FOREX stands for
Foreign Exchange Market
This 5+ Trillion Dollar a Day Industry has kept the Uber Rich Wealthy!
Have you ever heard of Forex before finding this post? Probably not, and if you have it was probably from someone who mentioned it and curiosity has led you here. The reality is 9 out of 10 individuals have never heard of Forex and there is a reason why. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (aka SEC) has regulations that do not allow people of certain income levels to participate in the same investments the rich invest in, because we do need leverage when dealing with large amounts of cash flow otherwise we can lose all we own and we need protection from bad investments. HOWEVER, those same regulations keep us, the public, out of the best investments. In other words only the accredited or sophisticated investors are allowed to participate.
In his book, “The Guide To Investing”, Robert Kiyosaki, italicised the requirements of participating in an investment for accredited and sophisticated investors only. It read,
“An accredited investor is generally accepted to be someone who:
-
has a net worth of $1 million or more, or
-
has had an annual income of $200,000 or more in each of the most recent years (or $300,000 jointly with a spouse) and who has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year.
Robert Kiyosaki said in his book, “The Guide To Investing”
“The path to becoming a sophisticated investor is about finding the path that’s right for you to acquire the three E’s: education, experience, and excess cash.” -Robert Kiyosaki
So how does the everyday person acquire excess cash when most of our generations are living paycheck to paycheck? Great question, you need to learn how to make your money work for you, not work for money. Forex is the level playing field that enables and empowers every day, hard-working individuals the opportunity to grow their experience and financial portfolio to be able to operate in the same space as the rich and wealthy.
