¡Dinero! Para algunos un mal necesario, para otros representa la felicidad, una parte no le da el valor que representa en la vida y para otra parte de la raza humana, el dinero lo es todo.
En la sociedad en la que vivimos, el dinero representa un medidor del éxito que una persona tiene en el mundo, no obstante, quien lo posee en abundancia no necesariamente es feliz.
En la búsqueda de mi libertad financiera (aún no soy libre, pero estoy más cerca que al principio) he leído muchísimos artículos relacionados con el dinero; He leído montones de libros de educación financiera y crecimiento personal (en mi opinión, van de la mano) llevándome a tomar decisiones para lograr conquistar el Everest económico que la gran mayoría persigue en la vida.
Ser feliz y solvente económicamente, es el sueño del 98% de la población, ya que el 2% restante,,, ya es solvente financieramente y un parte de ellos, trabaja en forjar su felicidad, pero este punto, es harina de otro costal, así que no hablaré mucho de eso.
Money! For some a necessary evil, for others it represents happiness, a part does not give it the value it represents in life and for another part of the human race, money is everything.
In the society in which we live, money represents a measure of the success that a person has in the world, however, whoever has it in abundance is not necessarily happy.
In the search for my financial freedom (I am not free yet, but I am closer than at the beginning) I have read many articles related to money; I have read lots of books on financial education and personal growth (in my opinion, they go hand in hand) leading me to make decisions to conquer the economic Everest that the vast majority pursue in life.
Being happy and financially solvent is the dream of 98% of the population since the remaining 2% is already financially solvent and a part of them works to forge their happiness, but this point is another matter. So I won't talk much about it.
«Un viaje de mil millas comienza con un primer paso» Lao-Tse
La mayoría de las personas quieren que las cosas sucedan a la velocidad de la luz; Posiblemente piensen que el cuento de Aladino y la Lámpara Maravillosa puede ocurrirle a ellos en cualquier momento, y su primer deseo al genio de la lámpara sería: ¡Hazme millonario!, sin ver la realidad que en esta historia subyace.
¿Quieres ser millonario? No creo que encuentre a alguien que diga que no, a menos que le tenga pánico al dinero, no obstante, para llegar a ser obscenamente rico, es necesario conocer la fórmula que han empleado esas personas que ya lo son. Y... ¿Cómo puedo saber esa fórmula si no tengo amigos ricos que me enseñen y la expliquen?, podrías preguntarme justo ahora. ¿No lo acabas de pensar? Pues la respuesta es sencilla. Muchos de ellos han escrito sus memorias en libros que los puedes hallar en librerías o tirados en el suelo sobre un mantel en la acera y a precios irrisorios.
El secreto, es que no hay secretos.
Muchos autores han escrito de forma metódica y sistemática los pasos a seguir, o mejor dicho, las reglas o principios universales que han regido la obtención, multiplicación y conservación del dinero en el mundo, sin importar su estado económico, sexo o raza cuando comenzaron. «Al que cree, todo le es posible», dijo Jesús y esta es la actitud que toda persona debe poseer antes de emprender el proyecto de convertirse en una persona adinerada; Lo segundo, son reglas básicas que, al aplicarlas constantemente al pie de la letra, traerá como resultado indefectible el éxito.
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a first step" Lao-Tzu
Most people want things to happen at the speed of light; Possibly they think that the story of Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp could happen to them at any moment, and their first wish to the genie of the lamp would be: Make me a millionaire!, without seeing the reality that lies behind this story.
Do you want to be a millionaire? I don't think you'll find anyone who would say no, unless you're scared of money, however, in order to become obscenely rich, you need to know the formula used by those already rich. And... How can I know that formula if I don't have rich friends to teach me and explain it? You could ask me right now. Didn't you just think of it? Well, the answer is simple. Many of them have written their memoirs in books that you can find in bookstores or lying on the ground on a tablecloth on the sidewalk and at ridiculous prices.
The secret is that there are no secrets.
Many authors have methodically and systematically written the steps to follow, or rather, the universal rules or principles that have governed the obtaining, multiplication, and conservation of money in the world, regardless of their economic status, sex, or race when they started. "To him who believes, all things are possible," said Jesus and this is the attitude that every person should possess before embarking on the project of becoming a wealthy person; The second, are basic rules that, when constantly applied to the letter, will bring success as an unfailing result.
Uno de los libros que me ayudó a entender cuáles son los principios o reglas que han regido la economía en el mundo es y sigue siendo El Hombre más Rico de Babilonia, por George S Clason quien explica de manera sencilla a través de una historia basada en la antigua civilización babilónica, cómo un hombre muy rico explicó a sus estudiantes cómo aprendió y aplicó a su vida esas reglas para convertirlo en la persona más rica del imperio babilónico. Si lo lees, sé que amarás este libro.
La introducción se me hizo un poco larga, pero igual hablaremos de la primera regla que toda persona debe aplicar para tener los bolsillos llenos de dinero, y esta es:
Decide que quieres poseer dinero
La primera regla a aplicar es esta: Tienes que comprometerte a que, sin importar lo que suceda, vas a comenzar a guardar una parte de lo que te ganas. El autor lo escribe de esta manera: «Págate a ti primero» En palabras sencillas, esto no es más que ahorrar al menos una décima parte de lo que ganas.
Cuando he explicado esto a otras personas de mi entorno me dicen: ¿Cómo ahorraré un 10% de lo que gano si el 100% no me alcanza? ¡Y esta es una pregunta muy buena! Cuando yo comencé en este proyecto (he cometido muchísimos errores) solo ahorraba el 3% de mis ingresos, haciendo este camino lento y tortuoso, porque no veía crecer mis ahorros. Fue entonces cuando decidí que ahorraría el 10%. ¿Cómo lo hice? Cuando recibía mi salario, lo primero que hacía era apartar el 10% y lo guardaba, y con el 90% restante, resolvía todo lo demás. Permítanme decirles que, cuando comencé a hacer esto, no me faltó más que cuando conservaba el 100%.
Entonces, la primera regla, y creo que es la más importante, es: Guarda una parte (10%) de todos tus ingresos... sin excepción.
En una próxima entrega, hablaremos más de este tema.
One of the books that helped me understand what are the principles or rules that have governed the economy in the world is and continues to be The Richest Man in Babylon, by [George S Clason](https://es.wikipedia.org /wiki/George_Samuel_Clason) who explains in a simple way through a story based on the ancient Babylonian civilization, how a very rich man explained to his students how he learned and applied those rules to his life to become the richest person in the Babylonian empire. If you read it, I know you will love this book.
The introduction was a bit long for me, but we will still talk about the first rule that every person must apply to have pockets full of money, and this is:
Decide that you want to own money
The first rule to apply is this: You have to commit that, no matter what happens, you are going to start saving a part of what you earn. The author writes it this way: “Pay yourself first” In simple words, this is nothing more than saving at least a tenth of what you earn.
When I have explained this to other people around me, they tell me: How will I save 10% of what I earn if 100% is not enough for me? And this is a very good question! When I started this project (I have made many mistakes) I only saved 3% of my income, following this slow and tortuous path, because I did not see my savings grow. That's when I decided that I would save 10%. As I did? When I received my salary, the first thing I did was set aside 10% and save it, and with the remaining 90%, I solved everything else. Let me tell you when I started doing this, I didn't lack more than when I kept 100%.
So, the first rule, and I think it's the most important, is: Save a part (10%) of all your income... without exception.
In a future installment, we will talk more about this topic.

It does not matter what religion you profess; The important thing is to do what is necessary to become better human beings every day and honor our Creator. Oneray

Thank you so much for the support.
Every Monday to students here in my country is always a necessary evil. Getting ready to face new discipline and most especially students who did not do their home work during the weekend always pray Monday should never come.
When I saw you mentioned the richest man in Babylon I smiled because for me that's my number book one money and finances follow by a book written by one of the best author in my country who title the book "the school of money" is a good one too.
I tried late 2020 invest in cryptocurrency to get my financial freedom but I was got burnt the hard way that till now a lot of things haven't gotten sharp because of the bear that happened
Entering the world of cryptocurrencies without proper training and keeping in mind that money can be lost at any time, often results in undesirable results. You learn the hard way many times :)
What is the name of that author from your country? I would like to see this book in pdf
By Dr Olumide Emmanuel
I can't find this book on pdf :(
