I was listening to a Kiyosaki CD today while taking a break from programming. I find his stuff mostly too simplistic, but I was liking it today for some reason, when I heard Kiyosaki make a really funny and interesting point.
He says that some few people can get rich by scrimping and saving. . . . → Read More: Cheapskate Wealth

As I mentioned in my previous post Getting help=more time to make money, it is time for my family to get a maid.
Both my wife and I spend far too much time taking care of the routine cleaning tasks generated by a household of two adults, three children, two dogs and two cats. . . . → Read More: Maids ahoy!

This weekend I finished reading "The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich" by Timothy Ferriss. I just got it last week, and I read it straight through, putting aside all other books for a couple days.
