There is a disturbing trend where fewer and fewer Americans CAN AFFORD to retire. Why? Answer: due to inflation (rising costs!) Now WHAT would help anyone with rising costs? Answer: MORE CASH FLOW! 

Time is our most valuable asset in life. Most of us go to a job WHERE we trade time for money. We do that until me have saved/invested enough where we have so much weekly/monthly cash flow, that we can afford to walk away from our jobs(we retire). 

Every investment that anyone considers should not be viewed in the same way that we view Apple stock. We know that Apple is GROWTH stock. So therefore, the ONLY way we can lock in profit, is to SELL SOME SHARES, when the stock price goes up! So we ONLY have ONE way to make money (profit) with Apple stock. 

But what about dividend stocks/ETF's? We can buy/hold dividend assets that PAY us WITHOUT us having to sell shares! Guess what you can do with cash flow? Answer: Anything you want. That's what makes cash flow SO VALUABLE! 

We discuss "NAV erosion" and "share price ersosion" and how we don't really need to concern ourselves that the share price has decreased, as long the asset continues to PAY US a dividend on a schedule (weekly/monthly). I don't care if I "lose money" ON PAPER, as in IF I were to sell shares. I don't plan on selling shares! So WHY would I care if the share price fluctuates UP or DOWN? 

We don't have to wait for permission to become wealthy. Start today. Start messy. Start right where you are today. Stop telling yourself that you aren't ready or that you need to do more research. Your goal should be to learn. Your goal should NOT be "not fail." Failure is VALUABLE information that you can use when you try again! 

Wealthy people are focussed on buying/holding assets, that pay them cash flow. Poor people are focussed on buying/collecting things! Wealthy people think about MONEY differently from how poor people think about money. What is YOUR focus? 

I'm not a financial advisor. This podcast is for education/entertainment purposes only. You will need to do your own research and accept responsibility for the results of any money you choose to invest. I love using Schwab.com to buy/sell stocks/ETF's/closed end funds/options. Schwab has a very user friendly app/website and their customer service is excellent. I can easily get to speak to a human being whenever I have questions.
