Hey, I’m Darius Foroux

I’ve been writing and teaching online for over a decade now.
But I’ve recently come to a realization that changed everything: Education and training must be continuous if you want it to stick.
My assumption was always that you learn a topic or skill, and then you’re done. You’ve mastered it.
But that is false.
You don’t stay sharp by learning once; you stay sharp through continuous training.
Knowledge decays. Skills get rusty. Clarity fades if it isn’t practiced.
If you want to build a flourishing life, you have to stop treating self-improvement like a destination and start treating it like a practice.
After I came to this realization, I began developing an ongoing training program.
That’s how I developed the idea of Wise & Wealthy Academy. It’s a program that’s designed to continuously strengthen the four building blocks of a flourishing life.
Here’s what this program looks like.
Every Saturday, I publish a new training focused on one of the four foundational domains:
Clear Thinking: Upgrade how you see reality and make decisions.
Investing Psychology: Operate rationally in markets and avoid emotional mistakes.
Career Antifragility: Become increasingly valuable and impossible to replace.
Personal Execution: Build a system that ensures consistent output and progress.
You will receive these posts in your inbox and the Substack app. It will be a combination of text, visuals, and occasionally, video.
The Wise & Wealthy Academy is designed to help you stack—and keep—the four building blocks of a high-functioning life.
Here’s exactly what you get as a member:
Weekly Saturday Training: Every week, I publish a new post designed to upgrade your internal operating system. We rotate through the four building blocks every week.
Direct Application: No long, theoretical lectures. These posts are short, focused, and designed for you to apply instantly.
The Private Handbook: For the past two years, I’ve worked on a new book in private: Handbook for Modern Life: A New Take on Epictetus’ Stoic Manual for Living Well. I decided not to publish this for the general public. It’s exclusive to Academy members. It is a collection of my most personal and practical reminders for staying steady when the world goes crazy, based on the classic work of Epictetus.
It’s currently $80 per year or $10 per month. I plan to raise the price as I’m building a library of practical wisdom on Substack.
If you’re ready to strengthen the four building blocks of a wise and wealthy life, join the Academy by subscribing below.
Whether you choose to support or continue reading for free, I’m glad you’re here.
All the best.
