The Rich Buy Assets First: How I Taught My Son to Buy a Car the Smart Way Here is a secret the rich

The Rich Buy Assets First: How I Taught My Son to Buy a Car the Smart Way Here is a secret the rich understand that most people never learn. Before you buy something that is a liability, buy an asset that will pay for it first. I taught this to my 16 year old son a few months ago. He wanted a car for his birthday, and the payment was going to run 300 to 400 dollars a month. He had 25,000 dollars saved up, and he had two options. Option one, pay cash for the car. No payment, but now the money is gone and the car itself is a liability that only loses value over time. Option two, finance the car for a few hundred dollars a month, then take that same 25,000 dollars and invest it into an asset instead, like a rental property that cash flows 300 to 500 dollars a month. That monthly cash flow now covers the car payment completely. Look at the difference. In option two he ends up owning a rental property that someone else is essentially paying off for him, and that same property is the thing covering his car payment every month. The asset pays for the liability instead of his own money paying for it directly. This is exactly how the wealthy think. They buy businesses, they build income producing assets, and they let those assets fund the things they want. Poor people buy liabilities outright. Rich people buy assets first and let the assets do the work.
