The History of taxes and the power of corporations

The reality is that the rich are not taxed. It's the middle class, especially the educated upper-income middle class, who pays for the poor.

Every time people try to punish the rich, the rich don't simply comply. They react. They have the money,power, and intent to change things.

If you work for money, you give the power to your employer. If money works for you, you keep the power and control it.

Knowledge is power. And with money comes great power that requires the right knowledge to keep it and make it multiply without that knowledge, the world pushes you around.

"Be smart and you won't be pushed around as much."
"If you know you're right, you're not afraid of fighting back."

Each dollar in my asset column was a great employee, working harad to make more employees and buy the boss a new porsche.

Financial IQ is made up of knowledge from four broad areas of expertise:
1.Accounting is financial literacy or the ability to read numbers. Financial literacy is the ability to read and understand financial statements which allows you to identify the strengths and weaknesses of any business.

2.Investing - This involves strategies and formulas that use the creative right-brain side.

3.Understanding markets is the science of supply and demand. You need to know the technical aspects of the market which are emotion - driven, in addition to the fundamental or economic aspects of an investment.

4.The law - A person who understands the tax advantages and protections provided by a corporation can get rich so much faster than someone who is an employee or a small business sole proprietor.

 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 Many times, outdated solutions replay themselves in a variety of life situations, leaving people mindlessly repeating their mistakes in work, love, and trading.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.

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.

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.
