How To Create Wealth: What The Wealthy DoHow To Create Wealth: What The Wealthy Do If you didn't read the first part of this series please feel free to refer back to How To Create Wealth: What the Poor and Middle-Class Do Wrong How To Create Wealth: The Wealthy Buy Assets In order to become wealthy a good place to start is by researching what the wealthy do. The wealthy buy assets, which as was stated in the first part of this series, are things that produce cash. Guess what they do with the cash that is being produced by those assets - they buy more assets. This cycle could go on endlessly as long as the assets are producing more money. We'll discuss a few of the different investments, but here are examples of some types assets:
How To Create Wealth via Real Estate Real Estate can be both a liability and an asset, because it depends on whether it's costing you money or producing you money. For example, when I purchased my first piece of rental property I actually had to put additional money out of my own pocket every month to pay the mortgage. The rent I was charging was not enough to cover my expenses and therefore it was a liability to me. I later reworked my mortgage and was able to increase my rent to the point where it would now produce cash in excess of my expenses and became an asset. That's a big turning point when you first have this realization of the dramatic impact this can cause on your financial future. You now have more cash flow to reinvest in other assets. How To Create Wealth via Education Education is probably one of the biggest assets that everyone should invest in as much as possible. We all heard the phrase "Knowledge is Power" growing up, but it really didn't resonate until I began studying years after graduating university. Learning something and then putting it into action to produce more income is a most valuable asset. For example my real estate investment was not something I just stumbled into. I researched and studied the process of buying property, getting financing, finding the best deal both for financing and value of property and the list could go on. You don't want to blindly get involved in something, educate yourself first. "The Only thing more expensive than education is ignorance" - Benjamin Franklin How To Create Wealth via Business Businesses that create a passive or residual income stream are one of the most optimal strategies for creating wealth. A passive or residual income business basically means that after your initial efforts to build up the business it will continue to generate cash flow for you whether you continue building it or not. Picture purchasing a pin-ball machine and placing it at a bowling alley; then all the cash it generates you save up until you can purchase another pin-ball machine. You can do that over and over again until you have hundreds even thousands all generating you cash flow whether you continue to purchase more or not. This was actually Warren Buffets first business. Warren Buffet, for those who are not familiar with him, is one of the wealthiest people in America today. The wealthy are very willing to search out and find passive or residual income businesses, because they know it will continue to pay them year after year even after they've stopped actively working the business. Then if they choose to they can take those profits and focus them on another business to create more passive income. Remember you are not actively working these businesses, so you have the free time to research and find more opportunities. You won't find any of these residual income businesses, however, unless you are open to hearing about them. Then once you've found them you should consider doing research to make sure it's in alignment with your goals. There are lots of these business opportunities out there for you to find, but you also have to be educated enough that when the right opportunity comes along you don't miss it. (Do Not Overlook Education). What business did Warren Buffet recently state was "The Best Investment He Ever Made"?
