Class envy is even more dangerous than racism in this country. You want to be rich? Figure it out. With all it's issues America is still the land of opportunity and multi-millionaires are made, or started to be made, every day. Most efforts involve long term approaches and blood-sweat-tears.

Arnold is a prime example. He spent years in body building to get the muscles that got him in the movies to start with. He's entirely self made.
