Money Making Online

Based on Kiyosaki’s work

If you have a job and someone asks you why you work, what would be your answer? The more fortunate people would answer the job makes them happy. However, in some cases it would be a lie that people want to be true. If it is true, then the life can be really enjoyable for those people who love their jobs.

Other people would answer they have a job to learn some skills. That is a great answer and an excellent way of thinking. The jobs are a great opportunity to learn a lot of types of skills: from interpersonal relationships to managerial abilities. In fact, from a good financial point of view, it should be the only reason to get a job unless it really makes us very happy.

Finally, most people would have to answer (and some people lie) that the reason to have a job is because they need to pay their bills. And that includes to sustain their families and afford their living.

I would say that the proportion between people, who work because they really enjoy their job, and those who work to pay bills is almost the same proportion that exists between the rich people and the poor people. Perhaps, a lot less than 10% of employees are really happy in their jobs. And when one person is really happy in a job, then the work becomes like a hobby.

But the hard reality is that approximately 90% of the employees are working in order to pay their bills. Fear takes control. They have fear about not having enough money. They only think about paying the monthly bills, and they cannot see the whole picture that would show them another way of life. Basically, the fear is the most destructive emotion we can have in our financial life.

But fear is not the only destructive emotion. The extreme greed is also destructive. Employees also feel it. Every time they get their check, the greed (or desire) comes in. They go out to spend their money on things that they think might make them happy, but at the end of the day, the “happiness” is only temporary. And again, they need more money to pay for a bigger house, a better car, more beautiful clothes, more expensive vacations, new jewels, high technology gadgets, and so on. Fear always comes back to them at the end of the month, and some people take a “risk” by asking for a pay rise. If they get it, then they are happy for a while, only to realize later that more money doesn’t solve the problems of living with fear. Most of the time, more money means more debt. Many middle class people feel this way.

On the other hand, if you think like rich people think, you will realize many of them learned how to control those emotions: the fear and the greed, although these emotions are always present. Fear and greed are the two main emotions that people need to overcome in order to improve their financial situation.

Rich people don’t work for money. On the contrary, they find ways to put the money to work for them, even while they sleep. To achieve it, they almost always use two resources: either the time of other people (people who work for them) or the money of other people (for example, from the bank). They either own businesses or they invest money to receive residual income. Usually, they take calculated risks. That is because they have knowledge and experience.

Creating a part-time business and learning investment strategies are two things you should try if you are not happy in your job. Also, keep in mind that other people’s time and money are powerful tools if you are able to use them efficiently and legally. They can be much more profitable than any salary increase.
