Cashflow Quadrant
Cash Flow Quadrant Overview
I just released a course on the cash flow quadrant from Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" book, which helped me with changing my mindset and path to wealth creation. We discussed the four quadrants: E (Employee), S (Self-employed), B (Business owner), and I (Investor), and described how cash flows from one quadrant to another.
Income Protection and Insurance Basics
We discussed that employees earn money through their jobs, which pay them only when they work, and the amount they earn varies based on their skills, training, and education. We highlighted that if an employee becomes injured and can no longer perform their job, they may not receive high pay, emphasizing the importance of insurance to protect their income during recovery periods. It was noted that while insurance can help employees live reasonably well while injured, it is limited in scope.
Understanding Employee, Self-Employment, and Business Ownership
We explored the differences between employees, self-employed individuals, and business owners, using examples like plumbers to illustrate each category. We highlighted that self-employed individuals can deduct business expenses, but their income depends on their own efforts, unlike employees who receive wages and have source deductions. We also described a business owner as someone who owns a system that works for them, contrasting with self-employment, where the work depends on the individual's effort.
Transitioning to Passive Income
We discussed the difference between active and passive income, emphasizing the importance of transitioning from being an employee to becoming a business owner or investor. The various ways to generate passive income, such as owning stocks, real estate, or even becoming a lender were discussed. We also highlighted the benefits of financial freedom, where passive income exceeds active income, allowing individuals to live comfortably without the need to work.
Watch the course and please post your feedback here so that I can improve it or address any of your questions.
