Part 10/12:
A core theme across these books is the necessity of mindset. Conventional society often promotes a "net zero" thinking—earning and spending equally, which keeps many broke despite high incomes. Wealthy individuals, on the other hand, adopt an "invest first" mentality: they prioritize paying themselves, investing in assets, and living below their means.
For example, I started investing early—buying a condo that paid me passive income each month. My initial passive income was modest, but as I accumulated more properties, the cash flow grew exponentially, freeing me from traditional employment. The journey to financial independence starts with shifting the mindset from spending to investing.
