—sourcing goods like meat, buns, fries, drinks, napkins, straws, and more
from all over the world, and then pulling it all together so that the average
high-school-educated employee can be successful—you will have
developed your Midas Touch. You’ll have made it to the B quadrant, a task
few entrepreneurs ever achieve.
Which Quadrant Is Best For You?
You can find your Midas Touch in any of the quadrants. Many employees
climb the corporate ladder to great success and self-satisfaction. The same
is true in the S quadrant. Many professionals have developed very
lucrative law practices, medical practices, consultancies, and small
businesses. Your job is to now focus on which quadrant is best for you.
Which one will allow you to fulfill your dreams? If you are attracted to the
B and I quadrants, then both of us have programs for you. Donald already
has the mega-hit The Apprentice. It’s a crash course on the B-I Triangle
and, if you win on that program, you have an opportunity to work for one
of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time.
Robert’s organization, The Rich Dad Company, is in the process of
developing an ambitious program called GEO, which stands for Global
Entrepreneurs Organization. It will be a training program lasting one to
three years for people who are serious about entrepreneurship and gaining
the skills necessary to enter the B and I quadrants. In the first year you
will learn how to build a business in the S quadrant. In year two or
whenever you are ready, you will learn to expand your business in the B
quadrant. And in year three or whenever you are ready, you will learn
about the I quadrant. Obviously, Rich Dad’s GEO program will not be for
everyone. It will be challenging and will require an investment of time and
money, just as you would expect from any advanced training program.
GEO will provide you the teachers, the tools, the training, and the tasks.
What you do with them is up to you. If you have an MBA, then you
understand that your diploma does not automatically buy you a seat at the
board table. You must earn it, just like you must earn the Midas Touch.
There are no shortcuts and no guarantees of success.
A Final Thought
Everything of value in life must be earned. It was tough for Robert to get
into Navy flight school. Statistics show that the Navy accepts only one out
