Rich Engineer




Incase you skipped Poor Engineer, let me start with my education spill.  What I am going to show you uses the most basic accounting and finance foundamentals.  I have shown you how to determine net income and exactly what a balance sheet is and a liabilty statement.  If you don't know what these are, or want to learn more about these concepts in a simple, well written format visit RichEngineer.com and follow that advice.  If not continue reading to learn from the Poor Engineer.

The Rich Engineer went to school and got the same Engineering Job with the same salary.  Also to make life easier he also had the same basic Expense Statement.  How did he use his Engineering Job better than Poor Engineer?  Look at his Balance Sheet.





As time goes on one of his assets would be his 401K.  Notice the difference.  Some stock that has increased modestly in value.  Rich Engineeing also borrowed $6000 for a down payment on a duplex (which was his first home purchase) and is currently renting out the other side for $700 per month.  So his income statement looks like this:
So instead of spending $800 per month on rent the RichEngineer spends $800 dollars on a mortgage payment and property taxes.  He is then renting out the other half of the duplex to increase his revenue per month.  Not to mention the tax advantage of running a real estate business.  At the end of the year he is able to deduct money from his taxes which would reduce his monthly expenses even more.
In summary I have shown you the most simple way to get yourself out of a rental and how to increase your income by 14%.  Consider that the RichEngineer will take advantage of lower taxes, building appreciation, and is able to easily save up money for the next down payment to buy another duplex that would gross him 1400 dollars per month and net him 600 dollars per month!  Now do that 10 times and you have easily exceeded your monthly salary with passive income.
