Cashflow Quadrant

The Investment Mindset
Left Side = How Much Does It Cost Me?
Right Side = How Much Money Can It Make Me?
Wealthy
- Cash Flow (to pay expenses + lifestyle)
- Purchase more cash producing assets (Grow wealth)
Middle Class
- Capital Gains (Buy And Hold)
So how do you create "arbitrage" or passive income?
Creating space between the borrowed money (OPM) and what an investment pays.
Wealth - Cash flow - Arbitrage - Leverage
- Income Producing Assets (Apartment Building, rental property, insurance policy, business)
- A lender that is willing to lend against the asset as collateral (leverage)
- Income that is larger than the loan payment and expenses related to the asset
