The World Is Awash With Money

 Every day $1.4 trillion criss-cross the globe


looking for a home
 That is $1,400,000,000,000 !!!
 There is a ton of money waiting for excellent
opportunities
 If a country, a corporation or an individual knows
how to take care of money, money will continue
to flow to it
The Debt Trap
 The Bank: “Your house is an asset”
 But, an asset on whose balance sheet? Theirs of course!
 An ASSET puts money in your pocket
 A LIABILITY takes money out of your pocket
 The name of the game of capitalism is: “Who is indebted to
whom?”
 The more people you are indebted to, the poorer you are.
The more people you have indebted to you, the wealthier
you are.
 The average American gets a credit card immediately after
school and will be in debt until death
 We are all indebted to someone else. The problem occurs
when the debt gets out of balance.
Be the Bank, not the Banker

 “Be careful of money’s addictive power. Once you get


used to receiving it, that addiction keeps you attached to
the way you got it”
 Most people struggle financially because they spend their
lives using opinions rather than facts when making
financial decisions
 Expenses always rise to meet income.
 It is not about how much money you make, but how
much you keep and how long that money works for
you
Discipline Gets You Out Of the Debt
Trap
 Of your income, remember, the first 10% is yours to keep
 That is, keep it aside and don’t touch it
 With the remainder pay your normal expenses
 You will quickly be forced to cut some expenses, but will get
used to it
 With the extra money do the following:
 Decide to run all your expenses on one credit card
 Never spend more on the card than what you can pay in that month
 Pay the minimum payment every month plus pay your 10% into that
single credit card each month
 Keep paying until the card is paid off
 Then start the process with the next card and then the next debt
 Most people can be debt-free within 5-7 years if they stay
disciplined
