"Just take this measly 10 cents an hour and smile?"
Rich dad smiled"That's what the other people doJust accept a paycheck knowing that they and their family will struggle financiallyBut that's all they do, waiting for a raise thinking that more money will solve the problemMost just accept it, and some take a second job working harder, but again accepting a small paycheck
I sat staring at the floor, beginning to understand the lesson rich dad was presentingI could sense it was a taste of lifeFinally, I looked up and repeated the question"So what will solve the problem?"
"This," he said tapping me gently on the head"This stuff miu miu nappa between your ears
It was at that moment that rich dad shared the pivotal point of view that separated him from his employees and my poor dad-and led him to eventually become one of the richest men in Hawaii while my highly educated, but poor, dad struggled financially all his lifeIt was a singular point of view that made all the difference over a lifetime
Rich dad said over and over, this point of view, which I call Lesson No

"The poor and the middle class work for money "The rich have money work for them

On that bright Saturday morning, I was learning a completely different point of view from what I had been taught by my poor fake cheap chanel handbags with cc logo dadAt the age of 9, I grew aware that both dads wanted me to learnBoth dads encouraged me to studybut not the same things
My highly educated dad recommended that I do what he did"Son, I want you to study hard, get good grades, so you can find a safe, secure job with a big companyAnd make sure it has excellent benefits My rich dad wanted me to learn how money works so I could make it work for meThese lessons I would learn through life with his guidance, not because of a classroom
My rich dad continued my first lesson, "I'm glad you got angry about working for 10 cents an hourIf you had not gotten angry and had gladly accepted it, I fake cartier watches would have to tell you that I could not teach youYou see, true learning takes energy, passion, a burning desireAnger is a big part of that formula, for passion is anger and love combinedWhen it comes to money, most people want to play it safe and feel secureSo passion does not direct them: Fear does
"So is that why they'll take a job with low par?" I asked
"Yes," said rich dad"Some people say I exploit people because I don't pay as much as the sugar plantation or the governmentI say the people exploit themselvesIt's their fear, not mine
"But don't you feel you should pay them more?" I askedAnd besides, more money will not solve the tiffany bracelets problemJust look at your dadHe makes a lot of money, and he still can't pay his billsMost people, given more money, only get into more debt
"So that's why the 10 cents an hour," I said, smiling"It's a part of the lesson
"That's right," smiled rich dad"You see, your dad went to school and got an excellent education, so he could get a high-paying jobBut he still has money problems because he never learned anything about money at schoolOn top of that, he believes in working for money
"And you don't?" I asked
"No, not really," said rich dad"If you want to learn to work for money, then stay in schoolThat is a great place to learn to do j12 chanel watch
