They love taking risks. A lot of people, most of us are afraid of risks. But when wealthy people hear a word risk, they get excited. Hello, Ken Honda here. I'm so happy to share with you five things. I was shocked when I interviewed wealthy people. Number one is that I found that wealthy people always talk about money. That is so different from regular people. Wealthy people tend to talk a lot about money and business. So that is immediately I notice that their main concern and their interest is around money and business. Number two is they love calculation. When they see an opportunity, they calculate if it's a good return or not. And they calculate certain things with numbers. They are playing with numbers. Number three is they think in long term. A lot of people think by weeks, months and maybe a year. But wealthy people tend to think in terms of years, 10 years and 20 years. My mentor Wahe said when I come back from next life, that means he's thinking after his death. He is thinking of the future of the planet. So I think there are certain things that I should do before I die for my children, grandchildren, and also when or if I come back next time, I want the earth to be nice and happy. So wealthy people think in long term. Number four is they love taking risks. A lot of people, most of us, afraid of risks. But when wealthy people hear a word risk, they get excited and they see how can they calculate their risks and still do it anyway. Number five is they respect relationships. When they find out that they have to lose some money to save your relationships or you may sacrifice financially to honor the code of business, they love to do that because they think credibility and also relationships are the number one asset they should protect. So those five things that wealthy people are thinking all the time and probably regular people don't. So think of those five things and one day you'll find yourself a wealthy lifestyle. Bye.
