Recently, I reached over $100,000+ a month in September. So what does it feel like? Peace. Serenity. Calm. 15 years ago, I used to work at a supermarket for $20 an hour. Last month, I made well over $100,000. (closer to $300,000). I didn't work more hours. I didn't answer calls nonstop I didn't ​work in a corporate job 9-5 I simply solidify my systems.

I used to be the one who wanted to have a net worth of millions and then RETIRE. The problem with $10M or $20M or $1M net worth is what happens after you achieve it The traditional finance method teaches you that you can withdraw 4% safely putting it into bonds and mutual funds "without any thinking, strategy or risk" However, this also leads to a very high net worth goal which means you need to save and work till you're 65 or 70. The better approach is to focus on income ($100K a year, $10K a month or $20K a month) This puts control back into your life. You can improve your investing strategy to generate 3% a month with $300K ($10K a month) You can buy a e-commerce business with a few products You can buy ATMs in your local region You can do Airbnb rental When you focus on income, you have control, flexibility and you have a faster way to improve If you only focus on net worth, then reaching $10M - you would switch to a "safer" vehicle and retire. Then you will end up working a lot more than you need to.​ In other words, $10M net worth* 4% = $400K a year There are more creative ways to generate $400K a year without $10M.​ Cheers, Eric ----- Eric Seto Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) Founder of 5MinInvesting.com In October, my goal is to help 20 people without a financial background to master investing through Investing Accelerator.

In Robert Kiyosaki's book, we learned about the 4 roles in a capitalistic society Employee -> Self Employed -> Business owner -> Investor Most people believe that you should fit into one criterion (e.g. Employee) However​, I believe that we are all 4. Just like how a 9 to 5 employee would invest their own retirement portfolio. To maximize our earnings, we would need to be in all 4 roles at some point For example For a long time, I work in KPMG as an employee and also build my own business on the side (e.g. Self Employed) I then quit KPMG to work full time in a self-employed to scale my business Once I reach a high level of call volume, I have to call in help, which makes me the business owner, where I focus on designing systems to deliver results instead of doing the day-to-day work. ​Finally, I invest the remaining earnings as efficiently as I can with the highest return I can achieve (30% is a good target) As I am starting a new business (My new 100 people hedge fund in US), I will go back through the 4 roles where: 1. I am the portfolio manager and trader (employee) 2. I own the portfolio management business (self-employed) 3. I design systems for people to trade on my behalf (business owner) 4. The shares of my company appreciate (​investor) and we take it IPO in 7 years Cheers, Eric ----- Eric Seto Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) Founder of 5MinInvesting.com In October, my goal is to help 20 people without a financial background to master investing through Investing Accelerator.
