Newswise — Near the end of every month, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) Public Affairs Office issues a news release with the latest U.S. existing-home sales figures. The releases include analysis and quotes by NAR’s chief economist, Lawrence Yun, regarding the sales volume, prices, inventory and interest rates. On January 23, 2015, the NAR will release its first report of the year, covering sales for the month of December 2014. Pundits and journalists are looking forward to the report, as it will likely set the tone for home sales during the new year.

Anthony Humpage, Chief Executive Officer at Legacy Education Alliance, Inc., operators of Rich Dad Education Seminars, is also looking forward to the upcoming report. But he is neither a journalist nor a pundit—instead, he has parlayed insights by one of today’s foremost financial experts into a thriving business that teaches ordinary individuals how to harness the real estate market to build their personal wealth.

Mr. Humpage has successfully leveraged the lessons of the best-selling book Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki to create live and online seminars, courses, training, tutorials, and coaching and mentoring programs that teach the public about real estate and financial investing. All the seminars are led by experienced professionals who teach lessons sharing the practical educational tools and wisdom necessary to better their lives.

Anthony Humpage can discuss the following:

• Why MORE is better than BIG: In the realm of real estate, Rich Dad Education’s real estate experts teach why it is far wiser to take advantage of low interest rates on mortgages by investing in rental properties rather than buying or building a bigger home, as many people choose. • The trends that have allowed Mr. Humpage’s company to grow and why these programs have touched a collective nerve in today’s socioeconomic climate here and abroad.• Why a more financially savvy population can help keep the economy stable and potentially forestall another recession.• Some of the specific advice Rich Dad Education offers and who attends their seminars.

In our challenging economy, knowing how to make the real estate market work for us is a valuable skill. The seminars Mr. Humpage and his colleagues have designed can potentially help many who might otherwise be unaware of the opportunities available to them.
