Four Pillars of Creating Wealth

Written by Yochention Saritoh


Some people in this world are thinking that their poor financial condition today is their destiny. They keep telling themselves that they’ll never get rich in this lifetime. Are you one of those people? If you are, it’s a good thing that you find this article, because I want to personally give you four pillars of creating wealth that are being done by many rich people in this world.

These rich people just know how to get out of their financial problem and start to create wealth. They are just likerepparttar rest of us, they don’t have a special talent, and they are not good looking people or movie star either.

So, you start to wonder how they can become wealthy, rich and even financially free.

Here arerepparttar 139743 secret they know that most of us have heard about. The problem is laid on all of us. We usually just letrepparttar 139744 information passing us, and we don’t do anything about those information. Now, it’srepparttar 139745 time for me to remind all of us, and start to do something about it.

The first pillars that we might want to do is own a business. Here isrepparttar 139746 tricky part, owning a business give you a financial freedom, but it also can give you a new headache. What I meant is that every one of us needs to runrepparttar 139747 business that has a system. This system has to be created in such a way that makerepparttar 139748 business can run withoutrepparttar 139749 constant intervene from us. I will suggest you to read an excellence book about it called “E-Myth revisited” by Michael E. Gerber.

If you want to start with a business that already has proven system, you might want to consider a franchise. A good franchise usually will provide you with a proven working system to their franchisee. So,repparttar 139750 franchisee can start their business smoothly and quickly.

The next one onrepparttar 139751 list will be real estates. A lot of American nowadays is enjoying a big raise on real estates value inrepparttar 139752 past couple years. Some of them have multiply their asset by double in these couple years alone. The tricky question is how they know that their property value will be going up. Well,repparttar 139753 answer is they don’t know either. It’s just a pure luck, that’s what I think. This won’t make anybody to achieve financial freedom.

What can make everyone to achieve financial freedom in real estate is by buying a real estate with somebody else money. Yes, with somebody else money. Here isrepparttar 139754 story I got from a janitor in San Francisco. He works as a janitor but he owns 2 houses in San Francisco. You might ask how he can do that. The answer is he bought his house on a mortgage with a very low interest income. He splitsrepparttar 139755 house into two rooms that he rented out for two families that has to pay him rental fee each month. With that money he can finance his mortgage with somebody else’s money. Smart, isn’t he?
