Savings-A Wealth Building Principle

Over the past years I have read numerous books, attended various seminars and listened to countless cd's on wealth creation. In all of this I found a wealth creating principle that every successful person would agree was fundamental in their creation of wealth. That would be the importance of savings. Most would even say that it is not enough to just save, but would go as far as to encourage a savings of 10% of all you earn. Some of these highly successful people include Robert Kiyosaki, author of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad books, T. Harv Ecker, author of Millionaire Mind, and founder of Peak Potential. Another teacher of this principle is Janine Bolon,founder of Smart Cents Inc. and author of Money, It's Not Just for Rich People.

Even though most financially successful people would agree on the importance of saving money in creating wealth, not one of them can explain why. The why is not as important as the knowldge that it works. Like in the days before Newton when the Law of Gravity had not been explained it was not any less important to be careful not to fall from a high place, it is not any less important to live the principle of savings. Maybe someday somebody will be able to scientifically explain why saving money is important in the creation of wealth, but until that day I choose to save and enjoy the consequences of living this principle
