@@@@@ He use to tell us over and over again "An @@@@@ He use to tell us over and over again "An intelligent person hires people who are more intelligent than they are So Mike and I had the benefit of spending hours listening to and, in the process, learning From intelligent people But because of this, both Mike and I just could not go along with the standard dogma that our teachers preached, And that caused the problemsWhenever the teacher said, "If you don't get good grades, you won't do well in the real world," Mike and I just raised our eyebrowsWhen we were told to follow set procedures and not deviate from the rules, we could see how this schooling process actually discouraged creativityWe started to understand why our rich dad told us that schools were designed to produce good employees instead of employers Occasionally Mike or I would ask our teachers how what we studied was applicable, or we asked why we never studied money and how it workedTo the later question, we often got the answer that money was not important, that if we excelled in our education, the money would follow The more we knew about the power of money, the more distant we grew from the teachers and our classmates My highly educated dad never pressured me about my grades But we did begin to argue about moneyBy the time I was 16, I probably had a far better foundation with money than both my mom and dad I could keep books, I listened to tax accountants, corporate attorneys, bankers, real estate brokers, investors and so forth My dad talked to teachers One day, my dad was telling me why our home was his greatest investmentA not-too-pleasant argument took place when I showed him why I thought a house was not a good investment The following diagram illustrates the difference in perception between my rich dad and my poor dad when it came to their homesOne dad thought his house was an asset, and the other dad thought it was a liability I remember when I drew a diagram for my dad showing him the direction of cash flow I also showed him the ancillary expenses that went along with owning the homeA bigger home meant bigger expenses, and the cash flow kept going out through the expense column Today, I am still challenged on the idea of a house not being an assetAnd 1 know that for many people, it is their dream as well as their largest investmentAnd owning your own home is better than noth |
