the general rule is to get appreciating assets..
where by eventually you can live off just the income/rental/commission/interest/deflation growth, of the asset without having to sell/dispose/lose the underlying assets principal
once you get to a certain level of comfort and sustained profit from the untouched asset. you then start investing in your offsprings future to get to their goals
your home is not an asset if its on a mortgage(+repairs, insurances, county taxes) as costs outweight appreciation
cars are not an asset(cars depreciate)
the dream of future appreciation when paid off/becomes "a classic" does not mean its currently an asset if its costing you/losing you value right now
if you have a house paid in full and it appreciates more then ongoing costs. then you have an asset
if or if not appreciating above cost but you rent it to cover its maintenance/county tax/insurance costs so that you get more back than you put in
then its an asset
a business is not an asset if it requires your presence each day and doesnt even break even with your involvement/time.
a business is an asset if even after costs of delegating labour to operate it without you, the business profits/self sustainable
when you get assets, never sell the asset principal. just live on, or use the profit/income/interest gain from the asset to grow more asset
those accounting gibberish, no matter how many times I go through it, it was nothing but a filler to the book that provide nothing of values, that is also true for a lot of accounting online classes you could learn from internet, accounting os itself an art of deceiving, anyone who read it and try to master this art become so delusional their brain could bot function normally and they eventually crave self-harm, just look at tim cook and his views of inventory is fundamentally toxic, every damn accountant are behave just the same they crave deflating instead of expanding. in the other word vulture behavior that is all about extracting values, provider hunting, or back stabbing, whichever you liken.
Ok, richdad poordad is about getting out of school and get a hold of your finance, get out of rat race and leave the cage, but what else to do after you had made it? I do not like richdad poordad for not having a complete guide, they just stop right at the middle of nowhere, and left the rest to the reader to figure them out...
I don't think there is a book that contains a complete guide to financial independence. Each author will present his views based on his own studies or personal experience. You have the responsibility of researching more to cover up lapses in a book or to gain more information. It is not all the information that Robert Kiyosaki gave out in that book that I practice because some of them might not suit my condition. I means there must be a guide or something after you get near to the point of retirement, btw in his book, he just roughly get through it, he describe himself after he sold his business, and he reach where he think is the hardest thing to do in his life, he couldnt get busy in life, and do not know how to proceed, but there is nothing else in the book except he say he have no answer to that part of his life.
The content of the book Rich Dad Poor Dad is mainly the author's personal experience of his two fathers. He might not have sound knowledge about retirement since he has not gotten much information or experience on the topic. I think a retiree would be the best author to write on retirement. Robert Kiyosaki is not a master of all but there there are many books on retirement that could be helpful. I could find some missing pieces all over the internet, but due to my limited knowledges also language/grammar barriers, I had a hard time to convey the ideas presented, dont get me wrong there is probably puzzling tweets during the span of 2018 to 2021 that I had totally no ideas how they even quote those tweets, I mean both logically or illogically, I still looking at them now and couldn't get a clue of them, totally no ideas how they could benefit financially from their tweets. richdad poordad did a good job by compilating some of the very difficult knowledge into layman terms, I wonder if there isnt richdad poordad handbook to be read, we would still doing exactly what the rat race doing, and escalating wars that go far beyond! |

It’s been years since I’ve read the book. Basically if I remember the book correctly, he says that you need assets like real estate that can work for you while you are sleeping. Saying that working for someone else 9-5 but not investing that money to make you money is not smart.
So he just wants people to invest in real estate or some business which can make them money instead of just spending your hard earned money.
It was a very popular book. Maybe it helped some people. But keep in mind he makes tweets all the time about the coming recession and he is always wrong. So don’t trust his stock tips.
he probably cant build a school to indoctrine a new batch of warriors for him. But I think twitter is in the mess, I couldnt browse and get update from the tweets with some browser, it look to me, his twitter has been frozen since 2022 nov and edward snowden move to another platform after foresight the trouble, and get no updates since ever, idk what is going on. |

so what is there to do? there is so many scammers out there what is richhdad poordad guide to proceed at this point? is there a handbook for thing like this?
What do you mean by this? is it related to privacy and security? I think not every person want to share 100% of his life and master in everything. Most of rich people are good negotiators, it's not make sense for them to tell this in public. They might know how to differentiate between scammer and honest person, let's say they judge using body language, when someone did this or that, it's not genuine person and better to avoid such kind person in financial trade. If they tell this to public, the scammer will learn how to being a genuine person. I means there must be a guide or something after you get near to the point of retirement, btw in his book, he just roughly get through it, he describe himself after he sold his business, and he reach where he think is the hardest thing to do in his life, he couldnt get busy in life, and do not know how to proceed, but there is nothing else in the book except he say he have no answer to that part of his life. |

I dont fancy giving away the thing to charity btw.
I know elon or warren must have their handbook to guide them, but I doubt they would want anyone to know and read their guide book.

A man and his dad was talking one day…
-Dad, how is the marriage life? Is it good?
+Yes son. It is a wonderful thing. When you get married you will have somebody you can share your troubles with.
-But dad, I have no trouble…
+Don’t worry son, You will have it when you get married!

This is just the 20th day in January. 2024 is still too young for you to conclude it's boring. I still believe you really need to find that spark that got you to get married in the first place. In life you have to create what you want for your self. Your friends may have left you or gotten estranged from you either cause they too have their families to build or they kind of have your mentality towards friendship because I don't really see why we'd need to get distant with each other the moment one of us gets married.
Truth is, sometimes we create a mountain out of a mole and feel you've got a dismal outlook on life and marriage cause you've not really found your rhythm. You and your spouse could do fun things together despite being married or there are kids, it's just a matter of understanding and planning.
nope, you confused, I didnt say it is boring, and need more challenging. I means it is too lonely, there is nobody, because of you, I never had to sleep on the street, because of you I never gonna need to... because of you u.... u.... |

contradict to popular belief, after getting married, life become twice more lonely, because all friends leave me immediately, and my wife and kids basically treat me as stranger, I become super lonely although on my social page I post a happy family group selfie, but deep inside me I crave that loneliness so badly that I need validation from you I'm not alone, I have a big family in the picture to show you I'm not ALONE!
You should seek psychological treatment. I don't know what your living situation is, but are you willing to share the secrets of your thoughts with your partner? I also went through some periods of stress and pressure in my life that caused me to lose sleep for many months. During the quiet time, I realized I needed to change my current situation. I found community activities, and the joy gradually returned, but I gradually let go of my previous relationship and I really felt happy when I was alone, sitting and looking at the flower garden, everything around me was beautiful very meaningful and grateful for life. Maybe you need motivation to get through this stage of life. Anyway, I hope you soon realize that you are not lost in the crowd, disconnection does not mean loneliness, it just means you haven't realized it yet create many wonderful things in your own life. probably gonna get some depression drugs, and those red and blue pills which is very expensive to get |

There are factors that make your friend move on and also your family treats you like a stranger.
Possible Reasons why your friends left you1. You are married and have responsibilities to catter for. Perhaps you dont have that time you spend with them anymore. All you think of now is family. In Your discussion with them, you often talk about your wife and children and it makes your friend jealous of you especially when they haven't got married. Or dey prefer still being single and never want to be boderd about marriage issues. Rather thinks of flet. 2 it might possibly be that your wife doesn't give your friend space to come in, after you both got married. And her reasons might be that your friends should limit coming close to you because you have more responsibilities like never before. And then coming close to you might be a bad influence to you. Because women always think alkwardly. Forgetting that most of those friends who she never want close to you where there for you before marriage and possibly the reason why you got married do to their advices. 3. Maybe you also dance according to your wife tone. When you fail to control a woman, she controls you. And when a man is controlled by a woman he doesn't know that he's been controlled. because we men always ditest the word control. When your wife tell you to do this or do that, and you do without given it a thought it's a sign of control. Thought I don't know what you define as control, but in Africa that is how we define control by a woman. she doesn't want to see your friends around and you also tell them that your wife doesn't want them anymore, or you avoid them indirectly it's a sigh of being controlled by a woman. So check yourself. Possible Reasons why you are married and still lonely.1. it could be that you married your wife but don't understand her. Women love attention and affection, you might be a married man and also a boring husband. Sometimes make out time to go out for fun. Give her attention or pay a listening👂to her. To know what she likes and what she doesn't like. 2. Stinginess is also another thing women hate. If you are always hand tight of releasing money or always monitoring every activity in the house it causes problems. Sometimes you should also be romatic in bed. Those things cause problems but you will never know. 3. For peace to rain 🌧️ in your home, wake her at 12:am in the morning and ask her what is the problem? And tell her to open up and tell her you want to make amendments this year and allow her speak on her grieviences then you both can resolve. that is a lot of juicy details, idk how to get start, they leave me, they all leave me that is all i can know, i also dunno why guy are telling to visit physchology practitioners, I mean what is the point? |

What you need to do is to not find validation but find the reason why all your friends leave and your family treat you as a stranger that just does not happen for no reason kids love their parents especially if they see that their parents really do care for them but if even your kids do not show that appreciation then maybe you have been doing something wrong
If you feel alone then try to reconcile with your family
It just happens, naturally, even animals do this, voluntarily, do you see your cats or dogs do the same too? |

instead of complaining.. find the solution
you say when you got married/had kids your old friends moved on
well find a new hobby.
what sports do your kids do. become friends with the other soccer parents or whatever hobby they like or you like
save up a small amount of money even if its $2 a day and then once a month have a $60 experience involving people you want to experience things
whether its a romantic date with wife or taking kids to some entertainment venue
look on google for local social clubs
I cant believe none of you have the same vibes. Find the solution? Really? |

that is how fragile in reality a friendship really worth.
as soon as the monetary gain stop, the friendship too fall apart altogether immediately as short as a few weeks. how things quickly turn to shit!
when you stop paying taxes to the govt, very quickly you would get a lot of bad omen coming directly from the third party, either directly or indirectly, either physically or mentally.
when I stop paying child support to her, our marriage quickly self denotes, and there is bascially nothing can be done to reverse that.

this day the life is driving me crazy, idk how long it would take for thing to return to new normal, or improvement, or may be it would never return only going to worse.
wake up, looking at wall, breakfast lunch dinner, meet a few guys to trade some daily goods for at most two hours, and go home to look at walls again, for some reason, the cost of living here is quite interesting, there is many black market price for a lot of goods, you can save a lot of money/spend very little even during hyperinflation if the person recognize you and they do give you some goods for no money or very little cost. Totally unregulated market and price fixing is not possible during like this. I'm not saying I like the idea, but the insecurity is out of chart people are doing business with their door closed tightly, until you call them to open the door for you to enter.
that is pretty much sum up all, it sound like living in a cave, but this cave is one large cave with small community inside who live a totally unregulated market, where price fixing is not possible, but highly depend on recognition.
however foods has severe shortage, and quality of foods is certainly down to drain, we just barely eat foods that is below frugal, I cant even tell clearly what is inside the foods I ate, whether it contain chemicals, hormones or some questionable harmful additive, whether the foods is naturally derived or massively grow in labs, it certainly doesnt taste good, taste like some glue or some sort, both the meat or vegetable taste like glue idk how they could taste like that, is it caused by chemicals or something that is lab made but it is strange to me, I think I should avoid foods that can be bought from market and begin to farm own foods which I have more control of the health of the foods.

this is a question that I would always choose to ignore between 2008 to 2021. But after the pandemic, it begin to make a lot of sense, but I would still unable to answer this question. If there is anything at all, I can say it is all nature intended, it is a curse of biological body, a curse that is planted since day one, that reproduction is the only goal, nothing else, nothing else matter, not about money, nor about material gain, nor again survival, nor about welfare, all just for the sake of reproduction.

so if I pretend dead would my friend really forget me completely ever existed in this world? would the govt really believe I'm officially dead and leave me alone in the afterlife? so is it possible to pretend ourselves to be dead and disappeared and finally making a fake official dead notice on news and announce to the entire world?
If you focus your energy on what people thinks about you then you are making a big mistake because you can never please everybody. Even if you die, life will still go on for the living so it will be good to live your best life and not be too concerned whether you will please everybody. There is no need to pretend to be dead because you'll still be forgotten or atmost be remembered once in a while, nobody deserves to take away your happiness, except yourself. If you feel like your family and friends don't deserve you, then take a break from them, relocate or cease communications for something, do something meaningful with your life, try and become a better version of yourself, reemerge and they'll surely respect you more, because success is everybody's friend. to be happy. honestly you can never be happier than wild animal, wild animal do not need govt to tell you what is legal and what is not. Animal also do not need marriage to legally have child, also animal do not serve military, animal is as good as non existent to the govt. btw pretend dead doesnt stop you to need to have kid legally, here pretend dead seem less priviledge than wild animal imo animals is differentiated by human beings so you cannot make a comparison between animal legality at the human legality is Society animals does not have a bylaw or else human being have a bylaw and they listing, and they also follow rules and regulations for particular environment so that is what we cannot compare animal life with human life so what do I emphasizing on is a woman characteristics and how the earn they're living yeah, animal is animal, human is human, human is not animal, human is super intelligent, super form of living creature. |

Life must have been hard for you or your current experience in life is just so bad and i sympathize with you.
one thing you must know is everyone has his or her raise to run and so you shouldn't expect your friends to help you run yours. Yes people can betray but its only when you trust them that they betray. what you lack now is independence and you should achieve that as fast as possible so never to get hurt again.
I will advise you that if to fake your death will bring you peace of mind just flee away from you environment, go to some where far and create a new life for yourself and never make friends for its benefits.
I find adding friend make life even more harder, because when you are child you dont really get a friend at all but that time you are so very free of anything and burden in life, when friends become deeper to you, it seem the childhood stress free feeling begin to fade, become an obligation, become responsible to a friendship, and for what sake is god know. |

Hey OP, I don't understand what your feelings are about this life, but the negativity is present in the message you are conveying. Do you actually understand what death is?
Remember one thing, your parents never expected you to have such thoughts about life. Maybe your current life situation is facing a lot of pressure, but don't feel like that and give up. Because somewhere else on this earth, there are many people whose lives are more miserable than yours and they still have to continue to survive and adapt to this life. You have the ability that's why you're here, and don't waste it by trying harder to solve the problems at hand.
I also went through difficult times in life, and after that process I realized that challenges are for us to overcome, not for challenges to engulf life. So hopefully you can feel the positivity in life without trying harder, wishing you good luck on your upcoming journey.
what? I have keep my quote on my profile for many years and didnt changed once, idk how many years ago, I think more than five years and never changed once, I dont think it is even hard to decipher a five years old quote to anyone. |

Of what advantage is it if you when people say that you're dead and you aren't, are you scared about life itself of the people you're living with, or is it the government that you wanted to take full responsibility of everything that has to do with you, declaring one being dead means your total disappearance is needed and it's only you that will believe you aren't dead, your family, government and the entire world will know you're dead while you're still alive somewhere unknown to anyone, but what profited a man in doing this. what advantages?? let see, if I'm dead the country would not demand me to work for military during my adolescent age because they do not need dead guy to serve military. There is a lot of advanatages it repel you from a lot of mf who come to you to look for gains. |

I'm really sorry you're going through this. Talking to friends, family, or a pro can make a big difference. Pretending to be dead isn't the answer. It's better to open up and get support. Communicate with your friends about how you're feeling or consider talking to a mental health pro. There are healthier ways to cope than going to extremes like pretending to be dead.
It is nothing compare to those getting send to wars and get injured or killed, obviously if I pretending dead would the recruiter come to me and make me go to fight the wars to get killed? I know a lot of guy are not much dfference than Vladmidir Putin, those high achiever all behave just like nazi and making someone else to work toward elimination, obviously Putin is often get the headlines for funding wars. |
