Well have you ever wondered when you are driving and your dream car pass by... and what are first thing cross your mind? Well answer yourself honestly before reading ahead ;)

Majority will think that the owner of the car must be an outstanding person, they must be very hardworking, they must be great in what they are doing, they must be very smart, they must be the “lucky” ones and so on….

Or even worst… some might think, this crazy b*stard must be out of his mind, “I rather buy a house instead of that car”, “the petrol $ must be killing them”, “won’t they scared being robbed driving such a nice car” and so on…

Notice these 2 groups of people behave very differently. The first will have an aspect of “envy/respect” and another as “criticism/discourage”. But these groups of people shared a common thing i.e. they have “limiting believes”.

Well we can’t blame them, especially those who are pretty “season” in employment, corporate world, their so call dream (if they have one) that once “I’m possible” had become “Impossible”. These 2 words look the same but have very different meaning! Also these people are in an environment that is “Subject to Negative Influences”. Often you will heard them complaining, blaming, cursing, backstabbing, you name it, they got it. They just love being the role of “victim”.

Moving forward, I’m sure that you do cross someone that you know who was once label “lazy” in school and have poor grades but now they seems to be more successful financially. Have you ever wonder WHY? The only reason that I found out is because they understand how the game of money is played. Each game has its sets of rules so does money!

Now, looking to our education system, do we have a subject on money? I’m not sure about you, as far as I recall there were none in mine. Since young we’re are taught to study hard, score as much flying colors as you can and this will secure you a “high pay” job or even better start your own business. “Stay away from investment as they are risky”, “You will get burned in stocks” and many more. Well anything wrong with this? From my perspective, we are train to be a perfectionist to serve the “Master” whom is good in playing the money game.

In reality, we are merely human, and human do make mistakes but the problem is we are trained to hates mistake/failure. Guess what most people will do? They will stop making mistake by do “nothing”. Reason is simple, they have this phobia of making mistakes. It feels goods not to make mistake right? :p. Let me give you a metaphor, look at an infant when he/she on the stage learning to walk. Have you ever wondered why an infant will learn to walk? Why not just crawl for the rest of their lives? It’s already in our natural instinct, from each fall/mistake/failure we grew stronger and stronger. But sadly, most people are still crawling financially when they can actually walk and even run!

You see none of us are ever taught how to make money, how to invest money or how to manage our financial and yet money is the most important subject in our lives especially when your “FAMO” scholarship ends. (FAther and MOther :p). I know some “stubborn” will say “Not everything is about money”, but don’t you agree that you can do lots of thing IF you had the money ;). Some might take years to figure it out, or maybe some will never figure it out. My best advice is to go out and network with the “right” people. Your Networth = Your Network. These people often have a different way of thinking and have totally different strategies. They could be your drop out ex-classmate, financial adviser, your rich neighbor and etc.

Cheers!!!
