Finer Finance Fridays #3 - Part III

Recap from the last two weeks...it is indeed VERY possible to build wealth, for yourself and future generations. One of the ways to do that is to reduce your spending, specifically don't spend more money than you have. In Part I of this series we focused on a few ways to reduce spending. In Part II, we focused on some of the benefits and rewards of reducing your spending. It Pays to Save, right!!! Now, let's talk about the flip side of that equation...how to make more money!
Increase your income!
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" said his Rich dad told him, “If you want to be rich, work for passive income.” Begin by understanding that there are different types of income. "Most people start their life out by making ordinary earned income as an employee. The path to building wealth then starts with understanding that there are other types of income and then converting your earned income into the other types of income as efficiently as possible."
Passive income = Passive income includes regular earnings from a source other than an employer or contractor. The IRS says passive income can come from just 2 sources: rental income or a business in which an individual does not actively participate.
