THIS IS WHY GOOD JOB AND SALARY WILL NOT GIVE YOU SUSTAINABLEFINANCIAL FREEDOM

Let me disclose from the outset that I am a student of Robert Kiyosaki, the author of
RICH DAD POOR DAD and his teachings about financial intelligence have liberated me
a great deal. I am convinced that search of a well-paying job with fancy titles should no-
longer be my priority. And if you are seriously in search of employment, this is what you
should know.

1. Our education system has exposed us to believe good grades and academic papers
   is our ticket to good and secure jobs which lead to good life. This is a mirage, if
   testimonies from your village is anything to go by.
2. At least 99% of students are not taught about financial intelligence in majority of
   Kenyan schools. They are talk business studies and in some instances
   entrepreneurship, by teachers, some of whom have never owned a business. 
3. Employment makes employers rich and deprives the employee the freedom everyone
   so desires. You rely so much on monthly paycheck to the extent if the salary delays by
   one week then you start experiencing stress disorders due to unfulfilled obligations –
   worse if they attract penalties like bank standing orders. Consequently, your net income
   will shrink, and this makes you even more vulnerable.
4. Employees are like dairy cows to the government. You pay more taxes than self-
   employed or entrepreneurs. It deprives one of the powers to make critical decisions. If
   you own a corporate then you gain the power to control the ladder in the corporation
   and also pay less taxes.
5. Some employers are very naughty. They will assign you not just a fancy title but also
   good working environment such that you forget yourself. The COBs and 24 hour
   unfettered access to you as an employee – that you can even work beyond 5 pm and
   even weekends – enslaves you to the job that you hardly work your brain to aid your
   self-development.
6. Employees on long term contracts are easy baits for bank loans and private lending
   companies. The truth is that majority are perennially repaying these loans to the extent
   this limits their freedom. What of the lucrative bank loan top ups especially for public
   servants!
7. As an employee plan to earn that salary only to the extent it will lead you to build your
   corporation. This way you limit your dependence on the employer and open doors for
   more exciting opportunities.
8. Owning a body corporate transfer the risk of paying more taxes to the government
   and also saves your assets from legal suits.
9. As an employee you should appreciate that great opportunities are not seen with your
   eyes. They are seen with your mind.
10. As you make your employer rich by attracting more funds through performance
    results, also spare time to develop yourself. Learn about the CASHFLOW Quadrant and
    just mind your own business.
