How to Attract More Money Coming Your Way with These Simple Steps
I’ve always believed that attracting more money into your life works a lot like completing side missions in a video game—you start with a clear goal, but the real magic happens when you explore the extra opportunities. Take the mission structure in games like the one described: your main job might be to assault Scud missile launchers, but it’s the side objectives—rescuing Delta Force soldiers, gathering intel, or disabling anti-air batteries—that unlock powerful rewards. In my own journey toward financial growth, I’ve found that focusing solely on the "main mission," like a day job, rarely brings the windfalls. Instead, it’s those smaller, intentional steps—what I call "side hustles" in real life—that build momentum and open up unexpected cash flow.
Think about it: when you wipe out a Pantheon camp in the game, you earn intel and Scorestreak perks like attack helicopters or airstrikes. Similarly, in your financial life, every side effort—whether it’s freelancing, investing small amounts, or learning a high-income skill—acts like gathering intel. It equips you with tools to handle bigger opportunities. I remember starting with just $50 a month in a micro-investment app; it felt insignificant at first, but over two years, that consistent action compounded into a $3,000 emergency fund. That’s the equivalent of unlocking an airstrike in your financial arsenal—suddenly, you have explosive ways to solve money problems.
What’s fascinating is how much freedom this approach offers. The reference material mentions that the mission isn’t as robust as something like Far Cry, but that extra planning leads to creative problem-solving. I’ve seen the same principle apply to wealth-building. You don’t need a perfect, rigid system—just a bit of flexibility. For instance, I once took on a side gig editing articles, which seemed unrelated to my main career. But it introduced me to a client who later hired me for a project that paid over $5,000. By not ignoring those "side objectives," I effectively gathered resources that made my main financial goals easier to achieve.
Of course, none of this happens without taking that first shot. The text notes that these steps lead into "over-the-top battles when you finally start shooting." In money terms, that means moving from planning to action. I’m a big advocate for starting small—maybe saving 10% of any windfall or side income—because, just like in Black Ops 6, those gadgets and rewards add up. Over the past year, by consistently reinvesting dividends and taking on occasional consulting work, I’ve increased my passive income by about 15%. It’s not huge, but it’s a Scorestreak that keeps paying off.
Ultimately, attracting money is about designing your own mission with room for exploration. The side objectives in the game give players explosive options, and in life, your extra efforts—networking, upskilling, or even negotiating better rates—build a foundation where money flows more freely. From my experience, people who focus only on the "assault" often burn out, while those who embrace the smaller wins create lasting abundance. So, go ahead—tackle those financial side missions. You might just call in your own airstrike when you least expect it.
