The
Path To True Financial Independence Means Financial Education
Today’s generation is much
less self reliant than previous ones; few, it seems, even know what the Boy
Scouts are or anything about budgeting.
I blame this on schools and parents who often live paycheck to
paycheck-EVEN well paid government employees were whining after going a few
weeks without a paycheck. Seems no one
sets aside any cash for emergencies but all have plenty to purchase $1,000
I-Phones [which support Communist China].
Rich Man-Poor Man
offers five solid principles:
1[ The poor and the middle-class work for money. The rich have
money work for them.
2] It’s not how much money you make that matters. It’s how much
money you keep.
3] Rich people acquire assets. The poor and middle class acquire
liabilities that they think are assets.
4] Financial aptitude is what you do with money once you make
it, how you keep people from taking it from you, how to keep it longer, and how
you make money work hard for you.
5] The single most powerful asset we all have is our mind.
These principles work no matter what the economy is doing.
The
Path To True Financial Independence Means Financial Education
In today's economy, it's much riskier to rely on your employer
for your well-being than it is to become financially educated and to invest
your money wisely. It's also risky to put your money in the bank and collect
interest that barely covers inflation. And if inflation really takes off,
you'll actually lose money.
As many people learned over the last decade, it's risky to
consider yourpersonal home as your primary investment. And it's risky to put
all yourhope in a broker and a 401(k) for your retirement investments.
Today, if you want to be financially secure and free, you must
learn to invest (click

Things that Happen to People When They Don’t Invest
Learning to invest is important because it's the key to
financial independence. Five things happen to those who don't know how to
invest, who do not invest, and who invest poorly.
1. They work hard all their lives
2. They worry about money all their lives
3. They depend on others, such as family, a company pension, or
the government to take care of them
4. The boundaries of their lives are defined by money
5. They don't know what true freedom is
Growing up, my “rich dad” said, "You will never know true
freedom until you achieve financial independence." By this he meant that
learning to invest is more important than learning a profession.
Unfortunately, learning a profession is what most education in
our schools is built to do. Our schools are good at training employees but not
investors who understand how money works.
The result is an army of people who are afraid of money and
investing, and who, for their living, rely on those who understand money and
investing, like their employer or their landlord.
Rich dad also said, "When you learn a profession, let's say
to be a doctor, you learn how to work for money. Learning to invest is learning
how to have money work for you. The moment you have money work for you, you
have your ticket to freedom."
Valuable
Investing Lessons from My Rich Dad
My rich dad played Monopoly® in real life, and he often took his
son and me to see his real-life houses and hotels. Watching my rich dad, I
learned many valuable lessons about investing, some of which are:
- Investing
is not risky
- Investing
is fun
- Investing
can make you very, very rich
- Investing
can set you free from the struggle of earning for a living and worrying
about money
In other words, if you are financially educated, you can build a
pipeline of cash flow for life by investing — a pipeline that produces cash in
good times and bad times, in markets that both boom and bust.
Don't risk your future by believing the lie that investing is
risky. It's not, and you can be free.
Today, I encourage you to begin your financial education and to
move from the risky life of an employee to the financially free life of an
investor.
I want you to be rich, and so does Donald Trump.
Before Donald Trump was president, he sat down with me to write
a book. It was called Why We Want You to Be Rich.

PARTING THOUGHT
A foreign
super-government now has the power to regulate what you can and can’t see on
the internet.
Following a controversial court ruling that garnered almost no
major media coverage in the United States, foreign bureaucrats won the power to
censor free speech on social media sites.
And, things are only going to get worse from here…
Socialism appears to be

The Reliant
After an innocent trip to the store ends in
rioting and chaos, father of five, Rick (Kevin Sorbo), rushes home desperate to
gather his family and find safety. His plans are dashed when the very same
armed men suddenly appear, led by the ruthless Jack (Brian Bosworth). Caught in
the deadly crossfire, the children are forced to seek shelter in the
surrounding woods.
Alone and vulnerable, the children's faith and family bonds are pushed to the limit, especially those of the eldest daughter, Sophie (Mollee Gray), who questions the morality of gun ownership but soon learns that in God all things are good, including her family's Second Amendment right to defend themselves. It is now up to the children to reclaim their home, find their parents and put an end to Jack's rampage.
At the heart of The Reliant is a love story. It's an anthem of hope in the hardest of times, of forgiveness, and of redemption.
Now, you can imagine that "a pro-Second Amendment, faith-based action film" doesn't just happen — especially in Hollywood.
The truth is, we needed a lot of time — and a lot of help — to get this movie off the ground.
That's why I couldn't be more excited to announce that The Reliant is finally hitting theaters next week. For one day ONLY — Oct. 24 — it will play on the big screen at 700+ locations across the country.
