Investments- A poor man's enemy.

The phrase 'the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer' is a common phrase that we hear all the time. Politicians around the world are talking about it and trying to slove it but this problem is seemingly difficult to tackle. Let's just take a second and think really deeply why this problem is so complex. The number one reason for this is that the poor and the rich don't even speak the same language!

If you ask any rich man what are investments? The rich man will tell you that investments are their best 'friend' and you can spend the whole day and night talking about investments. You may be even invited to join them and their friends for dinner to talk about investments. You will learn a lot of tricks and tips about investments. The most important and valueble lesson that you will learn from the rich is that to invest is your best 'friend' for you to generate more wealth.

However, if you were to ask a poor man, the word investments will stir a different reaction altogether. Every poor man in the world will tell you that investment is their 'enemy'. They always relate investments to shares and stocks. They have very negative thoughts on shares and stocks because they believe that stocks and shares will make them a poorer person. They would rather take an extra job or blame others. The one person that they will love to blame is God! They will blame fate, blame God and rather lament that they are not meant to be rich and accept the fact that they are poor and that they can't be rich in their lifetime.

I believe that anyone can have their financial freedom day if they want it. Information on wealth-building is all over the world, be it in every corner of bookstore shelves or, the internet. .I don't believe in luck because i believe that you can control your own destiny!

Probably one of the reason, us, 'the poor', has such reactions to the word 'investments' are because we are ignorant.

Information maybe available anywhere and everywhere, but if I'm already on your page, it'll be good if I can learn more about it here..
