Entreprenuers
I am sure most of us do not do enough of what we love doing. If we did, there would be less finger pointing and grumbling or asking someone else to fix it for us. Government is already in too much of my life 'business' - so look and find other resources to help create true entrepreneurs, and let the entrepreneur's create the jobs. Let's see parents step up a bit more to train their kids to find their path. There are lot's of books to read, people to talk to, and stories to tell of successes and how to avoid failure; even part time jobs for young people to learn about what interests them. And remember, if everyone was an entrepreneur, who would there be left to hire to help support a great business?

Creating entrepreneurs, not jobs
In school, I had to learn a lot of things - but it lacked the relation to real life.
And further more: I did not learn anything about the most important things in life: HOW to learn, communication with myself and others, going beyond your personally felt limit, responsability, leadership, money...
I had to learn this the best I could out there in real life - by trial and error.

But there were two institutions that really changed my life:
First: The Army. I served at the mountain troops. I learned about leadership and responsability... Not from a book - I learned it by real life experience and by example. And I had to go beyond my limit a lot of times.
Second: A network marketing company. I learned about communication - with myself and others. Again I had to go beyond my limits. This time I learned to sell, the hard way, out there in the field, by example. And I learned some valuable lessons about money.

So how could a government help creating entrepreneurs, not jobs?
Well, adjust the education... Let people make more real life experience. And get the teachers to make that real life experience, so they can teach by giving an example.

But the good thing is: We don't have to wait for a government or the system to change... It is all out there...
This goes especially to all the parents:
You don't have to spend a fortune on the right education. Get yourself books and read them. And try out the suggestions that are given there. Some of them will work out for you. Then teach your children by example. Don't blame others. Take control over your life and the life of your children.
And most important: get yourself a book on learning how to learn. Apply it and teach your children as well. Encourage them to read. So they can grow all by themselves... even beyond your limitations.

It is all out there. Some people tell you the "secrets".
Like Mr. Kiyosaki and Mr. Trump.
All my deepest respect and thanks from the heart to them.

Don't wait for others to change... Just get going...
I do my best too...

Entrepreneurs Instead Of Jobs
The current Government policy and all the politics support individuals as job seekers. You'll need a "politics" change to develop an environment suitable for entrepreneurial emphasis. Maybe the downturn in the economy will provide the requirted motivation for change.

The Loan
goverment should lent our people money, especially for those who need the money to make their own business.
And the money only can come to those people through the bank.

the problem is, is there we can trust that the bank would lend the money to those people, or they used that money to buy stocks,or else otherwise lend it to those who really need it.

the second problem is, the people who need the money are really use it to make their business not to spend it for something else and can't pay back to the bank.

thanks,

Financial Education at schools
Dear Robert,
the only things that I know about the U.S. economy is by your books and the cooperation that I have with two huge businesses that are established at the states.
On the other hand I live in Greece europe and used to work for a long time for the goverment but I also build an independent business using network marketing (my own business using an educational Sytem and creating entrepreneurs) trying to get out of the ratrace.
For a long time I was observing my coleages and friends investing a lot of money at th stok market, some of them (say) went well, some others (dont say) didnt go so well and they just not discuss about it.
Answering to your question I believe from the bottom of my heart that the only way (at least in my country were the laws about real estate are very different than yours)to get out of the rat race is to FIND A SYSTEM AND WORK YOUR BRAINS OUT TO CREATE SOME ASSETS FOR INCOME AT THE LEFT QUADRANTS, AND OF COURSE HAVING CONTINIOUSLY EDUCATED FINANCIALLY ALLWAYS HAVING ON MIND TO HELP PEOPLE GROW AND ACHIVE SUCCESS ALL OVER THE WORLD.
Teacher,
with my best regards,
a very humble student of modern entrepreneurs and successfull leaders,

Working Class Hero
Dear Robert,
I just read your conspiracy of the rich book and it is great! I Love it! I know that this is a little off the topic but I was just listening to the song Working clas Hero by John Lennon and since I just read your book that song makes so much more sense to me now!

No dissenters? Danger Will Robinson!
I am highly skeptical when I see multitude of people rehashing talking points without delving deep into the effects - pro and con - of having government creating entrepreneurs.

I'm really skeptical when I hear individuals imply that government is a bad thing and giving tax breaks without first securing jobs is somehow a good thing.

Where's the healthy skepticism? Wheres the deep thinking?

No offense, just an observation.
