Networking and working for profits instead of wages

Have you ever thought about making more money? Are you happy in your current employment? Robert Kiyosaki the author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad” says the next waves of millionaires are going to be networkers. I read an article recently which claimed that 20% of all millionaires in the US got there by network marketing. Most people hate the term network marketing and will shy away from this phenomenon as soon as you mention it. The reason that most people hate the idea, is simple, it's too unconventional for most people to grasp. Plus most people are addicted to a paycheck, and don’t want to put in the time to build a residual income.

I recently was reading Robert Allen's latest book Multiple Streams of Income where he shared how he worked solid for 2 full years without a paycheck. He said during those 2 years the kids at McDonalds were making more money than him. Later on it paid off as he re-cooped millions in royalties, but he did give up 2 years of pay to do so.

It's not rocket science, but the rich do work differently than the poor. If you haven't read "Rich Dad Poor Dad", I highly encourage you to do so; it will open your eyes to a whole new way of thinking. It basically states that profits are better than wages. Unless you come from wealth, you have start thinking outside the box, otherwise you may end up like 95% of the 65 year olds today - Dead or broke. Whoever came up with this idea of working for somebody else and getting a wage?
