Jay-z’s net worth and Robert Kiyosaki's networth: Who to listen to

 Robert Kiyosaki’s net worth and Jay-z’s net worth

“What a teacher is, is more important than what he teaches”

                                                                                                     Karl Menninger.

I am always pained when I discover that the one who feels he knows it all, the one who feels he is master of it, the one who feels he has the monopoly to personal development drastically lags behind compared to those who pretend they don’t know at all or rather, those who do not even try to teach any principles.

Please, pardon my example. I was amazed when I discovered. So I will have to share my thoughts and would love to hear your thoughts and read your comments.

Robert Kiyosaki’s net worth

I love Robert Kiyosaki, I love all his books and his practical ideas but I was amazed to find out that with all these knowledge and principles, his net worth is below a hundred million dollars. I am not judging him. 

Over 80 million dollars is a whole lot of fortune but based on the information he provides in his books, I feel he could do better.

Jay-z’s net worth

Jay-z’s net worth on the other hand increases my respect for him daily. Is Jay-z really worth $900,000,000 USD (nine hundred million dollars)?

Damn! He is three times richer than Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes, you heard that correctly- Jay z is three times richer than Arnold Schwarzenegger.

This simply means that this man stage named Jay-z knows a whole lot of things my dearly beloved Robert Kiyosaki doesn’t know. Or maybe he needs lectures from Jay-z so he could add to his principles and may be write more books or update his books.  

Dear reader, Jigga aka Jay-z is more than 11 times richer than Robert Kiyosaki. This has made me dump Kiyosaki’s Rich dad Poor dad books and has made me embrace Jay-z’s lyrics. I discovered that everything Jay-z says in his songs are true. Go figure.

When his signee, J cole said that sometimes, he brags like Ov, Jay-z replied him saying “No, I brag different” This is the blunt truth.

Jigga aka Jay-z says he hasn’t seen the back of his eye lids since 1996. This means that he is really up to something and of course he is because he further said that he has been speeding through life since. Little wonder why Jay-z’s net worth keeps increasing and never going down.

Is Robert Kiyosaki really speeding through life with his investments in real estate? Or he needs to increase his financial gear and meet up with his words.

Jigga is a hard worker. Jigga still works like he is poor. This man did not allow this wealth get into his head. I am sure if he had allowed wealth get to him, he would have crashed.

I feel sometimes Kiyosaki brags which really made me look up his networth. I use to think he was worth hundreds of millions with the position he plays as a financial authority who knows the exact things to do to become filthy rich and does these things. Or maybe he really doesn’t like too much money so has humbled his investments.

It is apparent that Jay-z is really a smart man and gets the better part of every deal he is involved in. I once read that his first album with R Kelly- Reasonable doubt was bargained 60-40. That is, Jay-z would go with the 60% profit while R Kelly goes with 40% profit. I laughed when I read this. But the deal ended 50-50 any way which is still a good bargain.

Jay-z is a master of money management. Fans might think he squanders money on bourgeoisie toys but I bet, he knows what he is doing. 

This is a man who says he’s clear on why he is here. Are you? I mean is Robert Kiyosaki really clear on his real estate investment principles or he needs some clarity from Jay-z?

These are my thoughts about Jay-z’s net worth and Robert Kiyosaki’s net worth. Now, I would like to hear your thoughts. 

4 WAYS OF BECOMING VERY RICH

4 WAYS OF BECOMING VERY RICH

Hello there. Have you ever wondered about what it really takes to become very rich? Have you tried different principles and you are not yet very rich?

Sure, you have read a whole lot of books on personal finance but you are back to the rat race. May be you have even given up on these self-development books on how to get very rich.

My friend, worry no more. You are reading the right post. This post will open your eyes to your mistakes and would teach you the exact secret you need to know about getting very rich.

Everyone wants to get very rich but the sad truth is that everyone will not get very rich. Most won’t get rich, some will get rich and just a few will get very rich.

Why you won’t be rich?

Beware of the doubters, the onlookers, the critics, the talkers and never doers, the castigators, the lazy people. 

Simply, I call them Thomas or God’s younger brother for them to know why a principle or idea will not work.

It is said that FedEx was seen to be an average idea by Frederick Wallace’s lecturer who scored the idea a “C”.  So unfortunate for this so called God’s younger brother, the monopolistic judge over business ideas who knows what and what ideas would succeed and not.

These are people you should beware of. The dream killers who will go at anything to drag you down and belittle your dreams.

If you listen to them, I bet you, you won’t be rich. Had Frederick Wallace “Fred” Smith listened to his lecturer, we wouldn’t have known FedEx. He might have never even been rich.

Why you will get rich

It is simple. If you are focused. You are clear on your purpose and you put the right work in, you will be rich. Those who are clear on their purpose and those who put in the required effort to achieve their goals will be rich. 

They do not listen to dream killers. They do not even give dream killers chance to utter negative vibes that will kill their dream. Rather, they are focus and they maintain singleness of purpose.

How to become very rich

This has brought us to the core and essence of the article. How do I become very rich? Hmmm, it’s hard all the day. Nothing good comes easy. 

You must be prepared to be hard on yourself and never to believe there is any shortcut to becoming very rich.

You might have thought to yourself- I know a man who earns 3 times more than another man. But this big earner his not as financially successful as the small earner.

The amount you earn does not determine your financial success. You can earn $250,000 a year and have nothing to show for it. 

While a man who earns $25,000 a year could be far financially successful than you are.

My friend, to become very rich is not easy and it is not a day job. It requires persistence, pain, sticking to your plan for a long time.

Rome was not built in a day you know. Imagine if Rome was built in a day, I bet it, you will not value Rome.

So without wasting much of your time let’s go straight to the only way to become very rich.

My friend, are you sure you want to become very rich? Then you need to do these things:

1.       Save half of all your income

I know you have heard this a lot but guy, it is not easy at all. By saving half of all your income, you have to do away with a whole lot of things. Your life will drastically change. You might lose weight but sure, it is going to worth it at the long run.

2.      

 Stick to saving half of all your income

Oh boy, you have to be very hard on yourself. You must be very disciplined my guy. Saving half of all your income is not easy but if you want to become very rich, you must be disciplined. Never break it once no matter what happens except the situation is life threatening.

3.      

 Think of a viable venture and invest in

It is not enough to save half of all you earn. While saving half of what you earn, it is important you think of a business to invest the stacked up cheese you have saved over the month or years.

 Please, do not invest in a venture you know nothing about. Please, do your research thoroughly lest you throw your hard earned money away.

4.     

  Save half of all your profit

My friend, saving half of all your income is the golden principle. You keep saving half of all your profit until you can re-invest in expanding the venture and the cycle goes on.

This is simply how to get very rich. It is simple to type and read but in reality, only a few can go through the rigor of sticking to these principles. And these are the very few that are or will be very rich. 

Be true to these steps and I can assure you in 10 years, you will be very rich. We all want to be very rich but are we willing to pay the price?

Muhammadu Buhari the Gerentocrat: Reason behind Inflation

This article solely seeks to explain the reason for inflation in Nigeria since 2015.
This write up was inspired by an argument that ensued between me and my brother. I am a graduate of International Relations and my brother on the other hand is an Economist.

Without boring you, let me get straight to the point. Our argument was based on why Nigeria is suffering from inflation. Why would a sachet of pure water be N 10? He based his arguments on certain economic theories which I must confess, I cannot remember cause he wasn't communicating to me based on his economic jargon.

Well, me on the other hand argued from the realist point of view and I was amazed to see my economist brother hush because he saw sense in my argument.

 I told him the inflation is artificial. It is artificially mechanized by the Federal government. And how?
I told him that since Nigeria is plagued with a mono-cultural economy having oil as the major source of generating FOREX, it is very easy to stage inflation.

It is very simple. Increase the pump price of oil and the price of every other commodity will sky rocket since the production and importation of these commodities are based on oil price. SHIKENAH!

If Goodluck Jonathan could reduce the pump price of petrol from N97 to N87 overnight, it is apparent that the Federal government can at will cause inflation and deflation.

Don't forget, when Buhari assumed office in 2015, he deducted 50 kobo from the pump price making it N86.50. This move supports my argument that the Federal government can either make life conducive or hell for Nigerian citizens.

Before we could say Jack Robinson, Pa Buhari almost doubled the pump price by adding a whole N58.50. To what end you may ask. Of course, to stage an artificial inflation.

I do not care the explanations behind this unkind act in a country where crude oil flows like milk and honey, yet, the citizens are suffering.

All I can say is that the new FGN that is— APC is amassing wealth for 2019 elections.

Buhari or Buhari 2019! It's gonna be a do or die for the Gerentocrat.

The Financial Penitentiary

I doubt if you have been there. A place more or less like purgatory. I bet you, you won't like to go down there. But you must one day after unrepentantly breaking the codes of finance.

You must be there to learn the very hard way. The way that reveals you to you and makes you reflect on your bad financial habits.

You must be there before given another chance to thrive so as not to mis-use this opportunity because it might be your last.

The universe sends those she truly loves down there so that they could have first hand lessons on never-again-squander-money.

"What is the financial Penintentiary?" You may still be wondering. My dear, it is that ugly state one finds self after promising and promising over and over again to be wise with funds but never true to those promises.

You get a big buck today but yesterday, you were broke and had compelling ideas on what you could do and what you would do if you get funds. But as soon as the money comes, you forget all about the ideas you had while you were broke.

We keep making these mistakes over and over gain. But a time comes when the universe will turn her back on you, when your prayers will stink and it will seem as though your whole world is crashing down.

Those you had lavished your money with won't help you and you will start labelling them as ingrates. This is the time you will realize— "NObody really cares" and "nobody can help you" except you help yourself.

You will be locked up in this financial correctional state for longer than you expect. Before, you get broke for days before intervention but now, you must be broke for months or even years.

The N1000 note that used to be chicken change to you will now seem as a million naira. This time, sense will fall on you. You will learn to fast by force.

You will master hunger and get used to "soaking garri" You won't even care if there is sugar or not. Oga! you go dey drink am dey go just to survive.

Ma, the financial penintentiary no be beans o, it's not child's play. The universe during this time makes sure you learn lessons through hunger, neglect, dejection and maintain a contrite spirit. You will be broken and forcefully humbled so that next time, you will have sense when it comes to spending.

I bet you, if you have been here before, and out, you won't want to come back  and if you have never been there, in the voice of 2face "You don't wanna go down there"
