Since I have known Robert Kiyosaki through Bo Sanchez' (or was it Jomar's?) articles, I have heard also of his board game Cashflow 101. This I read from Larry Gamboa's book 'Think Rich Pinoy!'. I had no idea about the game, it's just that it was always mentioned in Larry's book. Imagine adults playing this game every Wednesday night in Makati? What's with it? Larry said it is a simulation of one's financial life. The goal is to get out of the rat race (within an hour, I think) and you can do that if your passive income surpasses your expenses. Hmmm..?
Since my life here as an OFW is not that exciting, (hehe), I am always online: checking my emails and keeping in touch with family and friends through Facebook. And it is through Facebook that I happen to see an advert of Cashflow 101 here in Abu Dhabi. Of course, I will never pass up on the opportunity of playing that game which has intrigued me for so long. I signed up for that event right away and waited for the day. And that day came..
And did I enjoy it! I was able to join twice but never got out of the rat race! Sad :(. But what that game taught me and the other players is that in life, you should take risks and grab every opportunity that will help you increase your cashflow. You should have a passive income much more than your expenses to reach your goal - and that is to get out of the rat race.
I am very thankful I have signed up for this event and met wonderful people, people who became friends and who will walk with me and guide me through obtaining financial freedom.
These people are from IMG - International Marketing Group - which I consider a blessing from heaven. To know more about IMG, check this out:

Right now, I have renewed hope, eager to start building my wealth (yes!) and look forward to my retirement with no worries! Cheers!
I'm a single mom with grown-up kids, and by that I mean, they're old enough to take care of themselves (so I think), that's why at 45, I applied for a job here in Abu Dhabi, and almost 4 years later, I still have nothing to show for all those years of work in terms of savings. Quite embarrassing, really, and frightening too.
I'm just glad I found and met people, online and real, who inspired me to do something for my future before it's too late! (I believe I still have a future!:) )
First, it was Red Denal. I don't know the guy, but he kept sending me emails about some guy named Trace Trajano, whose dream was to make millionaires out of every Filipino! And that's through real estate. Buying and selling real estate through "laway lang ang puhunan". He conducts seminars (for a fee) and teaches and coaches those wanna-be-millionaires. But the thing is not for me, for I am here in Abu Dhabi and I have zero idea about real estate business here.
Trace and Red are somehow linked with Bo Sanchez, a preacher because I found his website through these two. It seemed they were in the same circle or they promoted each other's websites. To make the story short, it was Bo who really inspired me. I subscribed to his website so I get a dose of spirituality and positivism every day. I joined his www.trulyrichclub.com and subscribed to his emails (Soulfood and God whispers) which really lift me up every time I read them. I even went to PICC to hear him preach every Sunday after mass when I was on vacation in the Philippines for a month. I really thank God for Bo! And from Bo, I found Robert Kiyosaki, Jomar Hilario, and Larry Gamboa. And these people have one thing in common. They are rich!
And that's what I want to become...
Thank you Bo!
