My first book I read on the subject of finance was Robert Kiyosaki's book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". And let it seem very simple now, and the truths spoken in it are obvious. But then this book just shocked me. I learned what assets are and what liabilities are, for example, a car can be both an asset and a liability, it all depends on whether you provide taxi services on it.
But all knowledge does not make sense if there is no deposit in order to make a lot of money out of it. And the problem is that a permanent job does not bring a lot of income, the salary from it barely provides for the family. And it does not work out to put it on deposit. That's why most are poor. They can't even lift their heads above the water, forcing themselves to spend all their energy and time on the family.
