Sociologists, economists and politicians are dealing with the problem of stratification of society into rich and poor. Wealth is the ability to "stay afloat" for as long as possible without having a job. Poverty is divided into absolute and relative. With absolute poverty, a person is unable to maintain a minimum level of health and work capacity due to a lack of resources. Relative poverty is characterized by lagging behind the standard of living of the rich in a particular society.
Instructions
Step 1
Some people think poverty is destiny. On the other hand, there are factors that a person cannot influence, but there are those that depend on their own efforts. Then fate can be considered the place and time of birth, the environment in childhood, the opportunity to receive education, etc. The rest depends on the person.
Step 2
Robert Kiyosaki, a famous American entrepreneur, grew up in an ordinary poor family, but from childhood he received instructions and lessons from a wealthy acquaintance. As a result, he was able to change his life, earn millions of dollars. He believes that the difference between rich and poor is formed not by the thickness of the wallet, but by the way of thinking of both.
Step 3
This is due to the fact that the poor learn the rules of life at school and at home, but in the real world there are other laws by which the rich play. The poor advise children to study well in order to work in a strong company; the rich encourage their children to study in order to own a company. Both paths involve getting an education, but the subjects are different.
Step 4
The rich encourage people to talk about money and business at the dinner table; the poor forbid their children to talk about such topics. The rich teach children to take risks in order to take advantage of opportunities; the poor are taught to avoid risk, strive for stability, look for appropriate work.
Step 5
The rich teach kids how to write strong business plans so they can create jobs. Poor people want their kids to learn how to write good resumes so they can get a job quickly.
Step 6
In a state of ruin, the rich believe that this is temporary. The poor are convinced that they will never get rich - this is becoming a reality.
Step 7
The rich tell kids to work for free to get their brains to look for business opportunities, to use their imaginations. The poor seek money and blame other people and circumstances for their troubles. The main reason for poverty is fear, unwillingness to learn, so people seek security and do not see opportunities.
Step 8
The rich believe that they need to learn and become richer through changes in themselves. The poor believe that money will solve their problems. The rich know the difference between an asset and a liability and buy or create assets. The poor spend their available funds only on liabilities. Financial illiteracy leads the poor to struggle for existence.
Step 9
The rich believe that a high financial IQ implies knowledge in four areas: accounting, investing, marketing, and legal. This allows the wealthy to legally exploit tax loopholes. The rich make money through business, spend, and pay taxes on the remaining amounts. The poor earn money, pay taxes, and spend the rest. This is the biggest secret of the rich.
Step 10
The rich focus on business systems - they learn to create and use them. The poor concentrate on specialization, professionalism, and become hostages of narrow knowledge.
