How To Get Rich

1. Pick something you absolutely love doing
2. Learn everything you can about it. Become an expert in it. Get to the point where you are contributing more to the body of knowledge than you take from it.
3. Be a frequent and active voice in your field. The idea is to build your brand.
4. Learn business ethics and be ruthless about adhering to it. People must trust your brand.
5. Do this thing for people, and give them more than they ask for. Be over the top with customer service - it's a dying art, and people are grateful for it.
6. Once people know your work ethic (or product), and associate it with your brand, you have set the stage to really grow.

I don't care what the product or service is. A guy that kicks ass washing peoples' nasty trash cans will do quite well.

With business, it's not the idea that makes the money - it's the implementation.

When you are giving her one use 2 paper bags. One for her head and one for yours in case hers comes off.

Seems like the BATF already cornered that market.

Is this a great country, or what???

stop having kids, to start
get painfully frugal
put your woman to work (day care)
then parlay your money

The wife would work for me if I start my own company.

I get requests to be an expert witness all the time. I thought it was a scam.

Easy. List out what you are willing to give up to get rich. The value of what you give up will roughly equal what you get.

Ah, the old arkansas two bagger

To many things I've done that I don't want anyone to know about for that.

Skip getting rich and learn how to steal cars so you can boost a new one at the dealer. (and then drive it like you stole it)

What do you like doing?

I mean . . . . besides "getting rich?" whatever the fk that is.

Pass the Dust he thinks he is Romney

Like in that other thread?

I like playing guitar, running, video games, learning about cars.

Get elected to Congress or get appointed as a federal judge...

Invest in the sins alcohol, tobacco, prostitution, gambling (don't gamble invest in gambling) and last but not least invest in death. Yep, open a mortuary, embalming business or crematory. Everybody gotta die sometime.

That will really help. You basically have two options;

1. Go horribly into debt.

2. Be patient.

Both suck.

Depends on how bad you want one!

First problem is that you don't think like rich folks do...rich folks wnat the money and not the Porsche..Porsche is OVERHEAD EXPENSE...

You got a day job, now you need a part-time business where your wife can contribute. Something you like that can make you some dinero..that you can save (low overhead expense). YOu will need to put in a bunch of years living at the bone..to build up capital. Way below income level. Ten years ago I could have suggested where you could have put that capital, but now...everything is a role of the dice...

All in all I think Big Cap stocks that pay healthy dividends along with Google and Apple are still good bets. Perhaps rental property
