I am the Rich Dad Company Letter


We started another Rich Dad's ritual at our weekly Tuesdays 7:30am Round Table Meeting! We and our Rich Dad's Partner take turns reading the "I Am The Rich Dad Company" letter. See below:

I am the Rich Dad Company. Welcome to my world. A world of possibilities, a world of learning, a world of understanding. A take charge world. Through me, people of all walks of life, from around the globe have a shot t their dreams. See, I am not just a company, I am an awakener. I am a teacher. I am a community builder, along with an empowerer that has changed lives, and is resolute to keep changing lives for decades to come. I won’t stop. I am the Rich Dad Company and my mission on this earth is to elevate the financial well-being of humanity.

Is my task daunting? Hell, yes. Am I afraid? Never. Because the Rich dad Company thrives on leaps of faith. These leaps are the fires that ignite me and the catalysts of change. And with change comes growth. I believe following the status Quo is what got so many people into the mess they are in. Its going to take unwavering, fearless actions and words to awaken the hearts and minds of people who unknowingly have been following the blind, with the hope and belief that they have been following the enlightened.

I know otherwise. I’ve lived through the lies and saw the future with my own eyes. I am the Rich Dad Company and I don’t believe hope gets anyone anywhere. Why hope when you can learn, understand, take action, achieve results and get stronger? I am not a helper. I am a teacher, a tough teacher that some wont be able to handle. I don’t mind mince words, I rock most boats, I profess action and I demand hard work today for freedom and happiness tomorrow. But I also simplify the path and keep it fun, entertaining, experiential and unforgettable. That’s what good teachers do.

I know some people wont step up. They are simply too lazy, too scared, too comfortable, or are basking in the lull of false security to take charge of their lives. Some will come around. And when they do, I’ll be there with lots of entry points: Books they can read. Games they can play. Videos they can watch. Seminars they can attend. Coaches they can hire, just to name a few. I have many doors, and every one of them is open to the willing, no matter their standing in life. Taking control all starts with a dream.

Like those whom I teach, I am learning and growing, too. [I recognize that finding true happiness means expanding beyond a mission of financial well-being to a mission of complete well-being: in health and wellness, spiritual awakening, philanthropy, business building and purpose]. In essence, a Rich Life. And that is my next transformation. Because if we are not growing, then we are dying. Those who have transformed their lies through me, have tremendous stories to tell. They are stories of st rength, optimism, power, spirit and winning. These people are going beyond the basics of the Rich Dad principles. They are emerging into The Rich Life, and so am I.
