterest Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PINS#NYSE">PINS</a>) has made "solid progress" in growing users while improving monetization and ARPU (average revenue per user), according to JPMorgan.
The Pinterest Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/591479b8290fa7000138e4b4/doug-anmuth">Analyst Doug Anmuth</a> upgraded the rating from Neutral to Overweight, while raising the price target from $35 to $40.
The Pinterest Thesis: Despite the progress, the company's shares are down 18% from the February highs, underperforming the 3% decline in the S&amp;P 500 during the same period, Anmuth said in the upgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
Pinterest is insulated from search engine disruption, given that 85% of its MAUs (monthly active users) directly visit the app and more than 90% of its revenue is generated from the mobile app, the analyst stated.
The company is "leveraging its full funnel ad approach and automation/AI capabilities — including Performance+ — to capture a greater share of ad spending among the next tranche of advertisers ($1B-$30B in sales), while some of the larger &amp; more sophisticated advertisers already allocate 5-10% of their budgets to PINS," he wrote.
Pinterest has already achieved adjusted EBITDA margin close to 30% and there is upside to this, given its faster revenue growth and cost discipline, Anmuth added.
PINS Price Action: Shares of Pinterest had risen by 4.81% to $33.44 at the time of publication on Tuesday.

Nearly a third of consumers prefer brands to send post-purchase follow-up messages via social media, <a href="https://www.emarketer.com/content/social-messaging-marketing-2025">according to eMarketer</a>. As US retail social commerce sales jumped 26% in 2024, one company has positioned itself at the center of the convergence between social messaging, AI automation, and commerce.
Having just closed its $140 million Series B funding round, Manychat is tuning into a market that&#8217;s reshaping how brands engage with customers. With 82% of organizations <a href="https://www.the-future-of-commerce.com/2025/01/09/b2b-sales-2025/">planning</a> to integrate AI agents within three years and 60% of Gen Z interested in AI-assisted shopping, the timing works well for a platform that processes billions of automated interactions across social media platforms.
The shift toward conversational commerce is becoming fundamental to how younger consumers expect to interact with brands. As Instagram&#8217;s CEO Adam Mosseri stated, &#8220;send rates&#8221; – how often content is shared via DMs – are now more important than likes, comments, or watch time for expanding organic reach. This algorithmic shift makes DM automation tools increasingly valuable, especially as 86% of US marketers are using influencer marketing in 2025. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Psychological Roots of an AI Visionary</h2>
Before starting a company that now processes billions of automated interactions, Manychat founder Mike Yan studied psychology. Yan was fascinated by human relationships and that background turned out to be prescient when using AI to have conversations in his business. In 2015 Yan automated Telegram chats, which led way to the idea that later became Manychat — a chatbot platform that enables creators and businesses to automate conversations over social and messaging apps.
The company took off when Facebook Messager opened its APIs in 2016, providing access to a billion users. At the time, Yan and his co-founder were focused on messenger marketing at an enormous scale, well-positioned as the wave of conversational commerce began reshaping nearly all of retail.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Evolution Toward Agentic AI</h2>
The company serves clients ranging from Nike and the NBA to The New York Times, plus over a million smaller businesses across 170 countries. But Yan&#8217;s bold vision extends beyond current capabilities toward what he calls &#8220;agentic AI.&#8221;
&#8220;We believe there is a lot of opportunity for app layer players like Manychat, who may not work on their foundational models but have a deep understanding and insight into specific customer segments and use cases,&#8221; Yan says. &#8220;They can productize the existing foundational models and create an end-to-end user experience that elevates the value of these models.&#8221;
This approach reflects the AI landscape&#8217;s evolution from narrow applications through generative AI and reasoning models to autonomous, multi-step task completion. Manychat AI, launched last year, aims to enhance social platform interactions by providing more personalized, interactive chat experiences that drive both conversions and customer satisfaction.
&#8220;Our goal with Manychat is to build an agent for social interactions that assists creators and businesses in building great relationships at scale without losing authenticity,&#8221; Yan notes. &#8220;Balancing automation with manual contact and the human touch is a complex challenge, both technically and from an experience standpoint. While there is much work to be done, the opportunity is tremendous.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Competitive Landscape And Market Position</h2>
There are a number of public companies operating in marketing automation spaces. Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) offers Service Cloud with AI-powered chatbots; HubSpot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUBS#NYSE">HUBS</a>) has marketing automation that includes some social messaging features; Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) includes conversational AI as part of Azure and Dynamics 365; Adobe (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADBE#NASDAQ">ADBE</a>) offers marketing automation capabilities as part of Experience Cloud.
But none focus on automating social media DMs specifically at the scale and specialization opportunities that Manychat has developed. This positioning will become more valuable as markets for automation continue to mature, especially as specialization increases competitive advantage.&nbsp;
Manychat&#8217;s community-building emphasizes this. The yearly Instagram Summit that sold more than 15,000 tickets with speakers such as Trevor Noah and executives at Meta illustrates the company&#8217;s role in shaping the industry&#8217;s dialogue around social commerce.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Road Ahead</h2>
While Yan is not disclosing any specific IPO plans, the company&#8217;s conservative financial approach indicates that they are focused on sustainable, profitable growth over rapid expansion. The market conditions favor this approach: 74% of companies are already experiencing ROI in at least one generative AI use case, and about half of B2B marketers <a href="https://contentmarketinginstitute.com/b2b-research/b2b-content-marketing-trends-research">believe</a> the use of AI reduces routine tasks and increases overall workflow efficiency.
The challenge ahead is what Yan calls maintaining authenticity while being able to automate at scale — a significant technical and experiential problem that will require more nuanced solutions. As enterprise AI investments grow and social commerce continues to experience explosive growth, Manychat&#8217;s success at solving this challenge may define whether brand-consumer connections of the future will be set through intelligent automation, human authenticity, or a combination of the two.
For investors tracking the trifecta of AI, social media, and commerce, Manychat offers a compelling case study in how niche AI applications can create value in rapidly evolving markets, driven by Yan&#8217;s powerful vision. With data pointing to continued acceleration in social messaging, AI adoption, and conversational commerce, the $140 million funding round positions Manychat to harness several high-growth trends at once.

Spotify Technology S.A. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) shares opened at a record $675 on Tuesday in New York, lifted by a bullish industry forecast from Goldman Sachs that sees the global music market nearly doubling in size <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color">over the next decade. </a>
In its annual Music in the Air report, published Tuesday and led by analyst Lisa Yang, Goldman revised its compound annual growth rate (CAGR) forecast for the music industry to 6.8% for 2025-2030, down from 7.5% previously. The report also introduced a 2031-2035 forecast of 4.8% CAGR. 
Still, that implies the global music market will expand from $105 billion in 2024 to nearly $197 billion in 2035.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Emerging Markets Will Drive Next Leg Of Music Streaming Growth</h3>
Goldman forecasts global paid subscribers will climb from 752 million in 2024 to 1.51 billion by 2035, with 75% of that growth coming from emerging markets—up from 57% today.
Spotify, which captured a 35% share of the global paid music streaming market in 2024 with 263 million subscribers, remains the dominant player along with Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) YouTube and Tencent Music Entertainment Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TME#NYSE">TME</a>), particularly due to their bundling strategies and localized offerings in growth markets.
Goldman said Spotify gained 30 basis points in market share last year, following a 70 basis point increase in 2023.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Monetizing The Fan Experience: Super-Premium Tiers And Concerts</h3>
Goldman highlighted new monetization strategies including price increases, superfan-targeted products, and the growing integration of live events and digital platforms. 
One key innovation: concert ticketing through streaming platforms.
&#8220;As Generation Y and Z fans engage more with their favorite artists, we also see opportunity for live music ticketing to benefit from increased integration with streaming services,&#8221; the report said.
Spotify's upcoming Super Premium tier is expected to include exclusive concert ticket pre-sale access, mimicking models like Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>)&#8217;s pre-sale partnership with Beyoncé.
Goldman said these deals could generate over $100 million globally at scale, as streaming platforms leverage listener data to offer high-value fan access while ticketing companies gain new monetization pathways.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Product Innovation And Pricing Power Are Key</h3>
Spotify has recently implemented strategic price hikes to support its evolving product model.
In May and July 2024, the company raised prices across several major markets, including the U.S., UK, and Australia. Yet, the increases primarily reflected added audiobook content rather than improved music margins.
Looking ahead, the Financial Times reported in April 2025 that Spotify will raise music-only plan prices by €1 across Europe and Latin America in early June. This would mark nearly two years since its last hike targeting the core music plan.
Goldman said that execution, scale and pricing power will determine future winners in a slower-growth music landscape. 
Among digital streaming platforms, Goldman reiterated Buy ratings on Spotify Technology S.A., Alphabet Inc., Tencent Music Entertainment Group, NetEase Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTES#NASDAQ">NTES</a>), Sony Group Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>), Live Nation Entertainment Inc.

BP PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>) announced on Tuesday that it is <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/news-and-insights/press-releases/bp-deepens-and-progresses-in-azerbaijan-with-go-ahead-for-new-major-project-and-exploration-access.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">advancing a major development phase</a> for the Shah Deniz gas field in Azerbaijan and gaining access to new exploration blocks, strengthening its long-term partnership with the country and state oil company SOCAR.
The agreements, signed during Baku Energy Week, include the $2.9 billion Shah Deniz Compression project and linked solar and electrification initiatives at the Sangachal terminal to cut emissions and boost gas production.
BP, with a 29.999% stake in Shah Deniz, will install an unmanned compression platform to tap low-pressure gas reserves, adding about 50 billion cubic meters of gas and 25 million barrels of condensate, with production expected to start in 2029.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/05/45665087/bp-announces-first-gas-at-mento-off-trinidads-southeast-coast" rel="noreferrer noopener">BP Announces First Gas At Mento Off Trinidad&#8217;s Southeast Coast</a>
The company also approved a 240MW solar plant in Azerbaijan&#8217;s Jabrayil district to supply power to the Sangachal terminal, reducing fuel gas use and operational emissions.
BP also secured operator rights with a 35% interest in two Caspian Sea blocks, including the Karabagh oil field and Ashrafi-Dan Ulduzu-Aypara area, while Turkey&#8217;s TPAO took a 30% stake in the Shafag-Asiman block, accelerating development after gas condensate was discovered in 2021.
BP has operated in Azerbaijan for over 33 years, leading major fields and export pipelines. Gordon Birrell, BP&#8217;s EVP of Production &amp; Operations, said the company aims to grow upstream production to 2.3-2.5 million barrels of oil equivalent per day by 2030, partly driven by these projects.

Lottery.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LTRY#NASDAQ">LTRY</a>, LTRYW))) ("Lottery.com" or the "Company"), a leading technology company transforming the intersection of gaming, sports and entertainment, announced today that it has commenced an investigation into potential short selling activities in its stock. The Company has engaged legal counsel from Paul Hastings LLP to conduct the investigation.
The Company believes that there may have been dissemination of false information relating to the Company with the objective of driving down its stock price and damaging its business. The Company also believes that it may have been the victim of illegal naked short selling in its stock.
Within the last six months, Lottery.com stock has been listed on Nasdaq's Regulation SHO Threshold Security List sixteen times, which indicates a significant number of failures to deliver Lottery.com shares. During that time, SEC data shows a high level of failures to deliver, including over 1.12 million shares on February 10, 2025 alone. Large numbers of failures to deliver that persist over a long period of time may be indicative of naked short selling. Moreover, Lottery.com stock has continued to sustain high borrow rates, peaking at over 500%, suggesting an elevated level of demand to short the stock.
The Company will not tolerate the spreading of false information about the Company or the manipulation of its stock. It is prepared to take all actions necessary to report any suspected illegal activity to regulators and to bring actions against anyone that is engaging in illegal activity to safeguard shareholder interest and ensure market transparency.
This investigation builds on prior referrals already made by the Company to certain regulators including Nasdaq MarketWatch, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice.
No stockholder action is required at this time.
