You’ll Never Become Wealthy by Following the Standard Advice
Don’t believe the hype, do this instead
All the advice you’ve heard about getting rich is bullshit.
How do I know? Because I’ve tried it all and I’m still broke.
Invest in real estate, manage your portfolio, compound interest, diversify, blah blah blah…all nonsense. Do that and you’ll remain poor forever.
Becoming wealthy vs Investing your wealth
Most of the advice on how to become wealthy is given by millionaires, nothing wrong with that, you would not listen to a broke person giving advice about money, right?
However, these gurus tell you how to invest your money ONCE you’ve got it, but not how to get it in the first place! And that’s what you need to know!
Take Robert Kiyosaki for example. Great guy with a lot of sound strategies, but his advice is mainly: start a business, buy real estate, and buy gold.
Is that how he got rich? No. He made his fortune selling books.
He did start a business but failed. He has made money in real estate but as a very long term investment (25 years or longer) All that thanks to getting cheap credit by leveraging his wealth.
