I’m often surprised when a seemingly simple quote can really nail it. Like this one from “Rich Dad Poor Dad” author Robert Kiyosaki,
“It's not how much money you make, but how much money you keep, how hard it works for you, and how many generations you keep it for.”
As an investor, the words “how hard it works for you” are critical. With interest rates at historic lows now for almost 10 years, bank accounts and traditional bonds are not providing the income many expected during retirement.
