Unfair Advantage -The Power of Financial Education (34 page)
Conversely, life will grow easier for those who follow the three Laws of Compensation:
Give more to receive more.
Learn to give more, on the B and I side.
Leverage the power of compounding knowledge.
Not only will life be more abundant, but the government will offer you tax breaks, banks will loan you money to buy your assets, and Wall Street will raise money for entrepreneurs in the B quadrant.
Why are socialists and fascists so generous to capitalists? The answer is: They need capitalists. Without capitalists, socialists and fascists would be attacked by angry, hungry, out-of-work mobs.
Your financial education can give you an unfair advantage by preventing you from becoming a victim of the power play between the workers and the leaders.
Rather than be trapped between protesting workers and politicians, just focus on true capitalism.
Learn more so you can do more. Focus on doing more with less, and enriching the lives of others.
My Job… and Your Job
One of my heroes is Steve Jobs, co-founder and CEO of Apple, Inc. If not for Steve Jobs, I would never have written
Rich Dad Poor Dad
in 1997, or be using my iPhone to talk to the world.
Steve, a true entrepreneur and capitalist, made my life easier so that I could do my work of making other people’s lives easier through financial education.
Your job is to use your unfair advantages to put the power of financial education to work in your life. First change yourself. Then change the world.
About The Author
Robert Kiyosaki
Educational entrepreneur, creator of the
CASHFLOW
board game, founder of the financial education-based Rich Dad Company and author of
New York Times
bestsellers
Conspiracy of the Rich: The 8 New Rules of Money
and
Rich Dad Poor Dad
Robert Kiyosaki is best known as the author of
Rich Dad Poor Dad
—the #1 personal finance book of all time—which has challenged and changed the way tens of millions of people around the world think about money. Rich Dad titles hold four of the top ten spots on Nielsen Bookscan List’s Life-to-Date Sales from 2001-2008 alone. Robert has been featured on shows such as
Larry King Live, Oprah, The Doctors,
Bloomberg International Television and CNN.
With perspectives on money and investing that often contradict conventional wisdom, Robert has earned a reputation for straight talk, irreverence and courage. His point of view (that old advice—get a good job, save money, get out of debt, invest for the long term, and diversify—is obsolete advice) challenges the status quo. His assertion that “your house is not an asset” has stirred controversy, but has been proven to be accurate in our economy’s current financial crisis.
In 2006, Robert teamed up with Donald Trump to co-author
Why We Want You To Be Rich –
Two Men • One Message
. It debuted at #1 on
The New York Times
bestsellers list.
Robert was featured in TIME magazine’s popular “10 Questions” column where Robert answered questions ranging from investing with few resources to the impact of education on one’s financial success.
Robert’s latest book,
Conspiracy of the Rich: The 8 New Rules of Money,
