Rich Dad, Poor Dad, Smart Dad, Stupid Dad
by golbguru on April 20, 2007

Let’s play a sarcastic devil’s advocate for a minute and view the world from the perspectives of four different dads. I will try to keep this short and simple.

Rich dad: Life is all about cash flow. Income producing things are assets and everything else is a liability. Accordingly, food, clothes, cars, homes, computers, TVs, kids, love, and non-earning spouses are liabilities. You should have a net worth of $10 million before you die, only then you will be wealthy. Get rich quick (?). All other dads are stupid.

Poor dad: Life is absolutely not about money. Spend as you like and live paycheck to paycheck. Never have a backup plan for financial disasters. Consumerism exists for the benefit of the universe. Never get rich. All other dads are stupid.

Smart dad: Life is about happiness. Do what you think you are good at. If you prefer to stay employed rather than own a business yourself, then stay employed. Look for ways (within your means) to increase your wealth, but don’t overly obsess yourself with money. Always spend less than what you earn. Get rich sensibly. Observe and learn from other dads.

Stupid dad: Life is all about money. Do everything and anything you can to earn more money. Leave your day job even if you are good at it, and start a business even if you suck at management skills. Net worth of $10 million is not enough, always try for more. Get rich quick. Rich dad is your friend, everyone else is stupid.

Any thoughts? What kind of dad you want to be?

Update: What if you are a mom? Would you have some additional (in addition to dad’s) advice for the kids when it comes to money? [thanks to Plonkee for this thought]
