I’ve been inspired by many who have come before me, paved the path, and achieved financial independence. Warren Buffet’s famous quote: “If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.” This quote reminds me of many lessons, including 1) we cannot live only to work, 2) money is a tool to help us live the life we want, and 3) we must have our money work for us, especially while we are sleeping. 

This also reminds me of the difference between wealth and being rich, as explained by Robert Kiyosaki, “Many people think that being rich and being wealthy are the same thing,” said rich dad. “But there is a difference between the two: The rich have lots of money, but the wealthy don’t worry about money.” Robert Kiyosaki also told me the true definition of an asset, something that makes you money. 

I’ve learned many other lessons and continue to learn, and I hope you’ll come along with me to learn for yourself.
