    This situation is very common,and it comes down to two parallel realities,which is,biology and financial behavior. So,join me,as I break this,into simpler steps,and sentences for better understanding,are you in?

    Why people struggle when young(financially)

    From the perspective of Robert Kiyosaki,and in reality;

    Most young people,today,are taught,by their parents, society,and environment,to work for money,& not build assets. They focus on active income(salary),& not financial education,or investments,that develops or grow them,gradually.

    In their early life,they grow,will low skills,or none,at all,low capital,and poor money habits,which is what, causes the struggle phase, in their younger age,most times.

    And in reality;

    If you don’t build assets(Like business,investments,skills,of your own) early,money will always feel scarce,or far away,even if,income rises later.

    Why health declines when it’s time to “enjoy”?

    This is rooted,in human biology,and lifestyle accumulation,which simply means that,the health part,is caused by the healthy habits,we ignore,when young,that comes together to affect us,when old,and out lifestyle, during our younger age.

    Because,the body naturally ages,which slower metabolism,causes,weaker repair systems.

    And,years of poor nutrition,stress,and neglect,catch up later,in life.

    And,many only focus on wealth, especially,during their young age,ignoring health habits.

    Scientific truth,chronic diseases like,Hypertension,Type 2 Diabetes,and Cardiovascular disease today,are often,lifestyle driven,and cumulative,not sudden.

    The core problem(connecting both)

    People delay both, especially young people today;

    ° Financial education

    ° Health investment

    So later,they;

    Struggle early, because of no assets,in their control or name.

    And,they earn later,but by then,health is already damaged.

    The balanced solution(what actually works)

    Build financial intelligence early,as a young person today(& assets,not just income).

    And,invest in daily nutrition,highly recommend, nutritional products,or you can just balance your daily diet,in food,and preventive health(not hospital care,later).

    Think long term,in both money and body.

    Bottom line,

    You don’t suffer because of age,instead,you suffer because of years of unmanaged, habits.

    So,build wealth like an investor,and protect your health,like an asset, because,both must grow together,or you will trade one for the other,later in life,is choice thing here.
