Did anyone try Rich Dad coaching?
I’ve never done Rich Dad coaching but I’m going to suggest you don’t want a coach. You want a mentor.Anyone these days can be a ‘coach’ and make reasonable suggestions on topics they really have no expertise in.A mentor is someone already successful in the endeavor you want to succeed in. They’ll guide you through everything step by step and fill your knowledge gaps with their own resources.Why would they help you? Because you’re going to do most of the work and split the profits with them 50/50. You’re going to become a new revenue stream for them.A mentor will only take on the most serious people whom they assess are likely to succeed. It’s a personal assessment. They won’t take you on for money. They don’t need money and they don’t need you. But successful people like to give back. And they especially like to make more money while giving back.
What is difference between poor education & rich education in India?
It is not equal for the rich and poor, the rich go to private (they are called public tho) schools, convents etc. The poor go to govt, run schooled, where the student-teacher ratio is pathetic. the poor kids in villages don't even have the required text books, the kids in these schools are passed every year, so the school can keep a good face. But when they face the boards, they fail repeatedly and then give up among the poorer sections, girls are kept home to baby-sit their siblings and hence don't go to school. The govt. has free-meal schemes to encourage attendance, the schools tell the parents to let the child study and not make him/her do chores during exam times, a lot of private girls' schools are funded by the govt. , so girls get a good English school for a very nominal fee.
What is your experience or opinion on Elite Legacy Education and their real estate training programs?
Let me start with $9k is insane. I’ve seen a lot of sites and startups that prey on people’s need to “jumpstart their career” or “get access to a high powered network of professionals”. And I’ve even paid for more than my fair share but I’m of the mindset now that you can’t pay others for deals. You have to earn and close them yourself. I’m sure they make you feel great and while you’re there the rest of your career looks like it will be a cakewalk but let me ask you this. Considering $9,000 is an average if not small commission on a home sale or listing (5% of $200,000 = $10,000) why if they have all the answers would they be wasting their time teaching others for $9k when they could be practicing what they preach and making way more for a lot less work? They’re not a charity they’re a business and like all businesses they are interested in one thing, making themselves money.My broker took home $47,000 last month and he worked maybe 10 partial days. He did it by working in the industry for years and building out his own network one day at a time. Maybe you have money to spend and there’s something there that doesn’t come across in their website where they describe themselves as “educational” ($9k gets you half a year at Berkeley or UCLA) but it seems unlikely that you’ll get your money’s worth. I feel like you could just spend the $9k on advertising your own listings, make some bigger money in the short term, and impress a few sellers/buyers that will refer even more clients for NO additional cost. Or you could pay them $9k and still have to do the hard work I just mentioned?
What do the Indian youngsters think about their friends going abroad for studies?
Well Initially it would bother me a lot.I would often feel that I made a mistake by choosing Post graduation program in India and and should have opted for masters in USA just like many of my friends did.But the question is whether you want to pursue MS in US because “You want to” OR just because “Your friends are going to”.When I questioned myself about this, the answer I got was I wanted to go to US just because my friends were choosing it and I never wanted to .Yes i do miss my friends who stay abroad.I dont get to eat panipuris with them.I dont get to celebrate my birthday with them.Time difference makes things worse.But we make it a point to text each other on whatsapp (specific time set according to our schedule) ,make skype calls on weekends.I am happy for them for what they have achieved and they too are happy for me for my success.I still remember within a span of 2 days ,2 of my best friends left for US right after my birthday.I just wanted to hold them back tightly,ask them not to leave me and to choose some masters option in India .I would ask them to tell me a specific date of when they would return back ,Would they come to India to visit me once in 6 months or 3 months.But now I am aware of the fact that it was necessary for them to go abroad to pursue their dreams and its wrong to hold back a person when that person is trying to achieve his/her goals and dreams just because you are going to miss them.
