Robert Kiyosaki was a US citizen. I know he talked about how he used debt to become rich because he used his debts to purchase assets and not liabilities. The reason why I had to mention the country where this man comes from is because if he had come from another country, maybe an underdeveloped country, he probably would not have archived what he did archive with his debts.
He was the son of Japanese immigrants, and rather poor ones at that (well at least compared to whoever that rich dad guy is). His poor dad pushed him to get a degree and stuff like that.
It's a fact that you can actually take a loan to make an investment or purchase an asset but still don't get the expected returns due to the circumstances of the bad investment. For example, people are advised not to take out loans and invest in Bitcoin.
Well duh, Bitcoin is not a stable asset
it is profitable but it it also takes a long time to get there, and most loans do not last that long and the lenders aren't as patient by comparison. It is strictly for short-term ventures.
Hmm, so what's your thought about nepo babies? They are born with generational wealth and they don't need to work hard just to get things that they want in life, but if you are a normal perso who wants to get rich or wants to have a confortable life for your family then you need to work hard and to work smart just to gain a lot of money. for me, it's not enough that you just work unless you get the highest position and have the highest salary offer, but if you're a normal employee, it's hard or it'll take a long time before you can achieve the financial stability you're looking for. It's really better that we should have other sources of income such as sideline business or investment and of course we should also know how to handle money because if we don't know how, it's possible that all the money that passes through in our bank accounts will run out immediately if you don't use it properly.
We can't judge a person by their circumstances, only by their actions.
