Work for assets, not money

Shortly after I graduated high school, my uncle gave me a copy of Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki. I’ve been a fan of the Rich Dad books and other products ever since. The fundamental premise of most of their work is that financial education is largely missing in our society, and they seek to shore up this issue by providing a common-sense approach to complex topics (hopefully this sounds familiar to us as we communicate with patients!). One of my favorite lessons from the Rich Dad series is the importance of working for assets rather than money.
