Robert Kiyosaki continues his Rich Dad, Poor Dad, series with his Guide to Investing, What the Rich Invest in That The Poor and Middle Class Do Not! in this book he introduces sixteen investor lessons let’s go over the first four now and the rest over the next few days..
Investor Lesson 1 ~ The Choice – Do you want to be secure, comfortable or rich? Most people would agree that being rich will usually mean they will be secure and comfortable the problem is most people go for security first, then comfort and last on the list is being rich. Kiyosaki says if you really want to be rich think about it carefully because it may require you forego security and comfort for a while.
Investor Lesson 2 ~ What Kind of World Do You See? – How do you feel about money, your deep down intimate feelings? Is it hard to get? Do you feel there is never enough? or Do you believe you will always have enough money? There are two types of money problems according to Kiyosaki, not having enough or having too much. What problem do you want? What is your money reality? Whatever you see in your life, too much or not enough, this is what you believe inside. If your current situation is a lack of money are you willing to believe that a world where you have too much money is equally possible?
Investor Lesson 3 ~ Investing is Confusing – Robert learnt from his Rich Dad that investing is confusing because there are so many different ways and types of investing no one could possibly learn everything about investing. Don’t despair though there is a way out of the confusion as explained by Rich Dad in lesson four.
Investor Lesson 4 ~ Investing is a Plan, Not a Product or Procedure – If you want to invest successfully then you have to understand this lesson according to Kiyosaki. What you have to understand is that investing is what you do to get from where you are now financially to where you want to be sometime in the future. You may use stocks, real estate, business or a combination of these to get where you want to go, they are the vechicles. Use them without any emotional attachment to fulfill your investment plan.
Have a Happy Day
