RICH DAD'S CASHFLOW QUADRANT (BY ROBERT KIYOSAKI)

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

The best books for escaping your 9-5, by Robert Kiyosaki: bit.ly/31lGZNF

[@novaknovakovic1585]

This was great, I've been looking for "financial-freedom" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ferapt Freedom Fanboy - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my m8 got great results with it.

[@ahaha8]

I read that Robert Kyosaki also escaped 9-5 by writing his books - but NOT before(as far as I saw, the biggest criticism is not about him being not a good businessman(for sure he is), but writing that book sharing his method how he became rich when he actually was not at that time!

[@bobcrane2720]

There was a news piece about a guy outsourcing his job, he sat around doing nothing and hired people on Fiverr type sites from overseas to do his job tasks; he was fired and caught (but he did succeed in getting other people's time as an employee.) He should have telecommuted, he could have been enjoying life and kept his job if he had done that as well.

[@valentinstoyanov304]

Robert Kiyosaki literally changed my life. I have read 21 books of the Rich Dad series (some of them written by Kiyosaki's partners) and I totally recommend all of them. R.K. doesn't focus just on the financial education but develops an overall life philosophy. By the way, his most recent book "Fake" can be considered something like a legacy. Essentially, it summarizes all main ideas of the author over the years. You should make a video about it too.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Thanks for the suggestion Valentin! I'll definitely consider covering "FAKE" one day too 👍

Don't forget OPR: (other people relationships like leveraging a big youtube channel's fan base and getting a shoutout from them), and Technology like software, apps, etc.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Good point! That wouldn't really count as OPT or OPM, but it could definitely be valuable to leverage. I think I will consider using OPR for marketing this channel in the near future ... 👍

[@MatthewLuna1]

o and another tip use robert kiyosaki 10/10/10 pay yourself rule every time you get paid right away take 30% of the top 10% is for giving ,10% is saving for a big investment opportunity and 10% is for investing also.

[@MatthewLuna1]

The Swedish Investor and btw a other tip invest for both cash flow and capital gains not just capital gains so you want say dividends and price appreciation.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

@@MatthewLuna1 You might see me present this in my next book review. It seems Robert Kiyosaki is not the only one who is suggesting such an allocation of resources ... 😀

So it seems like if we don't go into the quadrant "E" or "S", but go into "B" and "I", and it might not be recommended to invest in stocks but in real estate, so the recommendation is really to become landlords? (either small condo or house to begin with, and later on, rental properties with multiple units?)

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Rental properties could make for good investments in the I quadrant, but they are certainly not the only ones. Being a landlord is quite a lot of work, and it could belong to either the S, B or the I quadrant depending on the size of the business and the passivity of it.

[@tradways]

winterheat2 no, landlord is in the E. B and I are the real estate OWNERS who hire the landlord (E)

[@yufeng1707]

Hey, Swedish Investor, I have a question about the Cashflow Quadrant. Why does it have to be a "quadrant"? As you've mentioned, there's differences between the left side and right of the quadrant where it's trading time for money versus having money build passively. However, what's the difference between the top and bottom? Because as far as I can tell, there isn't any that Employees and Big Business Owners share, nor are there any that Small Business Owners and Investors share. In that sense, the whole quadrant thing feels kind of flimsy and would be better represented as a straight line of E S B I, wouldn't it? Where employees would strive to become small businesses to strive to become big businesses to strive to become investors? I've asked this question in a few places, but they never found a reason behind the top versus bottom, and I figured you, with your immense financial knowledge, would be able to answer this, thanks!

[@ronirickpacheco4335]

Why not ask Robert Kiyosaki himself? He's still alive til now and is actually giving seminars. You can ask him directly if ypu attend in one of his seminars.

[@thedreamville]

You’re missing the point. Quadrant or straight lines is not what make you money but what you do in each of those categories. Quadrant just means divided into 4 and no big deal. Focus on identifying which quadrant you belong to and how can you move to a better quadrant that would help you to achieve financial freedom.

[@latoriapowell2489]

Everyone isn't looking to transition from one quadrant to the next. Some people stay in one quadrant. Some people flow from one to another. Some flow through multiple quadrants throughout their lifetime. But it's not a sequence to follow because it's a choice to be in any quadrant. Just like it's a choice to NOT be in just one or a combination of.

[@theWebWizrd]

​@@thedreamvilleIt's most certainly you who missed the point. When designing a good conceptual framework, especially for education, it's quite crucial to have a good representation for it. The entire point of a quadrant is to break four options into two dimensions. For a good example of this in investing, see Ray Dalio's comcept of investments with regards to expectations for growth and inflation. That quadrant is qctually very meaningful and well thought out, and therefore useful. This though just seems very arbitrary and not thought through. Like OP observed there is only a commonality between left and right. Moreover, the whole conceptual framework just does not seem very accurate or informatove. Clearly some or a lot of people find it useful and that it helps them, so that is great, but I think it's clear the author is a great motivator, not a great thinker.

[@maalikserebryakov]

Its a very dumb and low IQ way of looking at work and money. Dont take the quadrant too seriously

[@silverstoric3450]

[@herbiqandnutrition]

[@KJ-pu8dw]

I have listened to 3 of Rich dad poor dad books. They are eye opening. However, I am still on the fence as to what is truly possible. Failing for some is not possible as logically one fail is financial ruin beyond recovery when you have zero safety net backing you.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

One thing that Kiyosaki advocates is to work at your regular job while starting your business on the side, and I like this idea very much. This is pretty much what I did myself, only I started it on the side while I was studying.

[@danahudson2533]

You are starting at the wrong step. Your first fail is making a safety net. Keep working at that. There is so much strength in small baby steps consistently over time

[@rahulnavalkar]

If everyone is in the either the B or I quadrant, who will be in the E & S quadrants who’s OPT and OPM you can use?

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Hehe, to me, personally, it would be preferable if more people chose to stay in the E & S quadrants instead. Less competition. Then again it would be quite hypocritical to read this book and state that one of the takeaways is that the B & I quadrant are horrible and that you should stay away from them.

[@alirezakhalilzadeh7257]

not everyone is smart enough to be among those 5% who are under B and I category. and the other 95% are working for these 5% :)

[@viswanathkreddy1632]

Very true. That's why every body is not required to shift to B/I quadrants.

[@T_WTX]

Great summary of the usable basic ideas. Therefore, I listened to part of the audiobook. To me, much of the book trying to flesh out these basic concepts is filled with pages after pages of overgeneralized platitutes with very, very little substance and, to top it all, confused definitions of assets and liabilities. I know what Kyosaki means, but why not teach the basic concepts precisely enough instead of going for dumbed down, unneccesarily confusing overgeneralized stuff? For example, when Kyosaki states that an apartment represents a liability, not an asset, not only does he confuse stocks with flows, but he also ignores opportunity costs. To me, reading all of this is for the most part a waste of time if you want a substantial understanding. The value of the book might be in wetting your appetite for learning about business and investing. At least, what I learned from this book is that I should never sink any money into a Kiyosaki seminar.

[@gowthamc1389]

Excellent

[@michaelgabrielcube233]

Starting a business is no joke though, especially if you wanna make a big one, cause a big business will also require a big vision, and also big action, but while investing focuses on big results to little to no effort, (that is after learning all of it of course which does take a lot of effort), as compounding does all the work If you have a vision, start a business, and if you don't, start investing, but its still alright cause there are indeed companies that you can start that focuses on investing, or as some might call it, trading, and some example of these companies are hedge funds, investment funds, investment firms, venture capital funds, equity funds, bond funds, investment management firms, and etc.

The original book ( i havent read any newer editions) doesnt say small business or big business. However, i think it fits nicely. My stepmother ran a local chain of 3 art stores for her boss. He never came to work just checked with her from time to time. I definitely would consider him as being in the B quadrant as he didnt have to run the business and could go away for a year, come back and still have a business He eventually cashed out, selling to a larger company

[@ahmedDesouky00]

The S (Self-employed) quadrant can be considered a small business like a dentist who owns a clinic. It's a business after all. But, it won't work if he is not working there at the time. On the other hand, owning a big clinic and hiring multiple doctors can be considered as a big business, since you don't have to be there and working to earn the money. That's the way I understood it.
