Being smart with $$ -- Acquire assets, not liabilities

Rich people acquire assets and poor people acquire liabilities says Robert Kiyosaki in his book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad." It's probably true most of the time.  Acquiring an asset (buying an investment) means your wealth grows with investment returns.  Acquiring a liability (such as getting a loan to buy a luxury car) means you keep making payments of principal plus interest on the loan.  Assets snowball into more and more wealth.  Liabilities snowball into a bigger and bigger drain on your paycheck.  Acquire wisely.
