Want to be rich? Or, at least well off enough that you’ll never have to worry about money again? Well, there are many people with a lot of advice on how to get there, but as we already know, not all of this advice is created equal.
One guy who knows a lot about making fat stacks is Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Kiyosaki believes that there’s only one thing that anyone needs to master if they want to start being the boss of their personal finances: and that’s to educate themselves.
Kiyosaki is a pragmatic guy, and one who believes in the power of education and doing. Pointing toward the US school system, he suggests that not being allowed to make mistakes holds people back. Kiyosaki instead says all the most successful people out there got educated by failure, and never let their mistakes stop them.
At the same time, Kiyosaki thinks there’s nowhere near enough education into something that we all have to master in our lives: personal finance. While kids might be learning to read, math equations, and salient points in history, personal finance is often nowhere to be found.
With that in mind, by pushing to make business happen, learn from your mistakes and also developing your own personal finance knowledge, you can start working your way up to reach a lifestyle of financial freedom.
While there’s a lot to learn, Kiyosaki’s clear vision is matched out by some of today’s most successful entrepreneurs, all of whom were willing to take chances, learn from their mistakes and then invest their earnings wisely.
It’s not exciting advice – but it’s a tried, tested, and proven true formula that you can start adopting today.
