 Most parents in the be to protect children from the harsh facts of the world Delay awkward conversations and tend to lie to their children and because their minds are vulnerable These kids believe and leave in these lies in this video. I will be sharing nine lies poor parents tell their kids one money is bad when the issue of wealth is raised among kids Poor parents are quick to say the love of money is the root of all evil in the book rich dad for dad Robert narrates how his poor dad usually avoided the subject of money with the words I'm not interested in money unlike the wealthy parents who begin to teach their children about wealth and inheritance from a tender age Poor parents are often reluctant to talk about money with their kids Silence about the subject of money often makes kids presume that money is terrible and unimportant When kids get Enthusiastic and begin to ask money related questions some parents shut them up with a statement that money is bad Deep within them these parents know that the assertion is a big lie But they use it because they fear that the children would disrespect them if they found out that it is not like wealth is bad The family is just wretched it is wrong to tell a child that money is evil instead teach them that money only reflects the personality of a person a Right person uses money rightly in contrast a wicked person will use his money to perpetrate his wickedness To low-income families are poor because the rich stole from them When they do not have paints money as evil They try to condemn those who have money and blame them for the misfortune of the poor Many poor parents make their children believe that every rich person got their wealth through dubious means and by cheating the weak They are so quick to assert the wide gap between the reach and the poor is as a result of the supposed assumption that those who are wealthy Stealing from the poor to make themselves rich. This worldview is also called zero-sum thinking Because its adherents regard economic life as a zero-sum game Just like tennis where one player has to lose for the other to win The truth however is that most rich people do not become rich because they take from the poor Just because they create a greater benefit for others Jack Ma is the richest man in China with a fortune of thirty four point six billion dollars He became so wealthy because he founded Alibaba and other successful companies that meet the needs of hundreds of millions of his fellow citizens Three the government owes them a better life Although it ought to be the responsibility of the leaders to provide basic amenities to aid the standard of leaving of citizens It shouldn't be an avenue to lead a lazy lifestyle Many people are miserable today because they assume that since it is the government's obligation to supply for them There is no need to work Even when their mates are seeking for ways to get a better life These poor men still hope on the government to come and rescue them Later on when they're stuck in abject poverty. They blame the leaders for not salvaging them Sadly they pass the same mindset to their children the rich teach their children to work their ways into greatness Whereas poor parents blame the government and tell unending tales to their kids about how they would have had a better life If the government of the day was better This mindset passed to kids makes them develop the entitlement mentality and cause them to be lazy for Low-income families are poor because they come from a poor background a study carried out by Thomas C. Corley Revealed that 41% of the self-made millionaires were born into a poor family Many poor people tell their children that when a person is born poor There is little or nothing he can do to change the status quo They cover up their state by saying that the reason why they are poor is that their parents were poor and make it Same like everyone rich comes from a rich family Starbucks founder Howard Schultz grew up in a housing complex for the poor Schultz once said in an interview growing up. I always felt like I was living on the other side of the tracks I knew the people on the other side had more resources more money Etc. And for some reason I don't know why or how I wanted to climb over that fence and achieve something Beyond what people were saying was possible I may have a suit and tie on now But I know where I'm from and I know what it's like other wealthy folks like Jack Ma Obro in free and the likes have proved that it is a lie when parents say I am poor because my parents are poor five Play it safe Life is a game of risks and those who take more risks are the ones who make their life count The average poor person is afraid to leap then again in many cases the parents project their fears on kids they tell them not to take risks especially in the aspect of finances because they are scared of losing Investment is one valuable secret of the rich folks Yet many poor parents do not get involved in investments because they fear the outcome in the same way They advise their children always to play safe They will always recommend their children to get good grades in school so that they can have a stable and high-paying job Poor parents warn their children against venturing into any form of business or investment and Corrigeing them that by saving they can become rich or at least average Maybe their counsel is great for a child who determines to live an average life But for the kid who has big dreams of becoming wealthy the play safe rule is a fallacy Six the harder you work the more you earn Poor people are quick to complain about why the entertainers make so much money Whereas the hard-working school teacher goes home with sick pay What they don't understand is that wealth is attracted to numbers your earning is directly Proportional to the number of people you efficiently serve in society Directly or indirectly thus when your audience is broad your earnings multiply The fact is in this world those who are the richest are not necessarily the hardest working individuals Poor parents tend to overhype hard work, especially physical work Self-made millionaires like Robert Kiyosaki's rich dad encouraged their children to work smartly To network with people who are smarter than them to learn financial intelligence and think of better strategies to solve problems No doubt hard work is needed to succeed, but smart work works better The term the harder you work the higher your returns is an outdated lie told only by poor parents Seven if you can't afford it you don't need it in other for their egos not to get bruised The safest response that poor parents give to their kids when they ask them for something They would love to have they would love to have is we can't afford it and since we can't afford it You don't need it parents who use those words and their children suffer from a scarcity mentality They feel afraid there isn't enough of something and it will run out before they get any So they just conclude that as long as it is almost out of their reach They should not have it they bombard their kids with the same scarcity mentality and make them feel like they do not deserve Even the least of their desires Eight the reason I'm not rich is that I have children According to Robert Kiyosaki his poor dad always said I am not rich because I have children But in narrative of his rich dad was a whole lot different as he always said I must be rich because I have children many poor parents make it seem like their state of poverty is because they have too many children But then whose decision was it to give birth to a lot? While rich parents strive to be rich because they want to leave a legacy for their children Poor parents never stop complaining about how they are not rich because they have children This complaint is a lie. It is not the presence of children But rather a lack of proper planning. That is why they are unable to meet up with responsibilities Nine don't mingle with the rich kids. They will corrupt you many four individuals are very Intermediated by the rich that they forbid their children from mixing with kids from a comfortable home They often tell their children the lie that kids from the rich background are corrupt and they may influence them Negatively and make them lose the good virtue. They have been taught this assumption, of course is not valid In fact many wealthy parents take it as a point of duty to discipline their children If not for anything else but for the sake of their reputation Whether a child turns out good or bad is not only based on the child's background It depends on the virtuous taught to them when you stop your child from hanging with their rich friends You deprive them the chance of having a feel of how it feels to be rich and being determined to become rich some day You may not know but lies told to kids have a significant influence in their well-being If they don't come to reality soon enough the results may be drastic
