The Perfect Business

Recently I had the opportunity to view a video by Robert Kiyosaki call "The Perfect Business".  You may have heard of Robert Kiyosaki; I refer to him as the rich dad poor dad guy. In this 11 minute video he discusses the cash flow quadrant and what each one of the quadrants mean. 

On the left side he wrote poor dad and on the right side he wrote rich dad.  On the left upper quadrant he wrote an E which stands for Employee and the lower left quadrant he wrote S which stands for self Employed.  I can identify with both of these quadrants because at one time I was an employee believing that if I can just stay here at my stable job life would be good.  Then I eased into self employment as I started my hobby turned business. I realized especially in 2007 when I don't work the business it doesn't make money for me.  So where does that leave me?

I aspired to be on the right side of the quadrant which on the upper right quadrant is B which stands for business builders who build their business by the efforts of others and the lower right quadrant is I which stands for investor who makes passive income by investing.

Robert Kiyosaki recommends that if you want to be a business builder to you may want to consider a network marketing company.  Why? Because they have the tools in place to coach you to building your business.  You can start the business while you are an employee and with the training you will receive from the company you can build your business into something you can later leave your children.  They will teach you how to sell and you will learn the skills necessary to be a successful business builder over time.  Now that is key.  If the network marketing company tries to convince you that you will have over night success....run.   It takes time to build a team and with consistant work you can build a company that will work for you and not you for it.  That is what happens with most network marketing companies is that they tell you that you can make mega money overnight and you may if you have the right contacts but for most individuals it takes time if your persistant.

I say all this to encourage someone to take control of your destiny and future.  Consider how this world operates and functions.  Learn how to have your money work for you and not you work for your money.  It could change your life for the good.
