Are you a Prisoner to Money?


What they're not teaching us in school is making us a prisoner to money!

Is our our school system in our country the reason for our economic depression? Ok, it might not be our school system, but maybe it's our schools philosophy. Our school system in the U.S. is still teaching people to be employees in an economy when our job market is decreasing everyday. We need to start teaching our children to be entrepreneurs not employees, creating jobs, not looking for jobs! So you could say that our schools are feeding the fire... the unemployment fire that is! So if our schools aren't teaching us how to have a financial education then where do you suppose we learn it? That's a question millions of people are starting to ask! And unfortunately I don't think there's an easy answer out there.

One of the main problems at hand is to many people have bought into the lie! "Get an education and a safe secure job." While this used to be true, now it's just an old out dated way of thinking, one that leaves you a prisoner to money. Along with the fact that America has become lazy and complacent! Stuck in a world of Xbox, Playstations, Wii's and Plasma TV's and if that isn't enough throw in sunday football, American Idol, and Fox News. We are bogged down with media desensitization and complacency. So while we stand by focused on our favorite TV show, other parts of the world (China and India just to name a few) are working around the clock taking our market share.

This is exactly why the Rich keep getting Richer! They have the financial education and experience to profit when economic times are good and bad. So where does that leave the poor and the middle class? Well for the most part it leaves them scratching their heads asking what happened and the middle class are left with with an every shrinking segment of our population. Now I know there are many articles on this subject but my main focus that I want to relay is taking your future into your own hands and not leaving it up to someone else!

So how can I get a better Financial Education? 

Take the first step and invest in yourself!

Ok, if you have found yourself to be a prisoner to money, stuck in your job with high consumer debt, car payments and mortgages, don't worry there is away out! IT's not going to be a quick answer or easy answer, but it will provide a light at the end of the tunnel and with that a better life!

Remember if you want change in your life then YOU have to change! I like to call this the road of personal development. This is probably the most important factor on your road to improving your financial IQ and eventually to your financial freedom! Read books (lots of books), get a teacher, coach or mentor, go to live seminars, seek out local successful people and ask them to sit down with you (you'd be surprised how willing they will be), associate yourself with like minded forward thinking individuals, look for and join a network marketingcompany! Network Marketing companies fit all of the above into one package and you get to earn while you learn! Now not all Network Marketing companies are the same, so do your do diligence and find one you can get behind. Not just the product but the corporate management and the distributor base. Make sure they have a good training system in place and make sure that have your best intrust in heart! And don't be in a hurry this is going to be a process that takes time! So enjoy the journey and good luck!
