Money management from Disney Scrooge McDuck
In 1940, Walt Disney
I created a new character named Scrooge
McDuck. This hero has accumulated a huge
state through hard work,
thrift and smart business decisions.
Perhaps a prototype cartoon Scrooge
was Endryu Karnegi, who, like McDuck,
I came to America as a Scottish
immigrants at the beginning of the century and amassed
huge fortune.
Once even a magazine
Forbes named the richest Scrooge
a fictional character - in 2013, it
supplies valued at $ 65.4 billion. Someone translated
the amount of its resources in the fictional action
- "several multiplizhilionov
dollars". Now Scrooge McDuck
a lot of the time he spends on
"Swimming" in his store that
get inherited by his nephews
- Huey, Dewey and Louie.
But we can learn
valuable lessons from those principles and strategies,
enjoyed this cartoon
hero.
1. humble beginnings
Like Carnegie, Scrooge
I started from scratch - in a single cent
pocket. He was cleaning the shoes as a boy
in Scotland, then it became a cabin boy on a ship
in America. Once I found more gold
egg and he made his first million soon
after that. Then he traveled to
around the world, where he was seeking opportunities for
business and eventually settled in
Daksburg, where he built his famous
"Money" house.
2. Education
McDuck, as well as many
successful business, I have never received
formal education because
I went to work at an early age. the
Still, he was self-taught and now
He owns a large library of books
a variety of studies. Scrooge firmly
He believes that knowledge - is power, and its first
step in the training of his nephews was
just explained that without the work
money does not get it. It also explains
nephews basic principles of economics,
such as the history of money and currency,
the importance of its permanent treatment and
the impact of inflation on the purchasing
the ability for a long time.
3. Investments
When it comes to
investment becomes Skrudzh Makdak
shrewd and stingy. It is very well
saves money, but most of
emphasizes the fact that his money
It worked for him. While most
Scrooge is in his state
proper storage, as Scrooge
It has a diversified portfolio,
which includes debt and
equity shares, real estate, precious
metals and other asset classes.
But it is important to be able to still
to choose the right moment and
idea, if you want to profit from
own business. For example, once in
his town there was a terrible event
and many lost their jobs. Scrooge is not
I frightened, and dropped his head and began to
of crops
culture on their farms. As a result, when
his crop arrived (and the people nothing
did), he could have set a high price
for goods - because he was in fact
monopolist in the agricultural market.
4. The work ethic
Scrooge and believes that
hard work and the first penny for it
- the first steps to success. but you can
do more clever things. many successful
businessmen and investors to understand how
create multiple streams of passive
income from various businesses such
as a direct ownership interest in the business,
which is administered and fully
controlled by others, royalties
income from artistic projects or
technological inventions or
possible lease of oil and gas that
may soon learn.
such common
forms of investment income as
dividends and interest, will also strengthen
your profit. Scrooge also acts
for the slow accumulation of wealth
For a long time - well, there
it is similar to Warren Buffett.
5. Budget and competent transaction
Of course, our stingy
drake constantly preaches about speech
the benefits of creating a realistic
budget, he does not pay a penny for
all he could get for free. AND
I never pay full price for everything,
he can get a discount.
Fictional character
can teach us many valuable lessons
in life. Skrudzh Makdak helped today
understand the basic principles of accumulation
money and financial management, despite
his difficult behavior. audience
any age can apply the lessons,
he gives his nephews about
the cost of work, savings and investment,
to start saving on your own
"nest".
