1. The Difference Between Assets & Liabilities
Many people assume that know what an asset is.
For example: you probably think your house is an asset but it
is not. Actually there are basically two definitions for an asset. A definition
used by some accountants, which requires a lot of understanding complex
accounting terms. Then uses this definition produces financial statements of
individuals or companies that reflect something better than it actually is.
Instead, the rich use another definition much more practical and simple.
"Assets
are things that put money in your pocket and
Liabilities are things that take
money out of your pocket."
