" Average people think the road to riches is paved with formal education. Rich people believe in acquiring specific knowledge............." The masses are convinced that master's degrees and doctorates are the way to wealth, mostly because they are trapped in the linear line of thought that holds them back from higher levels of consciousness. The wealthy aren't interested in the means, only the end......" where is EMG when you need him.............
it's a common thought to think getting a master's degree will have you networking with rich people and open up tons of doors. or it's a way to have poor people that one degree so they will never be poor again. lol. then they have to pay 200k after interest for a degree that is likely only good at the top schools. same with college, to an extent. rich people are good at using other people. exploitation. very good at it. they know you need money, and use your emotions so you take less and they make more. self-absorbed, narcissistic, and very paranoid. the key is to pay off the house and have no debt. that freedom will allow you to at least think you are "rich". then go from there. if you won't have your house paid off until you are 60....well, .....i paid off the house before having kids, and i understand why others don't do that; however, that will keep you relatively more poor. lol
Perhaps the best book every written on getting rich is Ken Fisher's 10 roads.... Its extremely accurate without any of the typical whining, sour grapes, and inaccuracy of other books of this nature--like millionaire next door and other nonsense garbage. http://www.10roads.com/author-ken-fisher/default.aspx enjoy, surf
Wisdom. The article is best summed up by my favorite word: sux Rich people live below their means? Oh really?
Ah Ken Fisher. He smat man. Very very smat. I don't get the get rich by being rich... and famous. Don't you need to be famous first and then you become rich thru fame? Also, he forgot steal it illegally and become rich. He also forgot screw/take advantage of your family/friend to become rich.
