Economy Comfort, or business class?


Little Jimmy and Bob are children that have taken interest in the art of making money.
It is common for children to come to an epiphany that money runs the world. It is also common for these newly enlightened children to embark on all sorts of crazy "business ventures" to try and make money. After a while though, they give up and go back to living the life of normal children, the life of relying on one's parents for pocket money, and of going with the flow.  Bob and Jimmy's case is Different from the quintessential "money runs the world" epiphany that children get. The dynamic duo have made it their life goal to make money after having been inspired by their rich Dad. Bob and Jimmy will fail, but they will not stop. This duo will persist, they are hungry to learn from rich dad what they did wrong.

Perseverance is a characteristic that is essential for any large scale achievement. The problem with the middle class is that they do not like to take risks, they want to take the comfortable route, but this route will take them no further than economy comfort (class on a flight). If you've ever achieved anything extraordinary you will know that hard work exercise, and most importantly: failure were part of the process. The difference between a middle class man and the business class is the way in which they deal with failure.

One can say that this is absurd, that the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor. This is not true however. A middle class man can get rich. In fact somebody gets added to the wealthy class on a regular basis. The only difference between them and their peers is that they are hungry.  It is true that it is hard to move to a higher class. This is because mentalities are handed down. For example: the middle class raises its kids with a middle class mentality and the wealthy raise their kids with the mentality of the wealthy. If you are looking for a rich dad to teach you, pick up this book and your well on your way.
