Once upon a time, there was a story that made people chuckle and scratch their heads ?. It happened in a park ? in an American city, where a man in his 40s sat on a bench, looking pretty down in the dumps ?.

He had been in business for a while, but things hadn't gone his way. He was feeling pretty broke, and although he had a little money saved, he was afraid to take any risks. He was stuck in a rut ? and just wandering around, feeling lost ?‍♂️.

Then, he heard a voice nearby. He looked up and saw a well-dressed man standing next to him. The man asked, "Why are you so glum? You look like you've got a weight on your shoulders ?️‍♂️".

The businessman sighed and said, "I've tried so many things, but nothing has worked. I just keep thinking about my failures and how much I've lost ?".

"Have you ever heard of John D. Rockefeller? You know, the American billionaire and philanthropist? ?" the man asked.

"Of course I've heard of him! Who in America hasn't? I know his name and reputation, but I've never actually met him," the businessman replied.

"Well, I'm John D. Rockefeller," the man said with a smile. "I like to walk around parks sometimes and talk to people who seem down. I enjoy helping them out. Tell me what your dreams are, and I'll give you enough money to make them happen!"

The businessman was stunned. He was in disbelief! He started to tell the man his whole story, about his struggles and his hopes.

The man listened patiently, then took out a briefcase from his hand and opened it. He grabbed a checkbook and asked the businessman for his name. He wrote out a check for $1 million! ? "Take this money and start the business of your dreams! Don't worry if you need some time to make plans. The money will be waiting for you!" He winked and vanished into thin air ?!

The businessman was overwhelmed with excitement! He rushed home and decided he'd put the check in his safe and use his savings to start a business. He had a good idea for a business, so he took a deep breath and went for it! He worked hard and within a year, he was making a lot of money!  ?

He was so happy with his success that he decided to cash the check. He went to the bank and they told him it was fake! ? He was shocked! He ran back to the park to try to find the man who gave him the check, but he was nowhere to be found. 

But then he saw the man talking to someone else, giving them the same check and making the same promises! The businessman was astonished! He realized the man was a con artist ? who had been tricking people. The con artist was eventually caught by some people who recognized him.

Even though the check was fake, the businessman felt lucky. He was afraid to take risks before, but the fake check gave him the confidence he needed to start his own business.  He realized that sometimes, it's not about the money; it's about believing in yourself and taking action! ?

? God Bless You! ?

Wisdom for a Better Tomorrow! ?

10 Lessons from
-
"Rich Dad's Retire Young Retire Rich" ?
-
by Robert T. Kiyosaki:
-
How To Get Rich And Stay Rich.
-
1. Attain Financial Freedom by commencing early investments that allow your money to work for you over time, as emphasized by Kiyosaki. Starting early ensures more money is actively working on your behalf.

1. Embrace diversification of income streams; Kiyosaki advocates cultivating various passive income sources, like rentals, investments, and businesses, as opposed to relying solely on one revenue channel.

2. Seek guidance from mentors and successful individuals without hesitation. Kiyosaki's endorsement of mentorship resonates with his previous work "Rich Dad Poor Dad," emphasizing the importance of learning money management from those with experience.

3. Cultivate a rich mindset. Counter the habit of considering oneself average, as this mindset can limit your potential. Kiyosaki underscores the significance of thinking differently to achieve extraordinary results.

4. Exploit legal tax strategies to your advantage. Wealthy individuals utilize tax loopholes for minimizing tax payments, employing tailored asset structures and tax shelters.

5. Refrain from acquiring liabilities. One of the common errors is making ill-advised purchases, such as cars, which can undermine financial stability. Kiyosaki cautions against such choices.

6. Continuously invest in education. The book highlights the value of lifelong learning and personal growth through investing time and money in your ongoing education.

7. Progress towards financial freedom isn't solely linked to a high income. Kiyosaki underscores that a person earning less and spending even less is in a better financial position than someone with higher earnings and expenses surpassing their income.

8. Valuable experiences in life often come without a price tag.

9. Exercise frugality regardless of your financial status. Kiyosaki's father exemplifies that having money doesn't necessitate extravagant spending, advocating prudent money management even after achieving early retirement and financial freedom.
