Planning ahead and making a study out of life is vital in my opinion. Without it you will risk ending up like the majority of people (which is not always a pleasant situation).

As you've said that to retire early we need to look for other sources of income from our job but my view is that, in the current time one has to ask, if I want to retire early, what'll be my plans? To just get more sleep or enjoy life (these days enjoying takes lots of money too like vacations etc), one also has to ask whether they've got more than enough money because you never know when you need it...you've got to be self-sufficient and plan yourself for next 10-20 years because our lives are getting longer and we're getting better access to health care now than ever so it's important to realize what one should do, yes switching your source of income is a great idea like opening up your own small business etc which'll keep the flow coming. What do you think Mikael? The book seems already out on Amazon now, I'll check it out.

The same applies when applying for a mortgage or investing your money. Don't come with a state of mind "I have no idea about money, I'll let the "experts" take care of my money". Educate yourself so you can take care of your own money! Tom Can’t agree more. The same applies when applying for a mortgage or investing your money.

Knowledge is the key to success. I never got to finishing Rich Dad, Poor Dad (I'm not a big fan of reading), but I did like the parts I did read. On the other hand, through experimenting over the years, I have come to learn that I seem to change my ways best when I experience things first hand. Reading doesn't seem to cut it for me.

I'll bet a small fortune that 99.9999% of the people that have read the first 2 books are still not changing much (if anything) in how they think about money and business and unless you actually DO I believe that you don't really KNOW. Now some will argue that they didn't change because they didn't agree with him but if that is so then I don't get why they spend the extra time to read more of his books :) For me personally it is a change of the way I've learned to think and that is not something that will change over night and even though it might be slightly annoying to read the same things over and over I have decided to welcome it as a reminder of what it is that I am trying to learn and do.

It reminds me of the Warren Buffet saying that "Wall Street is the only place that people drive to in a Rolls Royce to get investing advice from someone taking the subway to work" ;) One thing that I would have to give your banker is that at least he was wise enough to ask for advice from someone that knew more than he did.

When I was working in Thailand, the investment fund manager of my bank was asking me for investment advices and opportunities! Now, if you consider this for a second, since I'm the one telling and teaching the bank what to invest in, why would I ever want to have those people manage my money for me? I will add another type of person you should not listen to either, it's all the people with who you share your dreams and they say that you can't do it! Avoid those like plague! .-= Nicolas Prudhon@SEO Help´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.nicolasprudhon.com/seo-mastery/internal-links-structure" rel="nofollow">Day 16: 21DSM – Internal Links Structure</a> =-.
