Major Lesson Learned From The Book π
One of the empowering lessons this book thought was to keep using your brain especially we youths of nowadays that the first step towards building wealth is generating a basic income.
Most people work for money but rich people love money working for them. I noticed in this book that those who are rich hire into jobs, and not a job holder, and the rich learn to become a business owner.
Working all your life for someone else can lead to financial struggle.
It's not how much money you make that matters most but how much money you keep.
It's good to be self-employed because there won't be too many shelters on what you can earn.
The more you can earn the more you can save and invest to gain real wealth because building wealth takes some big changes in someone's life.
Although the lesson learned from Robert Kiyosaki's book isn't meant to make you feel the situation you are in is hopeless. But to give you inspiration on how rich people become rich. And believe me, if you can put in the lessons learned when reading it or embrace them as part of your financial routine, the entire monetary dynamic in your life will surely change for the better.
In this book, they make use of a diagram that illustrates Rich Dad Poor Dad and also how to spend wisely. The book taught me a lot of lessons, it explains how to make your money work for you instead of you working hard for money.
