Retire young retire rich

Those of you who know me know that I believe it’s important for us, as a vegan community, to increase our personal wealth so we can use it to make positive changes in the world. I don’t mean for us to be capitalistic, greedy, sell outs; but think what you could do for the vegan movement if you had millions of dollars to donate. Think of the vegan businesses you could support. Think of being able to donate vegan foods to victims of disasters instead of sending them just your blood. I have been reading Kiyosaki’s “Rich Dad” series for several years and are well on our way to achieving the kind of personal wealth that can make a real difference in the vegan movement. So it was with great interest that I received the fifth book in the series, Retire Young, Retire Rich. Not just a reiteration of the stories and advice from the first few books, this book reveals more of Kiyosaki’s personal story. He talks about changing one’s context to be ready to be wealthy. He talks about the mistakes he made and how to avoid them. And best of all, he spells out the best ways to make passive income (the key to retiring young and rich.)If you agree with my reasoning, read on.
