![]() Learning to shift to the right side is like learning to ride a bicycle. We have been called a good boy or girl for getting good marks and not failing the exams. We have been conditioned to not make mistakes. Why it’s actually riskier to stay on the left side for the rest of your life. Why everyone must let go of their financial “securities” in pursuit of financial “freedom”. It’s just that one side clings to financial security, thereby making life miserable and difficult in the long run, while the other thrives to gain freedom and comfort in the long run.Īfter laying down the plain and harsh reality of these quadrants, Robert goes into explaining why one should opt to shift to the right side of the diagram. One can and should operate in multiple ones. The people on the left, pay to take risks, while the ones on the right are paid to take risks. A true definition of wealth is the number of days/years you can go on without working at all. To people on the Right, it’s not about the money that they make, but about the money, they get to keep. Their money works hard for them day and night to multiply itself. The I (investors) invest in successful systems. He pays himself first and then pays everyone second. A business is something that doesn’t require your physical presence in order to generate cash flow.Ī business owner pays the least amount of taxes. This system and the people of his system work hard for them regardless of their physical presence. The B (Businesspersons), happens to own a system. Make very low incomes (when compared to the right), and are enslaved to money. The people on the Left pay the highest taxes. ![]() They aim for perfection and because of this, they can’t work with a lot of people since they tend to think highly of themselves and cannot tolerate the mistakes anyone under them makes. These are the people who want to “do their own thing”. A lawyer, a heart surgeon, a web developer working as a freelancer fall under this category. An S (Specialist) is the person who wants to do his/her own thing. The Left: An E (Employee) is a part of a system. A lot of words really hit me hard, right in the gut.Īlmost shocking how accurate they were, yet I was blinded by society to believe otherwise without me knowing about it. This book did a great job at stripping down the four quadrants down to their bones and revealing what the person operating each one thought and felt. Although Robert does delve into some abstractions, under the hood, he really wants to hammer hard some really fundamental concepts that often seem to go against conventional wisdom. It’s simply a matter of knowing which quadrant to work in. This work will reveal why some people work less, earn more, pay less in taxes, and feel more financially secure than others. It reveals the strategies necessary for moving beyond just job security to greater financial security by generating wealth from four selective financial quadrants. The Cashflow Quadrant is the follow-up guide to finding the financial fast track that best works for you.
