Introduction to RDPD

One of the reasons the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, and the middle class struggles in debt is that the subject of money is taught at home, not in school.

If you have a habit of saying, "I can't afford it," Well you really can't. Instead of saying "I can't afford it," ask "How can I afford it."
By asking the question "How can I afford it?" your brain is put to work. It doesn't mean that you should buy everything you want. It is about excercising your mind, the most powerful computer in the world.

"Your brain gets stronger every day if you exercise it. The stronger it gets, the more money you can make." I believe that automatically saying "I can't afford it" was a sign of mental laziness.

"Taxes punish those who produce and reward those who don't produce."

"When it comes to money, play it safe. Don't take risks." Which is wrong because you'll live your life inside your comfort zone. Instead, "Learn to manage risks."

Your home is not an asset. "Your house is a liability, and if your house if your largest investment, you're in trouble."

 "There is a difference between being poor and being broke. Broke is temporary. Poor is eternal."

 Instead of saying, "I'm not interested in money," or "Money doesn't matter." Think of it this way,
"Money is power." 

 Money is one form of power. But what is more powerful is financial education. Money comes and goes but if you have the education about how money works, you gain power over it and can begin building wealth. The reason positive thinking along does not work is because most people went to school and never learned how money works, so they spend their lives working for money.

 Loss is painful, guilt can be devastating. Worse than losing one's dream is the knowledge that the loss was self-inflicted. Problems are solutions that have outlived their usefulness. Problems are pattern that were learned in emotional circumstances during one period of life and that now have taken an existence of their own. Many times, outdated solutions replay themselves in a variety of life situations, leaving people mindlessly repeating their mistakes in work, love, and trading. There can be no free will for people who are locked into patterns developed for past challenges. Successful traders are therapists both learn to do what comes unnaturally. The resolution to problems can be found in what people are doing when those problems are not occurring. The problem with many traders is not that they have problems, but that they are focused on their problems. It is this problem focus that prevents them from appreciating what they are doing right, that blinds them to solutions alrea...

Three Choices

When we are unhappy and our Life Conditions do not match our Blueprint, we have three choices as to how we’re going to handle the challenge: First Choice: Blame The first choice people have is to assign blame, and there are three things you can blame: a) Event . There’s a story, something that happened, behind why things are the way they are. However accurate the story may be, blaming an event is convenient because it helps preserve an identity designed to shield us from our true fears: fear of failure and fear of not being loved or accepted. b) Others . “I’m in this situation because this person …” Similarly, the story may be true, but it’s convenient and gives you comfort in the moment. “There’s nothing wrong with me. It’s this other person. There’s nothing I need to change.”  c) Yourself . Most people think that this is being responsible, but blaming yourself will not make it better. There’s a difference between responsibility and beating yourself up—between “Here’s a pattern th...

Wealth File #15 Rich people have their money work hard for them. Poor people work hard for their money

Working hard is important, but working hard alone will never make you rich. Rich people can spend their days playing and relaxing because they work smart. They understand and use leverage. They employ other people to work for them and their money to work for them. You do have to work hard for money. For rich people, however, this is a temporary situation. For poor people, it's permanent.. Rich people understand that "you" have to work hard until your "money" works hard enough to take your place they understand  the more your money works, the less you will have to work. To win the money game, the goal is to earn enough passive income to pay for your desired lifestyle. In short, you become financially free when your passive income exceeds your expenses. Rich people think long-term. They balance their spending on enjoyment today with investing for freedom tomorrow. Poor people think short-term. They run their lives based on immediate gratifications. To in...
