How are you Programmed?
We hear people saying "Investing is Risky", "The stock market is Risky", "Real estate is Risky", "I will never become wealthy", "The property boom is over", "Developers are the only people to make money out of property".
We have all been programmed to get a good education and get a good job. Security is a key word drilled in to us, as is investing in a pension scheme, then retiring on less money than you had before, working hard all your life making somebody else wealthy.
The majority of the Western World follows this pattern of becoming employees and consumers. Some of them earn a lot of money, and consume even more - they are considered successful. But maybe they are one mistake or one health scare or one downsizing programme away from being broke?
When a large corporation announces it is downsizing, its share price sometimes goes up!
Just Over Broke
We believe in this day and age that the above pattern is "Risky" not "Secure". Job stands for "just over broke". You will rarely become wealthy working for someone else.
"What about highly paid executives, aren't they rich?". But they represent the echelon of employees who may work ten times harder than anyone else, with jobs that are often more stressful and less secure than anyone else's.
