The person who has the gold makes the rules. Today, the rich make the rules, which is why the rich are getting richer. Voodoo Economics Or The Trickle-Down Effect One monetary theory encourage tax laws that favor the rich - the idea being, if the rich had more money, they would invest it, thus creating more jobs. Money would trickle down to the poor and middle class. While it sounds good in theory, and while some money does trickle down, the net result is the money stays in the hands of the rich.

What if You Lost It All?

Years ago, when a reporter asked Henry Ford what he would do if he lost his billion dollar fortune, he replied, "I'd have it back in less than five years."

Entitlement Mentality

The best way to solve the problem of bad financial results is to change our thoughts - to start thinking like rich people rather than poor and middle-class people.

Albert Einstein defined insanity as " doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results ". Instead of walking away with a solid financial education, most kids leave school (some already) deeply in debt - prepared only to work hard, save money, get out of debt, invest for the long term and diversify. Warren Buffet says the following about diversification: "Diversification is protection against ignorance. (It) makes very little sense if you know what you are doing." ...

There are no guarantees, but being ready sure beats being taken by surprise. ~ Donald J.Trump Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first. ~ Mark Twain The importance of staying on your guard to be aware of the differences between those who give - the teachers - and those who sell. When it comes to money, many people want to be told exactly what to do. They often ask specific questions, such as "I have $25,000. What should I do with it ?" When you tell people that you don't know what to do with your money, they are happy to tell you what to do... and their recommendation is that you give your money to them. Some people do not want to give people fish or teach others to fish... instead they sell people fish. They are in the business of selling.. not necessarily teaching or giving. When you put the two words, sell and...
