Smart Investments Advice from Robert Kiyosaki

Smart investors make something from nothing. Robert Kiyosaki once shared a great story. He said that smart investors don’t work for money. Instead, they know how to make money from nothing. They recognize opportunity and know how to use it to make money.

Robert Kiyosaki used to work in a small store. He was paid $0.30 per week. While working in the store, he noticed that the store owner cuts old comic book covers in half and return the rest to the distributor.

Invest smartly and grow your wealth.

He decided to make a request to the distributor if he could keep the old comics. The distributor agreed with a condition not to resell them. Robert would keep the business deal and came up with another way of making money. He would store hundreds of such free comic books and rent them. He made $0.10 a day. That way he was privileged to make $9.40 a week, which was way better than $0.30 a week that he gets from the store.

So, the aim of smart investments shouldn’t be being wealthy; rather, it should be about being an excellent opportunist and making a smart use of an opportunity.
