Priya Verma's Key Ideas from Rich Dad's Guide to Investing
by Robert T. Kiyosaki

If a person says, “Money is hard to get,” it will probably be hard to get. If a person says, “Oh, I’ll never be rich,” or “It’s really hard to get rich,” it will probably be true for that person. If a person says, “The only way to get rich is to work hard,” then that person will probably work hard. If the person says, “If I had a lot of money, I would put it in the bank because I wouldn’t know what to do with it,” then it will probably happen just that way.

When it comes to money and investing, people have three fundamental reasons or choices for investing-to be:

1. Secure,
2. Comfortable, or
3. Rich

All three choices are important. The difference in one's life occurs when the choices are prioritised.

Most people dream of becoming rich, but it is not their first choice. Their first choice when it comes to money decisions is security. Second is comfort and third is to be rich. That is why most people make job security, their highest priority. After they have a secure job or profession, then they focus on comfort. The last choice for most people is to be rich.

One problem is not enough money. The other problem is too much money. Which type of money problem do you want?

• The more security you need, the more scarcity is in your life.
• The more competitive you are the more scarcity, there is in your life. That’s why people compete for jobs and promotions at work and compete for grades in school.
• People are creative cooperative and have a good financial and business skills often have lives of increasing financial abundance.
