The Most Important Financial Lessons You Need Right Now - Robert Kiyosaki

In this episode, host Robert Kiyosaki talks with guest George Gammon. They discuss the current state of the world economy, as predicted by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), asserting it's about to encounter the biggest financial headwinds since WWII, and the most important financial lessons you need right now.
They dive into the widening gap between the rich and the poor, emphasizing the importance of financial education to help bridge this gap. They suggest that individuals with poor financial knowledge often have poor teachers or come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The pair also consider potential solutions to reduce economic inequality, criticizing central planning and politicians and warning against the assumption that taxation of the rich will solve the crisis. They cite specific examples where they have profited from investing in commodities like oil and gold and caution against the unreliability of the stock market and the threat of censorship and centralization.
The message is clear: In these rapidly changing economic times, being proactive, hanging around with smart people and continuous learning are non-negotiable.

This is not a financial advice and I never give financial advice: DONT LEAVE DURING THE BEAR. If you don’t want to invest…learn. If you don’t want to learn…build. If you don’t want to build observe. DO SOMETHING…other than leave. There is so much opportunity here. Take advantage!

Just because there are opportunities in the market doesn’t mean you should go in blindly. To understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional

[@maryHenokNft]

I've been in touch with a financial advisor ever since I started my business. Knowing today's culture The challenge is knowing when to purchase or sell when investing in trending stocks, which is pretty simple. On my portfolio, which has grown over $900k in a little over a year, my adviser chooses entry and exit orders.

I don’t like the idea if your not a millionaire your poor. I got a home, clothes on my back and a refrigerator filed with food. Good food at that. I have everything I need to live comfortable. Also I have good health from working at my job for all those years. I have some gold and silver I don’t need to own a gold or silver mine. There’s nothing wrong with that not for me. He says ask the questions and I started asking myself was I happy and content, did I do the right thing. The answer was emphatically yes. I worked, paid taxes, retired then graduated from college with a degree in IT. I freelance in my spare time now. I’m not a millionaire however I’m doing just fine. Thank God He gave me common sense to realise entrepreneurship was not for me. Very good advice to “question things”

Find quality stocks that have long term potential, and ride with those stocks. I have found it takes someone who is very familiar with the market to make such good picks.

[@sheltonPston]

I agree. Based on personal experience working with an investment advisor, I currently have $1M in a well-diversified portfolio that has experienced exponential growth. It's not only about having money to invest in stocks, but you also need to be knowledgeable, persistent, and have strong hands to back it up.

Do you believe every word of an developed world citizen. Anyone can easily articulate past events in his success story. In USA price speculation is insane so the corrections too therefore you can have opportunity to get rich if you have patience and availability of debt.

And one more thing he is working as a social media influencer and promoting Gold, artwork and even mattresses so don't get deceived with no work phrases used by influencer.

I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Carol Vivian Constable turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.

[@Ryanosaurr]

2:45 We should devote resources to free market capitalism (equality of merit) which grows by incentivizing work. We should not devote resources to equality of outcome, where the government splits the rewards of the market, but not the work. This disincentivizes more work and incentivizes tax minimization, because the money saved in taxes is greater than money earned in work. Our wealth is measured in our share of the rewards of work, the medium of which is money. Shrink the amount of work, shrink the total pie, everyone gets a smaller piece and are less wealthy. There is less work rewards for the same population. 13:00 Over regulation increases cost to work, decreasing work done, decreasing rewards from work done, decreasing wealth to go around. The work done should prioritize the demand existing, to do work without demand is also very inefficient. China did a bunch of work (real estate) that no one was demanding, and did not get much wealthier (in real terms).

Guys, owning quality stocks and Bonds that pay dividends is not a fools game, just saying.

@robert your last several videos have had a point where they cut out for 30ish seconds. This one does it at 7:02 and comes back at 7:26. I think your cameras might be switching and the one it's supposed to switch to isn't getting the signal or something. But it generally happens once per video anymore. I don't know if you're aware of this or not. Maybe it's an editing glitch? Idk.

[@Paullookman]

My wife and I live off of our 401K. We don't work. I recommend highly to everyone to build your 401K or Roth IRA's as an alternate revenue stream in retirement to your Social Security. An observation on 401K's is when it gets over 300K it starts to accelerate. When you get over 500K it can really accelerate as the stock market grows
