Owning property in your own name is one of the most irresponsible financial decisions you can make. Here’s why.

If your name is on the title deed, you are exposing yourself to unnecessary risk. One lawsuit, one creditor, one divorce, one tax problem, even one mistake can wipe out everything you’ve worked for.

The wealthy understand this. They don’t own assets directly. They control them. They use companies, trusts, and foundations to separate ownership from control. That way, when life happens, their assets are protected.

Meanwhile, many people feel proud just to have their name on a deed, but that’s often an illusion of security. If you’re a business owner, the risk is even greater. A single business failure could cost you your home if it’s tied to your personal name.

Think about the image above: whether someone is a CEO or a cleaner, we are all working hard to put food on the table. The difference is that some people play the money game smarter. Just as no job should be mocked, no wealth should be left unprotected.

If you’re building your future, don’t build on sand. Build under structures that can scale, grow, and outlive you. Real wealth is not about owning everything. It’s about controlling everything.

That’s the real game.
