Weekend homework: Beat the Easter Rush

Earlier this week, I saw a church billboard that read, “Beat the Easter rush! Come to church this Sunday.”

Aren’t most of us attempting to do the same thing with wealth’discover it today before everyone has a mad dash toward big jobs and big wealth? The key, of course, is to keep on learning. This weekend, consider expanding your knowledge (and wealth) in persuit of these directions:

1. Read essays and books. My favorite book is Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and Charlie Munger (partner with Warren Buffet) always has intellectual ideas.

2. Keep going to school. The local university is offering a comprehensive summer course on how to run/start/manage a business when you’ve never been a business major. Know anything you’d find interesting?

3. Throw a certification or two under your belt. Your state government website will list gobs of professional licenses you can earn like property manager or licensed addiction counselor. A side job, maybe?
All I know is that most lending institutions require an appraisal before they’re willing to offer a prospective buyer a home loan. Guess what’appraisers charge a minimum of $400. For most certifications, you have to take a certain number of course hours, pay annual fees, and log a certain number of hours/projects.
