An investor explains why cash flow matters: it's the fastest way to lifestyle freedom. Robert Kiyosaki's books shaped his thinking early on, teaching him to focus on monthly cash flow as the real measure of wealth.
So what got you into the whole investing mindset? Really, more than anything, I just wanted to be in a place where I was doing life on my terms. So one of the best ways for that, in my view of life, is to find the cash flow to cover the lifestyle that I have. And so I'm a huge proponent of cash flow investing. A lot of the greatest mentors to me over the years were actually authors, books, doing things that, you know, really resonated with me. So many of my mentors have no clue that they're even my mentors, like Robert Kiyosaki. He had a profound impact on me in my early years as a business professional. He simplified so much of it to the point of making cash flow really relevant and really important and on a monthly basis. So that really is what grabbed my attention.
