Bottom line is do not buy the liabilities first , buy your assets first and let your assets pay for your liabilities , you can live a luxurious life and still be rich you just have to be financially educated do not take your liabilities for assets as most people do , most people for example think that their home is an asset , well no it is a liability because it take money from your pocket every month , while an asset is supposed to bring money into your pocket every month ...big difference ! do not deprive yourself , buy any liability that you want nice house nice car etc , but first buy assets which will later on pay for your assets
Rich Dad Poor Dad is the story of Robert Kiyosaki's financial education. He had two 'dads' - one his real dad, who was poor, and the other, his best friend's dad, who was on his way to becoming a very rich man.
Agree, an important point from Kiyosaki's books and it's strange that it is considered 'controversial' - clearly if something takes money away from you, it is a liability.
ReplyDeletePerhaps a 'house' could be broken down into the house and the mortgage/rental/bills to further clarification?
