Yes. Increase your financial IQ, as it were. My wife and I run a service business to keep bread (organic) on the table, hired our first coach, researched, and are now purchasing investment properties that realize >= 9% on investment, and since they cash flow, continue providing returns. In addition to all of the tax advantages (we live in the US, so US tax law, but similar elsewhere). Now we just hired our second coach, and will be learning paper asset strategies for cash flow and for capital generation to continue purchasing real estate. FWIW: I think that we are successful so far because we believe in ourselves and put in the hours and sweat.
