Lazy Man and Money

Rich Dad, Poor Dad

by 3 Comments

I’ve been reading about Rich Dad, Poor Dad for some time and finally took the plunge and used a gift certificate to pick it up. I have to admit that I really enjoyed about the first 120 pages, but the last 60 or so weren’t quite as good.

I’m sure I should have took away more than just this, but what I did take away was a lesson that I already knew, but had forgotten. That lesson was to collect assets that will earn a passive income – money that I can count on each month to subsidize and eventually replace my salary.

This blog is about a man, a lazy man, and his quest to not only retire early, but to retire rich enough to live a comfortable lifestyle. I’m a software engineer, so don’t expect journistic quality writing or professional quality money ideas. I’m from the Boston area (just a few miles west) and my motivation for this blog comes in large part from Boston Gal’s Open Wallet. I’m also influenced by Adventures in Money Making who is doing what I haven’t had the guts to do yet and leverage himself big in real estate.

You can expect Lazy Man and Money to be about 85% money, 5% technology (hey, I’m a software guy), 2% health, 5% random soapboxing, and 3% “zany”-ness. Maybe we’ll up that zany as time goes on.
