Why Rich are Getting Richer and Poor are getting Poorer

Why Rich are Getting Richer and Poor are getting Poorer

 

Since your childhood in Bollywood and general life, we have seen Rich is getting Richer and Poor getting Poorer.

Sometimes I used to think – why this is generally happens like this only. Then after some thinking I realized that Bollywood movie is the reflection of large population of society i.e. how they work, think and act in their personal and society.

Then this brought me to another thought it is also about the way people think and act on their thinking. Most of the people or I would say nearly 95%-98% population in this world don’t think in the direction of growth and those who think they don’t act accordingly.

Rich people and Poor People have two different extremes of population in our society. Only small percentage of population falls in rich or super rich category.

I have seen many people even after learning for many years, attaining college, professional degrees, don’t lead a luxury life. At prima facie seeing their life, cars, house– you might feel these people are rich, however on the contrary they were just meeting their needs and busy paying bills and debt.

Recently I was listening the audio book – Rich Dad and Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, which I found very interesting and worth sharing some of the points here. So whatever you are going to read here is mostly thoughts and ideas that pushed me to share this information with all of you in my own words.

Rich people are rich because of the way they think and act, on events and situations happening around them, while poor thought is the first thing to make Poor more poorer. This article doesn’t says who is right or who is wrong, it only talks about how Rich becomes richer and Poor becomes poorer.

Following comparison is the quick thought – which will provoke you also to change your thought too and may help you become rich and richer too:-

 

1.   Poor man mentality teaches their kids to learn in school and college to get ready for good job and work for a good company, while Rich man would look to teach their kids to build businesses and create job or learn to takeover business.

 

2.   Poor person will say if I have worked for 20-25 years for the organization, I deserve retirement fund and will look for lazy solutions, while Rich will look for financial independence and would not look for dependence options controlled by others, government.

 

3.   Poor man thinks rich people should pay more taxes to support the under privileges and Rich people think paying taxes is like a punishment to produce more and giving to those who don’t make good amount of effort

 

4.   Poor Man thinks I can’t become rich because I have lot of responsibilities, kids and family which eventually becomes his reality, Rich man thinks and acts for phrase- I should be rich because I need to meet their needs.

 

5.   Poor Man mentality says- Love for Money is the only reason for all problems, Rich Man believes Lack of Money is the only reason for all problems.

 

6.   Poor mentality person –explains why he can’t afford, this shows Lazy attitude, while Rich mentality person says and find answer to how I can afford and teaches to kids too.

 

7.   Poor Person may say- do not discuss money at the table of dinner or lunch, Rich person encourage discussing topics like money making life easier.

 

8. Do you think your house is the biggest asset and largest Investment – then you could be in trouble says rich mentality person who thinks it is a liability.

 

9.   Money is not important to poor people is what he will repeat, Rich person mentality says Money is Power.

 

10. Poor teaches how to earn money, Rich person tells how money should earn for you.

 

11. Rich mentality person will say – considering yourself as poor is eternal while broken is a temporary which means rich person says he will not be poor always.

 

What will make you Rich then?

 

Money is Powerful but more than this knowledge of making money is more powerful. This could also be called as look for Financial Intelligence and not only academic, or professional knowledge, because this will help you and your kids, family lead much comfortable life.

Most people only talk and don’t do anything about it. People who are rich doesn’t mean they never failed, they failed but they never give up. They working on making their mental health strong, because strong mind leads to strong bank balance.

Don’t get pushed by life, rather look to win then looking for reasons to loose, learn to take risk.

Going to school or college is important to learn specific skill, so that they can contribute to their livelihood and society. However, lot of people consider this as last step to earn money while very few think this first step.

Lesson # 1- Rich don’t work for money

When you are young or have time, don’t waste your time to serve and earning money only, invest your time to learn how people make money. Some employee working with an employer never ask how he is making money or managing risk in his business and employee etc. All they ask is how they can get appraisal, do their job only etc.

Everyone wants to change others, don’t want to change themselves which is far easier and quit jobs searching for better paying job or better manager thinking this will solve the problem.

Learn how to have money work for you and not to quit when you fail.

Don’t become slave to MONEY and your pay cycles. If you choose to work for money then life will become terrible and this is how most of the employee feels when they see their checks.

Government takes revenue from you in the form of taxes, and it is poor people who have to pay more than those who make more and they become richer.

 

Lesson # 2- Learn to control your desire and stay away from this trap

Don’t become slave of your desire, fear to loose money, because lot of people who are rich are more concerned and worried to maintain their status and they become part of this trap and work harder and harder to maintain their current status of life.

Learning to have ignorance also is important so that you don’t become part of trap created by emotions, fear of not able to pay bills, or desires, greed because with money increasing desire will also start increasing with a big speed leading to unwanted spending.

Choosing our thought is very important to become rich, instead getting driven by emotions is important rather than reacting to your fear, money or job loss.

Lesson # 3- Learn to work for your dream for free

When you work for a fixed monthly or weekly salary, you become slave of that frequency and amount you are expecting and you would like to work only for that amount. Waking up in the middle of night you have to pay bills, is terrified situation, don’t let money run your life.

Sometimes working for free dedicatedly will help you learn the business and work better and will open up your mind for all other different avenues of business too. Because then you will see opportunities what others can’t see.

Job is always a short term answer for long term problems discussed above.

Conclusion

Friends, there is a lot to learn on this topic, however to conclude for now-please understand to become rich the first thing you have to do is learn to have financial intelligence, change the way you think about money, you want to work for paycheck given every month or look for much bigger picture. Take steps to learn how money will work for you instead you working for money.

Mutual Fund is another popular type of investment option which is getting popular at very fast pace. Indian Mutual Fund industry as on 30 Jun 20 stands at Rs. 26 trillion i.e. 26 Lakhs crore which in comparison to US Mutual Fund industry is still small which stands at $ 2.2 trillion.

Generally Mutual Fund are subjected to market risk, which means the investment is done in the open market to make returns for the Mutual fund investor and Asset management company managing the mutual fund.

Direct Investment in equity shares of company

Direct investment in equity shares of company is also an option for lot of investor especially for those who are looking for big value at the end of investment term. Since this investment comes with high risk, thus expected returns can also vary significantly from extreme negatives to highly positive gains.

This investment is more suitable to those who are looking for very long term investment i.e. 10 to 15 years and have patience to ignore negative trends and sail through the ups and down of stock market. One should be able to wait for positive trends in market.

Here investor need to be very cautious and alert, either he should understand and invest in right stock or good/great companies or follow expert stock market advice.

To address this concern one should read and understand the stock more before investing or go with reliable consistent bluechip companies only.

However suggestion here is – investor should not park all the money in one basket i.e. one stock or direct shares, especially when you don’t understand stock market well, because at times investment value could show negative results also. However still lot of people make lot of returns in long run when they invest direct in strong companies.

                                         Real Estate

Real Estate is also very popular in India, especially with those who have large amount of money to invest in and remain invested for long run. This investment option is good for those looking for long term capital gain or some amount of recurring rental incomes.

Now a days – investor can earn returns by become owner of commercial property but not doing business there. In this concept a piece of large space in commercial building is sold to multiple investor, which later on given to big investor or commercial shop owner like Big Bazar, PVR, or a big corporate etc. who in return pays rent to builder and builder pays to owner as per the agreed terms or after taking his share. This concept is popularly known as Virtual Space.

Usual before Covid-19 the expected rate of return on residential property was approximately 4% p.a. and commercial property could fetch you 8% p.a. on amount invested. However after demonetization and RERA property regulation act enacted by Indian government, this sector has become less attractive. Now other than tangible feeling of having a property, capital gain is not that lucrative now. May be again in future it becomes more

However, in some place Land or luxury projects on outskirts are still lucrative option. 

Government Bonds

Government bonds are issued by central or state government and much safer option from safety perspective. It is like giving debt given to government or may be called a Debt Instrument.

Usually Government Issue these bonds to get more money in their hand when state or central government is running through crisis and looking to build better road network, bridges or other needs of public.

There is coupon or interest rate declared by government on these bonds, which is paid by government to public investing with them. The tenure of these bonds could be 5 to 10 years usually carrying 7% - 8%.

Since the returns could be fixed and floating therefore one should check the scheme of return and liquidity before investment.

Gold

Gold is the oldest mode of investment in India and popular among household. It is a yellow shining metal which usually goes up in the price when share market is falling and used against hedge. However now a days with GOLD ETF option made available in the market, which in turn gets invested in gold only- you need not to invest in physical gold.

With ETF option you can buy it electronically and no risk of damage or theft.

Fixed Deposit in Bank account

It is an investment instrument which gives you fixed amount of interest after term ends. But not a preferred mode of investment because of rising inflation rate and tax on return. This means your return becomes negative due to inflation and tax applied on return.

Invest only where you don’t want to take any risk and looking for safety of your capital / principal amount.

Senior Citizens’ Saving Scheme

SCSS investment instrument is sponsored by government of India for senior citizen aged 60 years or above only. The main objective of this scheme is to provide social and financial security to retirees in terms of ensuring a regular flow of income.

Though this scheme is applicable to individual retirees who are Indian citizen having an age of 60 and above but this has an exception also, like individuals having an age ranging from 55-60 taken voluntary retirement scheme or superannuation and they apply for SCSS within 1 month of gaining retirement benefits. Retired defence personnel can also avail this scheme anytime, subject to other requirements.

·         Minimum deposit required to start is Rs.1000

Best ideas for a startup, but is it idea or implementation or something else ?

"Think Big, Think Fast and Think Ahead, Ideas are no one's monopoly"

Startup Idea

Hi Friends, I also have a startup idea and it is no less than Flipkart or Byjus or Uber or Bookmyshow or any other multi-billion start up idea. But all ideas after few days and months of motivation goes into the dustbin.

With my experience and talking to people, lot of times, I have seen a group of friends or bunch of people having same thoughts and aspiration, who are discussing long hours on creating business idea that would change the way businesses are done in the country or world while making tons of money through their startup.

However, the unfortunate reality of these startups is they don’t survive for long, either due to lack of motivation, effort, money or they get death because of their own Karma like due to less preparations or eventually left in between.

Do you also have any great idea on Startups?

Usually ideas are available or already known to many people, what is not known is the implementation or knowledge of converting that idea into real successful business.

Every time when I also thought of converting an idea into reality, I thought of validating my business thought with others. But during this process I noticed that most of the people already knew at least little bit about the same or have heard similar idea otherwise also or some of them knew they required this idea from long time or they have already tried working something like this but couldn’t do it because of one or the other issue.

Then before you gets excited and act on such ideas- think again, is it an idea that matters more or implementation or idea with right implementation.

So, here this idea implementation may have lot of steps like understanding the dynamics of idea, feasibility, if feasible then resources required, planning, testing the idea at less cost, implementation of idea and most important learning to survive through the ups-and-down of startup journey.

Here, one should understand when it comes to Entrepreneurship, it is 99% of execution and only 1% of idea.

How to think a viable idea for startup?

It is not necessary only big idea or idea coming from big meeting rooms only becomes successful.

Idea should be something that solves a problem, and idea is big when it solves a bigger problem. I believe solving a bigger problem brings bigger returns to community and entrepreneur. However still some of the ideas fails even after having all the good features associated with them. For instance – Windows Phone, Good product, display, interface but still failed due to better ideas and innovative products available in market like Android, and IOS.

Check if you can develop a web portal where you can post details about your product or ideas or offerings are posted. You may also choose to use your personal networks or social media to gather inputs to know the possibilities of idea becoming successful. Just be sure your file for a patent, trademark or copyright before showing the world your idea!

Finally, obtaining advice from industry leaders or investors who have successful experience in bringing products and ideas to market. So to make Startup successful - you will need huge amount of passion to make it successful, along with right advice, implementation and fund to support your working capital and capex requirements.

Is Indian government supporting startup industry?

Since BJP led Modi government has come into the picture, government has taken many steps to support and back startup industry. The purpose is to boost new startups and encourage innovation among those who are keen getting into entrepreneurship.

This initiative was called Startup India which was first announced by Indian Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi while addressing the nation on 15 Aug 2015. This campaign got launched on 16 Jan 2016.

Purpose of this initiative:-

Government of India has set up an action plan that looks to address all aspects of the Startup. With this Action Plan the Government hopes to accelerate spreading of the Startup movement not only in the field of digital world, technology but also like to cover areas including agriculture, manufacturing, health care, society, education etc.

How to scale the startup?

Scaling up the business or startup is one of the most difficult task for any entrepreneur as it requires huge amount of right planning, effort and execution of such plans. To scale up the businesses it is highly important to standardize the processes across the company and outlet to bring uniformity in quality of products and services.

Before one go for scaling of startup, ensure you know the answers for the following:-

1.      Is your idea scalable? If Yes, then only go for scalability.

2.      Discuss your plan with investors, and mentors of industry in case you have any, and read the market availability for your product.

3.      Ensure you and your team have clear understanding on scaling the operations, because this is also true most of the businesses either burn their hands in this process or gaps in process makes it ineffective. See your plan is Fool-Proof.

4.      Check you have all the resources as may be required to scale

5.      Create a hype and use marketing team effectively even before you launch or reach larger audience.

6.      Standardized different SOPs, team trainings and materials, look for automation to avoid errors, create detailed flowcharts to understand and map risk and controls in processes.

7.      Being a startup you can’t afford to in-house the non-core and unessential services, simply outsource and focus on your core.

8.      Continuously follow and improve on your social media feedback or direct feedbacks.

9.      Make good team – offer share in equity or business instead of salaries.

Important note- scalability of business means you are trying to take a big step towards your big dream.
