                   THE Two THINGS

                          You INVEST




      Robert's View
    t     Myrich dad often said, "There are onlytwo things youcan invest: rime




       and money." He also said, "Since most people do not invest much time, they
      lose their money."
          Using the 90/10 rule of money as a rough guide, I would say that 90
       percent ofinvestors invest their money, but they do not invest much time.
       And the 10 percent that make 90 percent of the money invest more time
       than money. By the end ofthis book, you will know why Donald and I make
       so much money, gain much higher returns, and use less ofour own money.
      We can do that because we invest more ofour time than our money.
          Look at the following diagram of three investors. I think you will
       understand the relationship between investing time versus investing money.





             NON-INVESTOR.     PASSIVE INVESTOR.  ACTIVE INVESTOR.
