Why you should read Poor Dad, Rich Dad: How to make money work for you


"Don't work for money, let the money work for you" - Robert Kiyosaki


If you want to grow wealth, you need to make money working for you instead of working for money cause it will help you leveraging your income and investments to generate additional wealth. In case you need to ask, let me explain what's the meaning of it:


"Let the money work for you" means of using your money to generate more wealth and achieving financial goals and taking advantages of opportunities for your money to grow. This quote come from the best-selling personal finance book of all time. "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki. This can be a great strategy for you, but with the right ones, you can make your money work harder you allowing you to achieve on building wealth over time and financial independence. 

The book "Poor Dad, Rich Dad" is a fundamental shift in mindset, as Robert Kiyosaki uses the perspectives of two dads: His biological dad (poor dad) and his best friend's dad (rich dad) to demostrate two entirely different approaches to money.


Let me show you how to do it:

Change your Financial Mindset

Build Financial Literacy

Investing in assets

Save and Invest wisely

Money Management:


When it comes to assets, it can be valuable resources owned by individuals or businesses that have economic value and can bring future benefits. 

Assets: are things that put money into your pocket, like investments and real estate, stocks or business that generate passive income.

Liabilities: are things that take money out of your pocket, such as a mortgage, car loan, or credit card debt.

It advises you accumulating assets and minimizing liabilities. The more assets you have that generate income, the more financially independent you will become.
 

Cash Flow:

When its come to building passive income that comes in without you having to work for it. By focusing on cash flow from investments, real estate or businesses, you can free yourself from the constraints of relying on a job. Cashflow is the total amount of money you earn and spend, and is the total of your income, expenses, liabilities, and assets. According to Robert Kiyosaki, cashflow is the central difference between generating income in the E (employee) and S (small business owner) quadrants and the B (big business owner) and I (investing) quadrants. Understanding cash flow and how to build multiple income streams is a key principle from anyone aiming for financial independence.


Creating Wealth, not just earning a living:

Instead of earning a living, Poor Dad, Rich Dad teaches you to creating wealth, the wealth building comes from when you start acquiring assets, investing wisely, and making your money work for you.


Financial Freedom:

Kiyosaki advocates for taking control of your financial destiny, by achieving your goals through a formula to attain enough money can happen only by gaining financial intelligence. 

Mindset Shift

Leverage 

Protecting assets 

Creating multiple streams of income
