Welcome to the mini -story for True Wealth.
2
In this one, I am going to ask questions directly from the article.
3
So, not a news story.
4
I'm going to ask questions about the article.
5
All right, let's start.
6
The definition of wealth is the number of days you can survive without physically working
7
or anyone else in your household working and still maintain your standard of living.
8
Is the definition of wealth the number of days you can survive without working?
9
Yes, the definition of wealth is the number of days you can survive without working.
10
Is the definition of wealth the number of hours you can survive without working?
11

12
The definition of wealth is the number of days you can survive without working.
13
is the definition of poverty the number of days you can survive without working.
14
No, no, no, no, not poverty.
15
Not the definition of poverty, the definition of wealth.
16
The definition of wealth is the number of days you can survive without working.
17
What is the definition of wealth?
18
The definition of wealth is the number of days you can survive without working.
19
Can anyone else in your household work?
20
No, no, no, no, no. Also, without anyone else in your household working either.
21
So, without you working, or without anyone in your household working,
22
or without either of you working.
23
Well, without either of you working.
24
The definition is the number of days you can survive without you working and also without anyone in your household working.
25
Is your roommate part of your household?
26
No, no, no, no. Roommates are not part of your household.
27
Is your mother part of your household?
28
Ah, maybe, maybe.
29
Is your mother part of your household if she lives with you?
30
Yes, that's right.
31
Your mother is part of your household if she lives with you.
32
Is your roommate part of your household if he or she lives with you?
33
Well, no, no, no, no. Roommates are not part of your household.
34
Yes, they live with you, but no, they are not part of your household.
35
only family that also lives with you is part of your household.
36
So, if your mom does not live with you, is she part of your household?
37
No, she's not.
38
if she does not live with you then she is not part of your household
39
if she does live with you then she is part of your household
40
so for example the definition of wealth if your monthly expenses are a thousand dollars and you have $3 ,000 in savings.
41
How many months?
42
of wealth do you have three right you have three months of wealth if your expenses are one thousand dollars per month
43
and you have three thousand well then you have three months of wealth
44
So, what is wealth measured in time?
45
Wealth is measured in time.
46
Is wealth measured in dollars or is wealth measured in time?
47
Wealth is measured in time.
48
Wealth is not measured in dollars.
49
So what is measured in time?
50
Wealth.
51
Wealth is measured in time, not dollars.
52
Ultimately, it's not how much money you make that matters that's important,
53
but how much money and how long that money works for you.
54
Every day, I meet many people who make a lot of money.
55
But all their money goes out to expenses and liabilities.
56
How many people does Robert Kiyosaki meet?
57
Well, many, many, many.
58
I don't know how many.
59
Maybe 500.
60
100. Does he meet people who have a lot of money or who have a little money?
61
He meets people who have a lot of money.
62
He meets many people who have a lot of money, but they have a problem.
63
What is their problem?
64
All their money goes out to expenses and liabilities.
65
Where does their money go out to?
66
Expenses and liabilities.
67
Does their money come from assets?
68
A lot of assets?
69
Or does their money go out to a lot of expenses and liabilities?
70
Well, their money goes out.
71
Their money goes out to a lot of expenses and liabilities.
72
When they make more money, what do they do?
73
Well, they go shopping, right?
74
These people, when they make a little more money, they go shopping.
75
They buy a bigger house or a new car,
76
which results, which causes long -term debt and more hard work.
77
Nothing is left to invest in assets.
78
How much is left to invest in assets?
79
Well, nothing.
80
Nothing is left to invest in assets.
81
How much is left to invest in assets?

They buy things that lose money.
90
They buy houses with a loan.
91
They borrow money.
92
They borrow money for a car.

They go shopping.
94
They buy liabilities.

97
So regardless of how much money people make, ultimately, finally, they should put some into investments.
98
Investing is the process of money making more money.
99
The idea that your money works so that you don't have to work.
100
So, should people invest in assets or should people invest in liabilities?
101
They should invest in assets.
102
Assets make money every month or lose money every month?

Robert Kiyosaki.
110
Robert Kiyosaki wrote that.
111
Now me.
112
I like the idea of measuring wealth in time, not dollars.
113
So do I like to measure wealth with time or with dollars?
114
Well, I also like to measure wealth with time.
115
The important point is not how much money you have,
116
but how much you enjoy your life. So what's important?
117
How much you enjoy your life.
118
How much you enjoy your life is most important.

They spend more than they earn.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
