Roger Hamilton, a leading wealth expert and consultant in Asia, is the author of the international bestseller, "Wink and Grow Rich", and he is the creator of the Wealth Dynamics Profiling System. He made his first million in his twenties, and was financially independent by age 30.
Roger is the chairman and co-founder of XL Results Foundation, which is the largest entrepreneur network in Asia Pacific. XL Results Foundation is the publisher of "XL Magazine". "XL Magazine" is the first magazine in the world dedicated to social enterprise.
Roger encourages people to learn from their mistakes, and rightly so, because he has made many of them. He has made and lost millions of dollars in his young life. Today he enjoys building new businesses in Asia as a sort of serial entrepreneur. His first was launched during the Asian Crisis of 1997.
Wealth isn't everything to Roger. Passion is what drives him. Passion is that little voice in your head that makes you want to jump out of bed rather than hitting the snooze button. Getting started on the day ahead is so much more rewarding when you're doing something you truly enjoy whether it makes you rich or not.
Roger has his own way of looking at wealth vs. passion. Wealth isn't money. It's not what you have. Wealth is what's left over after you lose your fortunes. When your passion is money, you have nothing after you've lost the money. When your passion is something else, that something can help you build wealth once again.
Life is full of choices. Roger learned that the hard way while attending Cambridge University. His major course of study was architecture, however, he had a passion for participating on the rowing team. To complicate matters, his friends wanted him to get a job so he could afford to accompany them on a trip to Greece.
So many times we're also faced with several choices that are all equally important to us. When that happens, Roger likes to turn the choice into just one long question to get one combined answer. We can multitask at work, so why not multitask with our passions?
To become an architect, Roger needed to fill a portfolio. To go to Greece required money. Rowing made him happy, though. He decided to draw pictures of famous places for his portfolio, sell copies so he didn't have to waste time on a job, and use his free time for rowing. What a great solution!
