Dreamers’ Wealth of Wisdom:
  • I have made it my mission to empower people, to understand how starting a business can change their situation and how they should leverage that money to create other income streams. — Ellie Diop
  •  I realized that the account balance isn’t what makes you rich; seeing it is the opposite of what makes you rich. It should work for you. It should be invested and be used as a tool to change your circumstances.  — Ellie Diop
  • I think it’s powerful for every parent to know that they can change the wealth circumstance of their children and future grandchildren by simple decisions and steps they start taking right now. — Ellie Diop
  • It’s important to have something on the side because, in business, one income stream is too close to none. Whether it’s a job or a business, you always have to be ready.   — Ellie Diop
  • When it comes to serving and creating products, it’s not about me. It’s about what my audience needs.  — Ellie Diop
  • You always have to be looking at what new problems are arising that I need to solve in my related nature industry. And when you keep that focus, you could never be broke. — Ellie Diop
  • I can still be excellent in my lane, whether I get invited to certain things or not, and not to take it personally, I recognize that things take time. — Ellie Diop
