All of us desire more wealth. Simply put, if you had more money, your life would improve. You could do more of the things you want to do. You would have more freedom and you could invest that money to generate even more wealth.
Whether you have a business idea, a potential investment that you feel has great potential or you wish you had more money to enjoy life, wealth brings the freedom to make your dreams come true. Often it seems that wealth and money are elusive and scarce in your life. How can you change this? How can you make wealth a real part of your life instead of chasing after money?
If you were to ask some of the world's wealthiest people how they became wealthy they would tell you that making money was never a problem. They saw opportunities to generate wealth all around and they never really thought about it as a problem. This is a mindset and a character trait that you can duplicate in your life also.
Your Attitude Towards Money
Do you find yourself worrying about money or fearful that the bills aren't going to get paid? Are you living paycheck to paycheck with a feeling of impending doom surrounding you? Do you fear poverty and focus on the money that you don't have instead of what you do have? Are there underlying negative thoughts or a hatred of the rich in the back of your mind as you look at how little you feel you have while rich people squander money?

The Secret Wall St. Doesn't Want You to Know By Keith Hawk

I pride myself in being an honest person and doing the right thing no matter what the situation is. I will always be this way due to how I was raised and taught by my mom and dad; the values ingrained in me: always strive to do the right thing, and when you can, help others. Unfortunately, not everyone shares this same viewpoint, especially in the industry I have chosen as a profession, the financial industry. I felt like shedding some light on a taboo subject that isn't too widely known: how do Wall St. and the big brokerage houses actually work, along with how everyone in the financial industry gets paid and why.
In the financial industry, not all "financial advisors" are created equal. Everyone calls themselves a "financial advisor", "wealth manager", or "financial consultant". Even a CFP® (Certified Financial Planner®) has bias and conflict of interest depending on who he works for. Don't be fooled by titles because titles can be deceiving. The reality is that there is bias and conflict of interest due to how someone is licensed in the financial industry. I can't stress this enough.
There are typically four relationships you can have in the financial industry: a relationship with a banker, an insurance agent, a commissioned broker, and a fee-only investment adviser. The banker and insurance agent handle safe money... money "out" of the market, whereas the commissioned broker and fee-only adviser handle risk money... money "in" the market.
