Giving Should Be Part of Your Debt-Free Strategy

Earlier this month i had the rare opportunity of listening to Robert Kiyosaki - the author of the best-seller 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' in person at his first-ever presentation in London, UK.

One thing that fascinated me most in all that he said was that when you're still working and trying to get into investment and don't have the money yet, you should apportion your salary as follows: 10% for Tithe (or charity), 10% for savings, 10% for Investment and to live on the rest 70%.

The point is if you're trying to get out of debt or be financially free, you should also make yourself a channel of blessing for others. As you become open to give, you will also be open to receive blessings, ideas, instructions etc that will lead you to where you want to go. For Christians the Tithe opens you to heavenly protection and blessings. This, i know, is against what most people say which is "Get all you can, can all you get and sit on the can".

Try giving, you might enjoy it.
