Rhyme and Read:Rich Dad Poor Dad BY Robert T. Kiyosaki, Sharon L. Lechter

In my youth, I had two dads, both so wise,
One rich, one poor, giving me different advice,
My poor dad toiled hard, but money was scarce,
My rich dad knew money was not a farce.

My poor dad taught me to get good grades,
And work hard, no matter what life throws in shades,
But my rich dad taught me to think differently,
To make money work for me, to be free.

My poor dad believed studying was the key to success,
In his mind, a job was the ultimate progress,
He couldn't see the bigger picture, the wider view,
That studying should be a tool, not a life issue.

I learned to invest, and not just save,
To make my money work, and not be a slave,
To use my mind to create passive income,
So I can live life to the fullest and never succumb.

I discovered the power of assets over liabilities,
And the value of financial stability,
I learned to take calculated risks,
And not be afraid to seek my dreams with bliss.

So if you want to be rich, don't just work hard,
Think like a rich person, and play the right card,
Invest your money, and let it grow,
And build your wealth, as your money flows.

I guess the main reason behind a successful man is the ability to think and create innovative ideas.

However, this doesn't rule out the 'hardwork' factor. Let's not fully depend on just getting a white collar job. Let's aim higher, let's think ahead.

Beautiful one✨

I think everyone that is here is currently aiming higher!

I think it takes money to make money. Investing for example, takes up a lot of cash. The same thing could be said for running a business or even starting a web 3 project. However, I do agree that there will come a point in time where you have to start considering as to how to make your money work for you. It is a goal for many of us in the Web 3, Crypto, and NFT space

If you don't have enought money to invest in projects, Just invest in yourself, Grow your knowledge and the money will come.
