Or do you just think it is silly and people will be fine as employees and not striving to become a “B” or an “I’. If you are less familiar with this, E = employee S = self employed B = business owner I = investor. As an employee, you work a job and only make what the position pays. Self employeed, If you stop so does the money, business owner, people work for you and allow your efforts to duplicate and an investor lets money work for them. What do you think? Also keep in mind if a young person wants to retire they will need over a million dollars to live their retirement years and most jobs will not do that for us.
