I am currently writing lots of book summaries, so I do not know if this really is a quote from the author of the book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" or not, but I do like the essence of the summary or the saying, no matter who wrote it. Why is that?

If you want financial growth, you need to move away from working for your money, and instead make your money work for you. This can be done through investments that make your money move, even when you are asleep. Of course, that is the ultimate goal, but to get there, you need to take risks, and few people are willing to do that. We have all heard of people taking risks and losing it all, but we often forget that the rich people we see around us are mostly people who have taken risks and succeeded.
The goal should be to get financial freedom, to have your money work for you, so that you don't have to work. Of course, watching out for your investments is still working, but it is a different kind of work. So, I suggest you read this quote once again, and think about it for a couple of minutes.
"You can go to college, graduate with a summa cum laude, get a white-collar job, and never have financial growth."
